I knew I'd run into that problem with LibraryThing, especially because I'm also in the process of rearranging all my bookshelves (which haven't been organized since we moved here, 6 years ago). So I got a couple packages of shiny little sticky stars from Staples (say that five times fast!) and started stickering the spine of each book I catalogued. Now I can tell at a glance where I left off....
I've moved to Phase II of the process, which means I'm down in the living room going through the shelves there. I'm 13 books away from breaking 600, which will give me a good "stopping point" for today.
Hm. I've added a bunch, but only five are showing up in my "library". Did I do something wrong?
I was very good about adding books to LibraryThing when we first moved and started unpacking, but then there was a long stretch where we hadn't put the built-in bookshelves up yet, so most of our books were still in boxes. And then the shelves went up, and DH unpacked them all while I was at work, and I was so thrilled to finally have the books out of the boxes and back on display, the fact that they hadn't been entered into LibraryThing didn't occur to me until at least a week later. And the shelves are too high for me to get to while I'm this pregnant, so...yeah. I'm several hundred books behind.
I don't own enough books to get into LibraryThing. Huh.
I think "Starter Wife" is funny.
I just attempted LibraryThing, and it deleted my account while I was cataloguing. Fuck that noise, I don't need the agita.
Yes, I thought it was going to be all soapy - but it got more funny as it went on. Despite the, you know,
suicide
or
murder
, whichever it is.
LibraryThing appears to be having some difficulties today! The counting up function seems to be majorly broken....
Glad to hear it, Theodosia; I thought it hated me! I'll try again later, when it's had a nap and some milk and cookies.
Did everyone see what Paris Hilton's medical problem was, apparently? She wouldn't eat or drink anything, because she didn't want a guard taking a picture of her on the toilet.
