I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Hey, Numb3rs watchers--what's up with the guy who was a spy last season being back with the team? Double undercover or a frame job or something?

He was double under cover .

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

WHEE! I just listed like 10 more books on amazon and a rocking chair on craigslist. Yay productivity from the couch.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What kind of books? I was just thinking this morning that I can't believe there's nowhere in NYC I can really sell my junk paperbacks, but would it be worth it to sell them on Amazon?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Jesse, I've found it works best for genre books - romance, mystery, sf/fantasy. Recent bestsellers too. Otherwise you don't generally get a lot of action. It's rare to get more than a couple of bucks apiece, but hey, that's better than nothing.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm singing the praises of BookMooch, which I just joined this week.

I have those! So I could get a couple of bucks plus shipping? Maybe I'll do it. What if they're just in OK shape?

I am about to go to this wedding with no bra on. This is not a good week to test me.

I list things as low as 25 cents, but that is just because getting to a PO is easy for me and they all have the Auto-machines. Anything that does not sell in this batch is getting donated to my library.

Huh. Maybe I'll try it!
