I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

Nope. The owner died but his wife is still running it. They moved a few blocks down on Melrose, though.

Oh, PLEASE. A few days ago, she was saying that the organizers hadn't said that the essay had to be truthful, so she didn't see what the big deal was.

Gloomcookie! I'm so glad you're here. I was just coming in to tell you about the Children's Book Recycling Center. While they have lots of younger stuff, they usually have a fair amount of Middle school/YA that they can't offload because most people who apply work with younger kids.

I still plan on going through my classroom library and sorting and getting rid of books. My goal is by Feb. 1. So, I should have stuff for you then.

Also, my mom got into a car accident (when she was in a parking lot of course) in my miata. How will this fuck up MY insurance?

Just learned that the power has been out at home for a number of hours.

My poor, eternally connected housemate has apparently used up all of his battery power and is now forced to read, like, books, on paper!

I guess I'll stay here instead of leaving early.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

How will this fuck up MY insurance?

I think if it causes your rate to go way up, you can get it back down by signing a form stating your mother is not allowed to drive your car (and therefore is not covered by your insurance). At least I saw one insurance company in California that had that option.
