Cordelia ,'Dirty Girls'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I've felt like I'm fighting a cold for over a week (though it seemed to go away a few days ago, but then yesterday it came back) AND today a migraine wants to start because of this stupid weather. And then we had a storm and lost power for 2 1/2 hours.
I am eating tater tots for dinner and about to watch Mean Girls while Tim camps with his family.
again, I am not sure why you all do not live in the hood and can't come over.
(also there are 2 houses within a block of me for sale if anyone wants to be neighbors for the next 3-4 years). Joking aside this would be a not horrible place to retire/relocate for a bit b/c it is cheap, central to lots, and 15 min to a Int'l airport.
She does provide excellent airport taxi service!
I think it is time for me to get rid of some books. Easiest cull is old books that I bought because they are old, but I am not a book collector, so kinda silly. I will never read them, for fear of damaging.
I've become very draconian about books. If it's a mass market paperback that I don't want to keep, it goes in the recycling bin. Non-fiction that's either current or of general interest (Hubby's dinosaur book collection) goes to the thrift store.
I've got a couple of pulp things and a handful of hardcover novels from the 30s and 40s. Then a dozen or more Young Reader Classics types from the 50s.
2 books tossed, 17 to take to half price. I eliminated double stacked books on 1 whole shelf.
If I get back to reading and tackle the kids/ya books, I might be able to clear off another half shelf in a bit (assuming I will not want to keep most of the ones I read).
Speaking of reading things, does anyone here digital subscriptions to Marvel comics? Do they come out the same day they do on paper? Do you get them through Marvel Unlimited?
I have been reorganizing the whole house to avoid dealing with my books. Do you want to come and cull through my books next?
I could do it via skype with you in pieces if that would help. I did that with meara.
I don't re-read much so I tend to tell people to be brutal with getting rid of almost everything you have already read, especially if you use libraries or have an e-reader.
