My God...(Jeremiah, no spoilers)

[maharetr]

Oh wow. I just watched last night's/early morning's episode of Jeremiah and I really should be calling computer places to get quotes on D link wireless routers (try saying that one over the phone when your Rs are indistinct!) but instead I'm sitting here dazed, hyped and desperately wishing it was Thursday night/Friday morning already.

Also, the Great Book Sort of '05 has begun. I've emptied my book shelves as part of a major sort/discard effort and I no longer have a bedroom floor, I have piles of books that must be carefully navigated around. Some of the piles are rather precarious -- it's dangerous in there.

Still, I should have it all sorted by Friday so there will be books for people to browse through and take at will. Anyone know of second hand places that take books for cash as opposed to credit? I don't need any more books! :D

Cash

If you have more than 50 books to offload, Elizabeths give cash. I did that last time I moved house.

Its what happens when your bookshelves are overflowing and you start eyeing off my bookshelves because they aren't double-stacked.

Or possibly when the piles of books get so high that your life is in danger because you would be crushed to death if one pile toppled.

The moral is: Buy paperbacks - less likely to cause concussion, easier to double stack and to fit in standard shelves.

Buy paperbacks - less likely to cause concussion ::Cackles::

Yup, that's pretty much what was happening -- double stacked shelves and life-threatening piles. That's too many :D

Dad's been getting addicted to eBay, which is great because all of a sudden we're getting broadband. (Whoot!) I'm more of a second hand bookshop person myself (hence the hundreds of books!). And thanks, welcome in turn to my journal :D.
