Book Snob

Well, someone asked questions about books a while back, like how many books have you owned? I'm happy to say that I got rid of about half of my collection because I plan to move at some point and the less, the better. Besides, most of those books will not be read. Besides besides, the Internet takes care of most of the need to keep text books around. Apparently, I am also a book and language snob, according to an online quiz I took - so, I only kept the best books.

BTW, I started reading that Owen Meany book that the quiz told me I was. And because I really AM a snob, it's going back to the library. I haven't even gotten through half of it and I realized that it leaves me bored and unaffected, and, well, it kind of sucks. B-O-R-I-N-G. Life is too short to be bored by a book. Good bye, little Owen Meany




















BEFORE

I'm happy because my goal is to simplify, simplify, SIMPLIFY my life. The less stuff I have, the better. I want (envision this) spartan.

So, the plan is to move around some furniture and get rid of some of that, too.

    ...this must be "in the air" lately or something (altho I guess not as I'm offing so much of my stuff on eBay :)--evidently there are people out there who still want more STUFF ;))

    ...anyway. Bookshelves. OMG. I need them so badly. & they're so difficult to find around here via thrifting/yard sales.
