When we moved into this apartment I donated four boxes, packed to overflowing, of books to the Plattsmouth library.
I still don’t have enough book shelves to provide homes for all of my books.
And today, my friends, I went and bought more. It’s because of people like me that library cards exist, and yet I haven’t gotten around to getting one yet. My transcription courses are held in a library, and I haven’t gotten around to getting a card yet.
Anyway, I forgot to bring my recommendation list with me so all I got was Odd Thomas by Dean Koontz, and a couple Discworld books by Terry Pratchett. Nobody recommended Terry Pratchett, but I went and got them anyway. Because how can you go wrong with Terry Pratchett? And, all right, I also forgot what all you guys came up with. But I promise I’ll bring the list with me next time.
And I’ll get a library card. (<—That was my six, by the way.)
P.S. Found this at the bookstore. “Eating Star Wars chocolate, I am.” (another six! I’m on a friggin ROLL)
P.P.S. You’re a genuine geek if you not only caught the reference, but knew that Dagobah was missing an ‘h’.
P.P.P.S. Yes, I realize I’m incredibly sexy. *coughchokedie* Actually I thought that merely holding up the candy bar in front of the webcam would be obvious and boring.

I’ve got boxes of books setting about, too. I’ve been thinking of donating them to the library down the street, in exchange for a library card, but I can’t do it. It may happen when I stub my toe on one of them… for the hundredth time.
Haven’t read any of the Discworld series, but I’ve heard that I’ll like them alot when I do. Speaking of Pratchett, if you haven’t read “Good Omens” by Pratchett and Gaiman, you should check it out. Funny stuff in that leaflet… there were spots that had me literally laughing out loud.
Thanks for the six, too…

Oh I’ve read that one! The writing style reminded me of Hitchhiker’s Guide.

Speaking of Hitchhiker’s Guide, have you read any of the Dirk Gently books by Adams? Many funny.

Actually, I haven’t. I keep meaning to and then forgetting once I get to the book store. I’ll have to add it to my list so I don’t forget again.
