About my library I probably have more books than I'll ever have time to read during my lifetime.

My friend invitation of a month or so back must have seemed pretty out-of-the-blue. Sorry about that - I hadn't realized at the time that there was an "Interesting Libraries" option, and I loved your catalog so much, I wanted to somehow link up with you. I frequently check out your virtual bookshelves for suggestions on future purchases. Great stuff!

If you don't mind sharing--I was wondering, what's your favorite novel of all time? Or novels?
Here’s wishing you a weekend filled with wacky whims, wonderful weirdness, and well-disposed werecats.

I see we share 66 titles, but, the reason I'm leaving this comment is that I saw that you worked in Plano - I did too, for about 6 years (many, many years ago) - commuting from downtown Dallas. I'm sure you're a regular at Half Price Books. I remember their original store! Same with the original Whole Foods store! I'm dating myself indeed.
Anyway, you've got a great name here. On a similar thread, I've started collecting victorian tear bottles - called Lachrymatories.
Tell me, what type of music do you listen to?
