About meI'm a housewife, see the picture? That's totally what it's like around here with me and my husband and our two small children and two large dogs. "Tidy". That's the word I would use to describe it. That, or "quiet".

R.I.P Kurt Vonnegut - and thank you.

About my libraryI'm still deciding if I want to include the kids' books. Right now all the children's books I've entered were mine before I had the kids. But I truly love a lot of their books and would probably keep them even when the children move away someday, should they be so cruel. Please leave a comment if you have an opinion about this. Really! I have poor decision-making skills. I definately didn't add my husband's books. I can't deal with having a "football" tag. Unless it was something I would actually consider reading, I left his out. So what you see is just what I like. There's lots more books in the house than this. Hence all the tidy.

I know, I know! I can't believe I don't have internet at the condo yet, but as soon as I do that's the plan of attack. We might have to go to Napoleon to get rations for the lock-in. PAIN. AU. CHOCOLAT! SCHNELL!

I still haven't scanned my Goreys, also.

I meant "scanning", not "not scanning".

Did you see how I fixed ALL my covers?? Such glee, such glee. The only dishonesty was that not scanning the plain, coverless cover of The Young Visitors was too sad, so I used the one you have.

Deep envy that you get to go pillage M&D's. Hands off my boxes in the attic! Unless you want to bring them to me.

Oh man you passed the 1,000 mark. David and I need to go to a book sale and buy more books to catch up! Keeping up with the Wilsons' :)

You are the good! So we go through or inventory to see if any new book covers come available for the books that don't have covers. There, of course, was not a cover for the "The Giant Devil-Dingo." Then one magically appeared and it was you!! I think that we are the only three LT users who have this book. I was sooooo excited to see you had the Devil's Dictionary, Flowers of Evil and Behind the Attic Wall. No one I know has these books and they are some of my absolute favs :) D-Ro

I wash my hands of the juvenile fiction issues. It's all y/a to me. I chose nonfiction only bc I only wanted to tag either fiction or nonfiction and I thought I might have less nonfiction (unconfirmed).

All I have left to add that I have here are my Goreys. I cannotr BEGIN to express the agony I feel that so many of my books are still in boxes in mom and dad's attic.
