Wet socks and cloned books

Post posted by Sacha on October 22nd, 2009 at 16:18

As I’m writing this, my wet socks are annoying the hell out of me. Most of the time, I act before I think and so I always walk outside on my socks when I know I shouldn’t. Today I was prepared: I knew I had to go outside, so I put my shoes next to the door. “There is no way I’ll be walking on the cold, wet concrete outside”, I thought.

One hour later I was walking cheerily after the men who were going to repair my washing machine, totally oblivious of all the plans I had set in motion before. I guess you understand I totally forgot to put on my shoes, making my feet wet and cold. But it don’t matter because I have a washing machine that operates!!! Yeah :)

While I was waiting for the repair men to arrive, I was taking pictures of my books. My books are so incredibly awesome, they deserve to be photographed. Today I took their picture without myself in it, because by now we all know what I look like when I hold books.

It took me about as long to take pictures of the books alone as when I take pics of me and my books. It was hard, because there was always a book that had a shiny nose, a book that wasn’t paying attention, a book that looked kinda fuzzy so its title was unreadable or a book that just had the awesome idea of stepping out of the picture. Aargh.

In the end, I did manage to get them all to look in the same direction, stand still and smile:

Bookcase

I’m very proud of my books and of the way they are all standing there, next to each other. Ain’t they cute! I love them all, but some more than others – don’t tell them, some might get jealous and start pushing others of the shelf.

Some books have clones (like Dark Art: that one has been cloned a few times on my bookshelf and I have given one clone to a good friend of mine). Other books will have clones soon! And very soon, a complete book ABOUT clones will be added to my collection. Awe-some!

And now I’ve had it with these cold feet! I am going to have me a washing fest. Let’s see how good that machine has been fixed.

    Fuzzy books are the best. Fuzzy, slightly out-of-focus books. I could spend an hour just thinking about them. But that would be a waste of time.
