Why I Am Not Allowed To Go To The Library

An illustration.



(This is the pile after I made it smaller. I had to leave a whole load of these in Val's office, too, because you know, carrying books...)

Fffft, that's nothing. You should see the corner of my living room. And my kitchen table. And my office...

However, never has this icon been so appropriate!

[marshtide]

Well... yes. But that's just the books I picked out today... ;;;;;

Oho! *flexes muscles* I think a library-off is in our future. How shall this be decided--sheer quantity of books, or points for esotericism as well? But if we have to empty our living/working spaces of all library books first, it may be a long time before we can have the contest...

Think of it this way: every book you get from the library is a book you don't have to buy! And how can that be bad? :)

Unless I really love them; then I'll need my own copy of them so I can write notes all over them...

It's probably bad for my back if nothing else!

*laughs* Sure you can go, you just need to bring your own trolley. Or possibly a pack animal.

This was so much easier in summer, when the roads were clear and I could just load the back of my bike with a carefully-balanced pile of books and take them home that way...

Oh, come ON! It's winter, there is snow. Doesn't J have an 'akebrett' you can borrow? (Have no idea what that is in svensk or globish.)

So many books..!

Wait, was I supposed to disapprove? Well, um, shame on you. Loaning books and all.
