books: good materialism?

I just bought 48 books.

All in one go.

They are Bible commentaries and will be very useful for the rest of my life, and are in boxed sets (which you can only get from the States).

But I feel the need to confess. In general terms I don't really like "stuff". But I have this glaring weakness for books! I love them. I keep them. I don't throw them away. I have them catalogued on an online database, with their ISBN numbers. I am a book geek!

I got most excited by one of these yesterday. Geek I tell you!

Anyway. I should go back to doing something sensible!

That's not geeky! That's one of the coolest things I've ever seen. It's pure genius! When you run out of book shelves you can still fit in more books!

Remembering What I Enjoy..

Occasionally I forget things. Some stuff like birthdays, names and stuff is a normal human thing, and I don't sweat it so much. But I also forget some other stuff which is not so good. I forget what I enjoy. I don't know how it happens but it does from time to time. And its at these moments that I need a bit of help remembering. So- this is a request for help. What do I enjoy doing? What gives me joy? Leave me a comment.

Who will rid me of this meddlesome...

... piano? It occurred to me yesterday as i nursed ANOTHER bruise on my arm.. that I have had a piano sat in my hallway for 2 months! It seemed like such a good idea at the time but apparently is not... its stuck there and everytime I walk down my hall I have to squeeze past the darn thing- often not successfully! A number of options lie before me: -chop the thing into several hundred pieces -find lots of people who want to move it.. to where I'm not sure -sell it -give it away -pray it away It goes next weekend.. even if it kills me... which it might.. hummm
