Oh, hello. Come on in and help yourself to some pizza! It’s still warm.
I am a geek. I admit it. I’m the stereotypical bookworm who has too many books. I love books. I love reading. (Jeez! could I say “I” more frequently??)
Anyhoo. The problem with too many books? Sometimes you end up with duplicates. That? is way annoying. So one of the apps on my iPhone is a spreadsheet on which I have a list of every book, both on my Kindle and on my bookshelves, I own. Also, I keep a list of the books I have read. Is that a little OCD? I can’t tell. It has helped with the whole purchase of dupicates, though. So I guess it’s a win.
Geeks Rule!

We are all geeks. We all love cake. We all love books. We are like online soul matters. Freaky.

This is where I would like to be. But I am too busy buying and reading books to have time to catalogue them.
I own, and have owned many duplicates in my time. I like to think this is keeping the book industry going, but really, it is just me being hapless, useless and lazy.
*thinks*
Mary… how much would you charge to catalogue my collection?

i think i could catalog your collection from photos. and i’d be willing to give it a shot. 🙂

I did the most painful thing ever this weekend. I went through all the bookshelves at home and actually got rid of some books. It almost killed me. Even getting rid of duplicates broke my heart. But it was necessary—the shelves were starting to groan under the weight. I just had to keep reminding myself that someone else was going to love them as much as I did.

did that break your heart?? it’s a good thing though. cleansing.

When I first saw the title, I read it as Greek, and I was wondering why anyone wouldn’t be proud of being Greek. I feel the same about geek, as I, too, am a geek. AND a nerd. AND a bookworm.
Thanks for the pizza offer, but we just had some for dinner for the first time in a couple of years!
