| The book saga continues |
| 07.10.04 (10:29 am) [edit] |
Well, i decided to go ahead and make a start on the sorting out. Before physically moving the books, i want a complete record on the puter so i can keep track of new arrivals and check what i've got by authors, see what i need to complete series and other stuff like that. First step is to write it all down and then transfer it - i grabbed my extremely large pad and made a start. I though to myself - stupidly! - that if A. saw me doing it, it would make him feel guilty, seeing as he's been promising for a long time that we're going to do this. Did it work? No - in a nutshell, i got told to move out of the way of the tv because he was trying to play cricket. So it looks like it's going to be and my notebook on our own for quite some time. I don't mind that too much - it's the actual moving of the books that i'm not up to at the moment so i need help. Is it going to be forthcoming? Not any time soon! On the bright side, my copy of White As Snow by Tanith Lee arrived this morning - 2 weeks after i bought it!! Never mind, one more Lee to be crossed off the list.
On the book sorting note, i've done one bookcase in the front room so far and a random shelf placed behind the tv. 167 books and it only took me 45 minutes to write them down. If i can do the rest that quickly, i reckon it'll take me about 27 hours to get them all written down. How long is it going to take to get them on the computer after that?!
