Sep. 13th, 2008 05:13 pmYou know, the only downside of this whole book-swapping malarkey is that you end up with a to-be-read pile that's teetering dangerously (mine is currently about 25 books) and when you combine that with charity shops and the library, it never ends! Hmmm. So I'm going to try and sell some of my better condition books on Ebay and if that fails they'll make a one-way trip to one of the charity shops I don't visit on a regular basis.
In other news, work has been a bit odd. In the privacy of my office, I've had times when I've been very much twiddling my thumbs and have ended up trying to find stuff to do. This is not of the good. I've decided that after more than 3 years in this job (yes, really) if something suitable comes up within about a 20-mile radius of my house, I'm going to apply for it, since I really don't like being bored, even for money and even if it does mean I can write at work.
Thirdly, probably because I've been taking cold medication, I've been having some really wacky dreams. The other night I dreamed about finding a ferret tail on the floor and it belonged to Buzz (I could tell because his tail has a kink in the end) and had just dropped off. The night before last I dreamed about giant fish. Last night was all about a friend of mine who just kept turning up on my doorstep when I wasn't expecting him and then would disappear equally as suddenly.
