Obviously my subconscious is dealing with the fact I'm off on a trip soon, as I woke up this morning in the middle of a dream about packing - extraneous things kept turning up in my suitcase and had to be removed in order that I could pack. And there was also something about the people at check-in going for lunch and taking their computers with them...

E.T.A. - Is it wrong of me to buy a book as a present for someone and then read it myself before they get it? I figure as long as I don't break the spine (it's a paperback) then it's not a problem.

Hmmm, IMO it is quite hard to read a paperback - even without cracking the spine - without it being fairly obvious that it's had a good thumbing beforehand! They tend to lose that virgin paperback page smell.

Or maybe that's just more apparent to me because I have to read the dratted things with my nose half an inch off the page...?
