Like Quixotic, I got a new pile of books in the mail today, so I wanted to do a quick post to show them off. I'm especially excited about Charles Vess' Book of Ballads which is beautiful and Ellen Datlow and Terri Windling's collection, The Faery Reel which has some illustrations by Vess. They're all wonderful and my bookshelf welcomes them warmly.
I've been sweating all day over detailing my car and I'm officially done with it. It seems I've been "officially" doing things lately, but I only do things if I make them "official." I have to tell myself that they MUST get done, or I will not do them. I'll say "later". But no more later. At least not for now. So now that I'm done detailing the car and entering the new books into LibraryThing (yes Jessica, I used the scanner), I'm going to put together the 3rd and final bookshelf and then I will OFFICIALLY be done putting together the bookshelves. My, those bookshelves put me in a bad mood. They're such a pain to put together and I tend to snap at people if they're around me while I'm doing so. Stay away from me for the next couple of hours....
