I've yet again left Music for Airports at home. Grr.
Work continues apace. My hands are freezing, and I'm very spacey, but
I'm writing lots of code. My thing needs to be done by Friday, and I
may actually make that dealine -- especially if I can finish this
section today. That'd leave me three sections and two days in which to
do them, which is plausible if severely painful. At least I got to
bug-fix yesterday.
Jim and I put together four IKEA bookcases over the weekend -- two of
mine, two of his. Many (but not all) of my sf books are now out in the
living room, where they may be admired by visitors. Jim put all of his
shelves very close together to form CD-size spaces, and moved his CDs
from the haphazard piles in our bedroom to the new shelves. It looks
nice. I like having my books out; they're meant to be on shelves, not
cooped up in stuffy boxes for months on end.
Of course, a lot of my books _are_ cooped up in stuffy boxes, still. I
need to put together the remaining bookcase tonight or tomorrow, so I
can get the rest of my sf out and thus clean up my room (theoretically
my bedroom, but Jim & I share a bedroom, so I guess it's just my room
-- maybe it's my study or my office or something?) more, and someday
set up the table in there and have workspace. That would be lovely.
Plus I just have a general geek need to organise and inventory all my
sf before November, when I go to OryCon and thus again to Powell's.
Books are great sources of happiness.
