*looks through all the bookcases in all the rooms in the house*
Nope, no mass-produced paperbacks here!
I even categorize by the dewey decimal system. Some people might think I'm a little obsessive.
No one HERE, of course, but some other people might.

I do. J2 has all the books arranged categorically. Sort of like the liquor cabinet.

Moony, you didn't get the memo? Well in Asia 2010 is The Year of the Dragon, but in the good ole U.S of A it's The Year of an Eye for an Eye according to Boobs
Now to clarify, I do have the Kindle...I upload my favorite books to that...you know the ones that I would like to read more than once. This saves me from searching my bookshelves. I still buy books though. I NEVER turn the page down either. I always use a bookmark which of course has been known to be the receipt I got when purchasing the book.
When I am done with a book you could read it and never know it was read before. I get this from my mother. Her magazines "True Romance" being one of her favorites could be resold without anyone even know it was read from front cover to back.

Plain old alphabetical here and I don't bend pages, not even in extreme emergencies.

Deet, I mean you walk into a room to watch tv and "sense" that something's not right, and it turns out a book is out of order or something. Not like you see it on the table, when it should be on the shelf.
Gotta watch those spines of the books, too, people!
No creasing!!

You people are freaks.
I like my books to have the "read a million times" look and feel.

Hunky Nick just left. Sigh! The oven is in and working. Yeah!
He has to come back on Friday to finish some electrical panel stuff. Now how could that wire have gotten pushed up behind that beam?
Oh, and I'm becoming one of those old professor types with huge piles of books in every room. I need to purge.

Posted: 1/5/10 at 3:48pmI had no lunch today and am so looking forward to dinner. My cousin had made stuffed cabbage last week and put a couple in the freezer for me. I haven't had that in years. And she makes it just like Babci and my mom did!

Just got back from lunch with a big boss/friend from the mothership. Nice lunch, nice man, and a nice break for the day.
I am reading the True Blood series now. Those are mass produced paperbacks that will be given away when done. So, those pages are just screaming "bend me." (which sounds a bit dirty for some reason).

"Oh, and I'm becoming one of those old professor types with huge piles of books in every room."
I'm married to an old professor and I can attest to the huge oiles of books everywhere. It's a documented syndrome. With me, it's piles of magazines.

Having lived in DC, I can assure you that that's not uncommon
