I'm kind of disappointed in myself for not packing any books today, but I woke up late and ended up spending the day just enjoying the freedom of being alone. Plus, the next decision I need to make is about my sci-fi/fantasy paperbacks, and I really don't want to make those choices right now. I have several shelves worth of books by Piers Anthony, David Eddings, and Anne McCaffrey, and I really just don't know if I want to keep them. The problem is, if I get rid of them, then I'm going to want to read them. If I keep them, then I'll never think to read them. It's a reoccurring problem for me with this genre. Plus, paperbacks take up a lot more shelf space than I am really comfortable with.
Yesterday I managed to pack all of the manga that I am keeping, a good chunk of my 20th century literature, and my Hunter S. Thompson collection. 235 items so far, or maybe 5 1/2 shelves of books. Which leaves...maybe 14 shelves to catalog and pack, if I choose to keep them. Maybe tomorrow I'll be in a frame of mind to get back to work.
