Apparently, I only post things that I see on Mitch's blog anymore. But I am a librarian, so I should probably fill in the book list...

Comments:
Its an interesting list you've got there. I've read quite a few of them actually, but I don't know the code for crossing out text.... I don't usually make lists of books anyway. Most just jump into my hands somewhere. ;)
okay, *this* cracks me up. i checked bloglines.com's list of recommended blogs for me--it recommends blogs based on my subscriptions--and yours was one of the first ones it recommended to me. i'm not making that up. i was floored when i saw it. i was like, "this can't possibly be *that* friday," and "she can't possibly be talking about *me* mitch," and "i used to call my clipboard my brain (but then, so did lisa k., so who knows)." anyway--totally freaky, because lisa's isn't even one to which i can subscribe on there (she doesn't have an rss feed). so i have no idea why yours was recommended to me--just karma. or maybe links back to me. i dunno. anyway, glad to have found you :)
