More bibliophile goodness from Awful Library Books.

Watts once said: any attempt to define oneself is like 'trying to bite ones own teeth'. Anyway. I am an ENTP, a Four, a Libran and a Water Ox; scatterbrained, organised, coulrophobic, messy, hopeful, sarcastic, optimistic, romantic.
I ♡ freshly ground black coffee, travelling on trains, white roses, hugs, finishing crosswords, steak medium-rare, a well-turned phrase, big-brained scientists, the departure lounge, my homemade marmalade on toasted crumpets, hand-written letters, the possibility of aliens, the possibility of god, remote New Zealand beaches, jazz trumpets, the colour red, rom-coms, the information superhighway, organic shapes, the poetry of ee cummings, the Bach cello suites of Yo-Yo Ma, ad-free content, picnics, pay day, and a good night's sleep.
I live London with the techie beekeeping paramour (ash) and the furs (rex & badger).

Gosh, I wonder if I can get those on Gutenberg
I’ve been trying to get a copy of ‘Crafts For the Retarded’ on order. Wouldn’t it make a super gift?
How many times I’ve asked myself that question … What is wrong with my snake?
Crafts for Retarded what?
Gold. I laughed at the snake one especially.
argh!
Thanks for reminding me of those creepy pantyhose crafts.
*shudder*
Disturbing.
Did you notice that “I want to be a librarian” is Reference only? I bet it was the librarian’s favourite book and not allowed out of sight!!
‘Crafts for Retarded’ that is freakin’ hilarious!!
That goose is quite charming.
(Also, I worry about sick animals, including snakes. If I had a snake, I would read that book.)
omg. i spit on my keyboard with the snake one.
but…i have to admit something. i once was on the path toward becoming a midwife and i had that last one on my shelf. no joke.
xoxoox lisa
Happy! Joy! I shall send this to my library colleagues.
don’t make me laugh, I’ll squirt tea out of my nose.
