264467 I love your bookshelves! I especially like your do-not-read-this-shit category--even if I like some of the books, it made me laugh.

231470 Dammit! I've chosen YOU to compete with regarding how many books I've registered, and you're STILL ahead 50! Well I knew it would be a challenge, you being a librarian and all... :)

PS: I think you're the only other person I know who has read as many (or more) children's books as I have. It's such a great fetish.
