Water damaged books

This disclaimer automatically makes me disbelieve you. You were reading in the bathtub, weren't you? Full on bubbles and a glass of wine...


And for the record, Mr. Foolery, dad would have loved to have his books nice and dry on shelves in the house. My mother, however, was not the bibliophile that we are. She fussed until he packed all his books away, and that's how they ended up in the shed. Now, get your butt over here so I can go to the store. ;)

I don't treat my books that nicely. I bend the corners and crack the spines and step on them and leave them in my car and shove them in my purse and drop them in the bathtub and let my tears fall on the pages (and maybe some food that I'm eating). It doesn't mean that I don't love them, though. I do.
And I have a Maira Kalman book that I left on the floor below a box of wine (classy like that). Drip, drip, drip all night (we thought it was all the way closed). It looks kinda pretty, though.

*For the record, not my books. Just sayin'.
