Today I tackled another bookcase and one of the boxes of books I took to the used book store was full of coffee table books. This is always a bad idea because coffee table books are heavier than most and they’re also less likely to be taken by the used book store. I suppose if the coffee table books didn’t all say “National Geographic Society” or something else semi-pedestrian, they might be worth something, but really I was just adding to whatever workout I had at the gym by carrying these things around.

On the positive side, one of my dad’s lesser purchases (a bookcase that broke as soon as he started loading books onto it) is almost empty and just about ready to be taken to the dump. The cleaning of the house slowly progresses!

So getting up early at 5:30AM to catch a flight and then arriving back home due to travel complications at 1:15AM is probably a good reason to be tired. (You should also notice that I wrote yesterday’s post from my iPhone in line at the ticket counter. It’s very choppy as most iPhone postings are.) I went to the gym today after a nap and I knew I was tired during the warm-up. I slogged on, however, and didn’t end up DFL though I tried.

And now I would like to post a picture of the hideous yellow rental car I had yesterday, but I’m too tired to go through all the gyrations I usually do to scale the picture and copy it and paste it and etc. Alamo was really kind of strange and said, “You want a compact? Go to that row and just pick one out.” Since I’m always forgetting what the hell my rental car looks like, I just got one that was bright yellow so I could find it in a parking lot. It worked out pretty well, actually, though it was kind of smelly and gutless like a good rental car should be. You all will just have to wait for the picture.
