After over a year of tripping over and meandering around stacks of books on my floor, I finally got fed up enough to buy another bookcase. I have a weird organizing/cleaning quirk where I start on one thing and inevitably end up juggling several tasks. In this case: shelving books --> reorganizing CDs --> cleaning out crap from underneath my bed.

I'm only in Toronto for about 2-3 months per year for the past six years, so I tend to(re)discover weird and wonderful things whenever I sort my stuff. Random thoughts during the process:

- Why do I have a book on Java (computer not coffee)?

- I own a lot of Michael Crichton books.

- Ditto for plays and Canadian authors.

- Aww... Sweet Valley High, The Babysitters Club, and a handful of Archie comics.

- I have a book on penguins!?

- Ace of Base still sounds awesome.

- Whatever happened to Aqua, Jewel, and Eagle Eye Cherry?
