We’ve come back from the book sale with less than half our usual cull. By this point we own enough books that we’re not having to take what they have by the truckload. Sydney and I each found a few good books in our areas of interest, plus a few classical music CDs. Getting up early to stand in line seems to have tired us out, however. I think we both wish we could borrow some energy from the small spaniel we’re taking care of this weekend. Tongue hanging out, whole body shaking in excitement, that dog is happy. I can see how having a dog like him would be a good way of boosting self-esteem . . . until you realized pretty much anything on two legs that has a hand to pet him will get that kind of attention.
