Minus one plus four equals...

So, how does it happen that my pile 'o books keeps growing, you may ask? Well, it happens when I take one book back to the library and walk out with four more. *facepalm*

I really was planning on picking up only one to replace the book I was bringing back. Logical, yes? Keep the pile at an even three books out at a time. On Monday, I then would probably have to replace two, but the third would most likely still be unfinished, so no lag time. And I wouldn't have to worry about keeping track of a great pile of borrowed books.

Alas, however, I roamed. Roaming in the library for me is like roaming through a pastry shop with free samples everywhere. I can't keep my hands to myself. And so now instead of my reasonable three borrowed books, I have six.

Oh, well, none of the new ones are especially long, so I should easily have all six books read long before they're due back.

On the 20th however, it's going to be a library feeding frenzy as I'm taking Thursday and Friday prior to the Memorial Day weekend off, and I plan on many days of reading and napping. Perfect vacation! :-D But that means, I'll need to take my canvas book bag with me after work and fill it up. What to choose? What to choose?
