Cleaning out, a little...

[which_chick]

I accumulate things. I try not to, but it happens anyway. One of the things I have accumulated over a lifetime thus far is books. I like books. I like books a stupid amount, but, and here's the thing, I do not... go back and re-read books very often. I own books I have not opened in twenty years. I own books the titles of which I do not know and the contents of which I no longer recall. I have an entire room devoted to books that I haven't read in twenty years and honestly I'm starting to think that's kind of fucking dumb especially since I haven't bought a fiction dead tree book in literal years and I do most of my reading on my phone these days.



I am thinning the herd. I need the space for other things. I want to refloor the book room which I cannot do because it is covered in books. I want space to put my... crafting stuff besides the fucking living room. It is time and I am done with having this many damn books that I will never read again.

Having Books is not a fucking personality trait and I don't need to do it and I can get rid of them if I want. So there.

I am keeping SOME books but there will be a grand culling, here. A Grand Culling. It's going to take months, but I have A Plan.

I own a fucking dumpster. I can throw things away if I want. And I want.

(You can Judge-y McJudgerson all you want. I am tired of the weight of them and I want them gone and fuckitall, they are going. I did this with my DVDs and CDs a few years ago and I did not regret it for one fucking microsecond. I will have to hide the Grand Culling from my family because they will not understand the issue or the decision-making process. However, what they do not know will not hurt them.)
