The state of... well, nothing much

[kitanzi]

Ok, I'm just starting my day at work and one co-worker is attacking another, who is laughing hysterically, with a stuffed cat. It's good to see someone enjoying their.... work. (Actually, they're a regular comedy team here, and often one of the good points of the job. *G*)

ACat is, hopefully, still sound asleep, or at least trying to be. He was up to 3:30 AM doing work from his home computer, and it looks like he also got a big chunk more done on our book cataloging project. He got some nifty software for making a database of our books, and since we picked up a nice box full of them at the Book Nook this weekend, this is the time to start cataloging them if we're going to. We're both book fiends, so better to get this started before we start REALLY expanding the library. Once we get a handheld scanner this is going to go FAST, but in the meantime it looks like he's taken the total entered up to about 170. Busy, busy - and very tired. :) I don't know if he was truly even awake enough to register being kissed goodbye when I left for work.

Having put up that meme yesterday, I've gotten several flattering and thoughtful replies. I'm finding I don't quite know how to respond to them, though - it's odd. I'm not sure quite why it's so difficult, but it feels like it's rude not to. Silly of me! I'll try to get to them some time today, anyhow.

Does anyone else find that the web method of journal entry randomly snips off the last character or two on most entries? It's rather irritating, but not quite predictable enough to compensate for. Bah..

Urm. No. I use the web for all my LJ entries, and I don't find that it snips off anythi

Har har har. So, seriously, do you?

[maedbh7.livejournal.com]

Yes, I did. In fact, if you edit entries, it snips an extra one off everytime you edit. YOu'll notice I sign my entries "-H..." Well, it used to just be "-H"; the "..."s are to compensate for exactly that problem. -H...

But what drives me nuts is it's not CONSISTENT. I've tried that, and it will usually snip off either one or two. *shrug* Yeah, a string of ... does solve it, but I really would like to know how MANY will show. I'm just picky, I guess.

Hrm.

I've not seen it, no.

I've seen it, and I slightly suspect it may have something to do with the preview option, but as you say, it's not consistent....

It's snipping them off yours and adding them to mine, I think. :)

Once upon a time....there was a three bedroom house. Time passed. The walls grew shelves and the corner bookcase reproduced...and reproduced and ....you get the idea. The bedroom furniture disappears from two of the rooms and the only bedroom became victorian crowded as the masterbedroom became wall to wall bookcases and the spare a walkin closet. Lo' , I have contained the monster said the house occupant. All the bookcases live 'here'. Huh! Said the shelf mosnter and the bookcases reprocuded again and again and spralled all over the house. Get a jump on it early, lass! Or you too will face the bookcase monster!

ROTFL! Well, that's what we aim to do. ACat remarks that cataloging these makes it depressingly clear how few we have, compared to his earlier, pre-fire library, but we're working on it! *G*
