People Who Were Over the Other Night:
I was just looking at my bookshelf because I was bored and noticed that it contains "The Rules" and "He's Just Not That Into You." I would like to explain for any who saw it during the "bookshelf analysis and judgment" portion of the evening that the reason I have those books is because I was writing a book proposal for a parody book a few years ago right after the latter came out, but then abandoned the project because that's what I do with projects.
Kelsey Grammer's autobiography, however, I own in earnest and have read three times.
xo,
Lindsay
ps: this isn't the first time people have come over or anything, I just never looked at my bookshelf in this light before.

I always worry that when people come over, they're going to see my odd collections of books from OCD projects past - my Mormon collection (raised Mormon, no longer practicing) with a Bahadvagita I got at a Hare Krishna restaurant once, my Vegan shelf, my Conspiracy shelf, my massive amount of weird comedy obscure stuff, etc.

That was brilliant.
I was thinking of getting a conspiracy/CIA shelf myself.
