Adventures in bookcases

Filed under: Cats, Life — Meryl Yourish @ 11:02 pm

My new bookcases arrived today. The office was empty and lonely without my books.

But the office started looking much better after the new bookcases were put in. I think I’m going to have to buy one more set of shelves, but I won’t know until the books go back in. Which won’t be until the weekend. Tig, of course, had to investigate.

And investigate.

And investigate. You know. Curiosity. Cats. That sort of thing.

If Gracie has set foot in the office since the bookcases arrived, I have yet to see it. I expect she’ll be fine by tomorrow, at least, until I start dragging boxes of books back into the office and putting them in the shelves. But she’s perfectly content in her spot by the railing.

I’m so excited. These are the first really decent bookcases I’ve ever had. They’re also the first that weren’t hand-me-downs. And just think, I get to alphabetize my books for the first time ever! Woot! (Actually, not so woot. Pain. But it will be done.)

Caturday is either late or early this week. Late, I think, since I didn’t post any kitty pics last weekend.

  3. I love getting new bookcases.

    I alphabetize my books and really enjoy it.

    Of course, a month or two later the books are all in the same big jumble they always are.

  4. Has Tig picked out the shelf that will be his yet?
