I have about 150 books (not including stuff for work, stuff for my husband’s job, etc.), roughly half of which I haven’t read. when I moved most recently, I got rid of most of my books (too hard to carry them up 4 flights of stairs!), but I couldn’t stand to get rid of the ones I hadn’t read yet—after all, there’s so much to look forward to!

my real problem is this: I constantly have a list, maybe 10 or 20 deep, of books I want to read. this overlaps somewhat with the books I own, but not entirely, so I’m always acquiring more books that are on the list, and also heading to the library.

I’ve done it once, opting out of a ph.d. program with a m.s., and it wasn’t half bad—the thesis writing was much, much less time-consuming than I’d expected.

this time, however, I’m in an actual, terminal m.ed. program with a much more carefully defined curriculum. I’m so bad with authority, guys.
