Well, I used to have kajillions of books, but I managed to divest myself of at least some of them. I had to--I just moved, to a different province, an there was just no way I could keep them all.

So I gave a bunch away, and released some, and sold a whole whack, and when I got desperate (bookstores just won't take computer books, you know), I gave some of them to the library. Of course, the library wouldn't take them, either, so I had to do it under subterfuge: I brought in a bagful of books and shelved them where they ought to go. I figured, okay, what's the worst that can happen? The library staff can find them and get rid of them. Better would be if people found them and and tried to check them out--much hilarity would ensue.

And now, chastened and de-booked (I believe I have a third fewer books than I did) and re-provinced, I have to promise myself I won't buy any more books. I don't believe it any more than anyone else does.
