Teunis said that he'd had an idea while taking a bath, so I said that I hoped he'd at least rinsed off and such BEFORE being like "MUST GO TO COMPUTER AND IMPLEMENT SHINY NEW CODE!" Hahahaha! I reminded him about moving the bookshelves before his time here runs out (FINALLY thinking of Andrea's long-ago suggestion for hopefully getting rid of the mice to a great degree!), and I was quite willing to give him the time he needed to work on the code. It's not like earlier, where Chapters HAS A DEFINITE CLOSING TIME, but he did realize that for himself! After debating raising or removing or lowering individual shelves (stability reasons!), I helped pass him stacks of books, and even the surplus books on the table / my room / other places in the apartment had a place on or near the bookshelves in the new place near the table. (thank goodness there were no dead mice underneath!) I am VERY impressed with the shuffling and stacking skills he demonstrated in that twenty minutes! Mandy would say THAT is why I need to keep him around, haha...

Discussed cyberpunk, steampunk, hawtness.com (named for the author - might feature males soon!), TIMEWARP STORIES, EVIL WOMEN IN HISTORY (Cat was creeped out / scared by those!), coconut scones, spreadsheets for the book locations, Bathroom Readers, Diana Gabaldon, and random CBC programming. Also talked about heavy books being LOW, Bibles and such being HIGH (for honor), reactions to dust and dizziness (open the window and have some coffee or water!), EVE ONLINE black market economics, the US school lunch program (they mentioned UC-Davis in there... Farrah's school!), "solid" shelves, needing another bookshelf soon (Canadian Tire / Ikea / Craigslist?), non-communication, loud music, and more. Sure, let's rip off people while playing a game which is ostensibly about spaceships, but which also apparently can be compared to the New York Stock Exchange! Hahaha!
