All biographies except the bible that my parents gave me when I was 13. They're on a single bookshelf with a bottle of 12 year old scotch and my Waterford crystal tumbler. The stack of books you describe reminds me of my wife's nightstand.<BR/><BR/>My lap top is on my night stand. We both read in bed, but I rarely have a book.<BR/><BR/>There are two lap tops in the living room (my wife's is used most. I have my studio computers. But every now and then I'm in the living room when I need to confirm something, so there's my 'spare' lap top). Our den is wall-to-wall books and a really comfy futon. <BR/><BR/>My studio holds 3 computers, down from the 5 I had before I retired. Of course, my studio has three 8' high by 4' wide redwood bookshelves as well. They're overflowing. <BR/><BR/>We live in a forest and hug trees. A whole family of tree huggers. I campaign constantly to eliminate paper and ink in favor of online publishing. All for the love of forests. <BR/><BR/>-blueBeau Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01570982615331590643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19630688.post-65099421374359376612008-04-10T01:02:00.000+00:002008-04-10T01:02:00.000+00:00Hi sarah,Love the list of books, I have books in s...Hi sarah,<BR/><BR/>Love the list of books, I have books in small piles all over the house, the bedside table, next to my favorite chair, on the book shelf next to my desk, and of course in a basket in the bathroom; as if I paused long enough moving from one room to the next, to be able to absorb the words on passing. I very much enjoyed your list and the thoughts it sparked. <BR/><BR/><BR/>:) brendaBebe Cookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18046181097808612184noreply@blogger.com
