sob and moan

You'd think rearranging bookshelves is a matter of joy. Bah, I say.

I have discovered missing books, among them Dubravka Ugresic's The Museum of Unconditional Surrender and Kolatkar's The Boatride and Other Poems.

I am in a very bad mood. Also, I find I cannot write the reviews I must.

Oh, plus three rejection slips in as many weeks. 

Somebody give me some good news.

F: Whoa! I. guess? (Love their bookshelves/window but not sure how a private residence that pretends to be an art gallery is a 'townhouse'.)

Shakespeare received 73 rejection slips for "Hamlet" alone. True story.

"I have discovered missing books..."

If you have discovered them, isn't that good news?
