Powell's buys books. You can mail them a box of books and they'll send you money. How much, I couldn't say, but they will pay the postage, so you can't really lose.

No boob-twanging!
I have uploaded some eagle, bay, mountain and tea pictures to hard drive from the camera, messed about sorting and culling and folder-izing the mass of random pictures already on my hard drive. Culled a bit of my email inbox, made the bed, scrubbed the bathroom floor, sink, and toilet, washed the breakfast dishes, eaten the excellent turkey sandwich H made for lunch, and beta'd several chapters from an ESL writer and sent them back.
I think I shall now go read pornfic.
I got up, ate breakfast, volunteered at the dog shelter for two hours, and then came home and napped for two hours.
Clearly you have all been way more productive than me.
We need to buy a new washer, and I am just bewildered by the options for new washers. Looking at Consumer Reports, the front-loaders honestly don't sound that great to me, and the HE top-loaders (without an agitator) sound like they have a lot of problems, too.
Maybe we can just get our ancient washer repaired.
I didn't twang my boob! In fact, I haven't hit anything, and have had no more string-whipped arm bruises since I drastically changed my grip after reading a library book. Yay libraries.
Anyway, I did kinda awesome actually. Not to shabby for being the first day back since I've been out for weather.

Ooh, thanks!
Steph, we have an agitator-less washer, and it's been fabulous. Much less wear and tear on the clothes. Most importantly, it doesn't eat socks or panties.
It's this one
Does it spin out so hard that the clothes have wrinkles that even the dryer won't get out? That was one of the big complaints that I read. The other one was that agitator-less washers develop a funky smell. Is that true?
I've been seeing ads for washing machine cleaner, which sounds so crazy to me, but apparently some people need it?
My parents have a top loading HE agitator-less washer (possibly the same as Bev's, I'm not sure). They haven't had either of those problems with theirs.
I have a front loader and I love it.
