clearing things out | free books!

i'm constantly noticing things that i don't use, that take up space, that i don't need anymore, i could do without, etc etc. you get the point.


so i'm gonna try something new that i'm calling clearing things out. it's me offering my stuff to the internet to see who wants it. you just need to let me know that you want it via comment & i'll mail it to you, hand deliver it (depending on where you stay), or maybe we can even meet halfway! 


to start this off, i noticed i have a few brand new books that i thought i would read, but am positive i never will. if you want any of these books, leave a note with a creative idea for how you'd want the book delivered + book title of your choice + a way to contact you.


i'll probably pick the ideas that make me laugh out loud. and if that wasn't explicit enough...i really.really like things that make me laugh.

*i'd like to offer some commentary on each, but that usually only works when i've read the book.

o LA: day 1

A library patron muttered under his breath, "You're so distracting," while I walked by after taking pictures of people reading their books. Mind you, I was probably a couple hundred feet away when I took the pics so as to not be distracting. Apparently, this guy was studying so hard he didn't notice anything around him.
