I have rearranged my bookshelves on the principle of
things I actually read go where I can reach
and things I inherited can go behind everything in the back corner.

McGuire, Huff, Bujold, Cherryh and Duane are now on the nice visible shelves next to me.
Other stuff got sort of stirred around and I am not especially confident of finding it again later, so this is a work in progress.

But somehow the book stirring process has made a space on the shelves suitable for putting plural books in.
Which basically never happens.
I am puzzled yet pleased.

Today I have done two loads of laundry. First one is all put away even. Second one is in the dryer.

The laundry bags/baskets are still full. They started full and they are still full. That is not how geometry is supposed to work.
The newer bag is the gigantic ikea one and it is full even though previously the smaller one was just kind of overfull a bit. Or apparently a lot.
Expanding laundry.

I have also been listening to more Dalek Universe. I think I would like them better if I wasn't tired. But they are quite good.

It is so weird sometimes to realise how long it has been since the TV canon Big Finish is picking up and running with. I mean they are still doing 4th Doctor adventures. But even these 10th Doctor ones are featuring someone from 16 years ago. Entire human beings got invented and grew up since he started.

About twenty years since Torchwood. Seventeenish since Ianto died.

I saw https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cddnn2rn0v7o Ianto's Shrine is scheduled to come down soon due to the wood and iron under all the pictures and that being all wore out.
I acknowledge that the Shrine existing in the first place is a bit nuts, but it's a cool sort, where we decided a story mattered enough to keep passing it along.
There's a petition https://www.change.org/p/save-ianto-s-shrine but I kind of don't see what else they're going to do about it.
Cool if they could though.

I'd still like to go and see it but since I haven't been more than a half hour walk away from my flat since 2020 that is a bit Maybe I Personally Could Visit The Moon. Only a bit though, it's still there and only taxis and trains away, I'd just have to be a different me to get there.

Like Flux next weekend https://seanharry.com/home/flux/
that looks brilliant and exactly the sort of thing I liked to do when I liked to do things.

My plans for this month instead involve attempting to get my hair cut again. Which involves several challenging parts. But has been achievable goals.

I am a bit frustrated by how small I shrank everything. Tricky to get growing again though.

I shall persevere.

Also, listen more Doctor Who and finish the drying on this laundry.

After I got so tired yesterday I scheduled today to be Just Resting
but it is still not fun to be tiredness level feelings weeble wobble.

I listened to some more of Big Finish's Dalek Universe. Is okay. I think the ingredients, 10 getting drawn back before the Time War and meeting another Time Lord, are pretty good stuff, but I also think I Am Tired today so Is Okay.

I have been contemplating how to rearrange my bookshelves. There are shelves below bed level that simply never get read, and a lot of authors shelved in weird inaccessible places simply due to alphabetical order. I have forgotten who is down there really. The ideal solution is to move somewhere with enough horizontal space I can get at both sides of the room, or indeed to be a person who doesn't fall out of a single bed so the bed gets thinner, but since neither of those are doable, I contemplate which books to banish below read level.

I think it'll probably be mostly inherited ones. It's not that the classics of science fiction are bad, it's just that I don't think I've read them all even once, and the ones I have read I don't spend much time thinking about. Keeping Huff and Duane and McGuire and Bujold and Cherryh up where I can read them is key, I've reread all of those recently and I still buy their new work. Asimov may just have to deal with the floor height view. But then I feel like that's unfair and I should really reread things I'm sending Below? Just to be sure? But there are so many.

I also moved a bunch of things to make room for the work and that means noticing they exist again, and in some cases wondering why I still have those. But doing anything to not have items is More Work. So at the moment they're all stacked up in unusual places.

I wonder if anywhere still wants VHS tapes.

I'm sorry I'm not very interactive, just, got tired.

With any luck the work with the power tools and testing the fire alarms multiple times a day will be Over and I can sleeps whenever. That'll be nice.
