slipped my mind
Trying to write more frequently is difficult when I'd let so much time pass without posting anything. I didn't even post a link to the most recent threadless $10 sale (sorry!), surprisingly.
I've forgotten a few other things lately. Earlier this month*, for the first time this year, I incurred library fines. They raised the rates this year, some doubled, and I redoubled my efforts to get everything turned in on time.
Or at least, I meant to do so.
Considering I check out some 50-60 books, CDs and DVDs a month, I'd say that's pretty good that I went so long without slipping up. And even then, I only owe them forty cents.
Cheap though I may be, I must admit I've gotten a lot of entertainment out of them for forty cents.
* I suppose it's somewhat telling that I can't even remember what day it happened - considering I meant to remember it to write about it that's pretty bad. Good thing it wasn't anything important.

You might want to check out http://www.libraryelf.com/ as they email you a really nice email of what you have outstanding and what is due in the near future. The really cool thing is you can add multiple cards to your library elf account and get them all in one email, grouped per person. You do have to give your account details over, but how much damage can you do with my library card?
The 'Elf is in fact a great site, and I've used it many a time. Their RSS feeds are pretty neat, except that I was returning books the morning after they were due (which is fine by the library) but the feeds would be updated at Midnight, and it would show everything as overdue. But that's me gaming the system, not Libraryelf's fault.
