The sickness was side effects from tablets I think. I only actually threw up once. I just hate it coz it goes up my nose

Better now anyway, thanks :)

Today I have decided I'm gonna do a blog on one or two books each day. Of my old books I mean (printed <1950) I just took some photos of them now. Takes ages tho. Dunno which one to start with. Maybe I should group them into categories, like religious, fiction, political etc. It's so cool looking through old books. Does anyone else like old books? It's weird how my OCD doesn't seem to mind really old stuff  - it hates library books tho  :laugh:

Drove around 900km, from Paris to Hamburg. Managed to visit four countries today: France, Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany, thanks to my GPS redirecting us from traffic problems. ;D

Gee, I think I dated someone who was born in 1747.  Come to think of it, I'm sure I'm married to him.

I googled the first book, but I couldn't really find out what it's about. Please share...I bet it's an interesting book for the time it was written.

I wrote a short paragraph about it in my blog: (edit - i will pm u it lol)

couldn't upload photos tho because my computer's fucked. There are some other photos of old stuff in my blog tho if ur interested in that kinda thing

I have another book which is earlier than that one and u might be interested in too. I'm gonna post about it tomorrow. It's called "The Unexpurgated Case Against \Woman Suffrage," all about why we shuldn't give women the vote  :P That one's from about 1910 i think.
