The New Spinning Bookshelf

Macker and I are the proud owners of a spinning bookshelf.  We bought it from the Virgin Megastore that’s going out of business on Union Square.  I haggled for it.  100 dollars to 75 dollars.  I picked it up with my Plymouth.  It required disassembly to fit in my backseat.  I had to scoot my seat way up like I imagine a Smart Car is normally situated.  There it sits beneath our clock.  I feel lucky we have a TIME magazine subscription.  It gives our room the feel of a bookstore.  Like a café in a bookstore because it’s so close to the kitchen.  There’s a slot for a plaquard on top that may soon exclaim, “Book Shelf.”  There are several slots for further signage that may soon describe, “Eric’s Books” or “Mackenzie’s Books” or “Our Books.”  It’s kindof blocking the door buzzer, a wall socket, and the thermostat but it’s a small price to pay for the benefits of a spinning bookshelf.
