I felt a bit guilty about putting this little video together (my main book shelf, before and after my dear friend Bridget helped me fill it with my boxes and bags and piles and heaps of books) when I should have been studying, but then this little gem showed up and made it all better:

Good friends, good books and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life.

—Mark Twain

Enjoy. (No, there is no sound -- and yes, I successfully resisted adding lightning strikes, spooky fog, and old-time-film effects.)
