Geek?

I’ve been laughed at twice (I asked for it the second time) in recent weeks for knowing the “English books” and “Norwegian books” identifier part of an ISBN number without checking. I also know the identifier for the Norwegian book clubs (De Norske Bokklubbene). If you’ve typed it enough times it sort of sinks in, and there’s a field for ISBN in my book cataloguing software.

I’ve got a longish post coming (to make up for the weekend draught), but I’m off to IKEA now – the catalogue still hasn’t arrived in my mailbox. If you want something you have to go get it yourself, obviously. Hm. Wonder if Linda is home…
