Squeaky clean
I think I accidentally pulled a leg muscle while building an IKEA CD tower.
I have too many CDs. No, really. I'm guessing it's up to 800ish, extrapolating from CD tower capacity. No, I'm not in the habit of ripping CDs. My computer still sucks. I should remedy that too.
My apartment is still not clean. Well, not clean enough to not worry about my mom saying it's a mess, that is. It's plenty clean as far as I care :) Maybe I'll figure out some way to keep my mom from actually coming over until Saturday, and clean more tomorrow night.
I think I need a duck tower, too. I went to put the Mall of America duck in the bathroom with the other ducks, except there's no more room for him. I think I'm going to go see if I can't stir up a little bit of a rearranging of the guard. Hopefully the duckizens won't rebel against my quackpot scheme.

Re: Rip it! Rip it good!
Myself, I rip to Ogg Vorbis at 192 kbps for most CDs. The idea is that if I lose the CD, I won't lose much by burning from the Ogg. CDs that I don't care much about get 160 kbps or even 128 kbps. I'm a pig about open, unpatented formats, especially since studies have shown that Ogg is superior to MP3. Fortunately, since my software has a format converter, I can produce MP3s on demand, with a slight quality loss I'm sure.
