Inevitability.

[kiya]

So with clearance to start packing things up again -- which I'd been thwarted from for a while, leaving it as a stray unfinished, aggravating task in the back of my mind -- I open up a box, put it on the dining room table, and start clearing off the top shelf of the bookcase there.

I get distracted by other tasks, go to deal with them, and when returning to work on the box of books, I find this.

I should probably have expected it, really.
