Yesterday, after work finished on the house, I went to Boarders and spent $99.98 on books. It's an addiction, I tell ya, an addiction.

'Tis time to work on final projects, but I don't have the inclination.

Is there usually a three month turnover here? Seems like a lot of people are leaving all of a sudden.

well my quote site isn't helping me out, but I think Erasmus once said something to the effect of "with what little money I have, I buy books. Then I buy food, clothing, and other necessities." I'm kind of strange like that - every once in a while I'll go to a serious bookstore and blow a hundred, or a hundred and fifty - but more often than not my books come from wandering into a little crappy bookshop and going "oh yeah... I don't have the new Hunter Thompson yet... well I need to get it sometime, might as well be now..." my collection grows more piecemeal than it does in large blocks.

I think my expectations are also set too high - hence I have so few real friends, but the ones I have are ubermensches.

Anyway...after a nice weekend, once more unto the breach...
