ok, so you know how i have that severe book addiction? well, i just discovered that the bookstore on campus has a pretty great selection (i was going to hit branch's later, but then remembered that i signed the car-free day pledge)--i took a quick break to pick up the new lemony snicket and came back w/ a.l. kennedy's book of short stories (which i haven't been able to find anywhere!) and an order for david mitchell's cloud atlas (which seems sure to win the booker prize). they also have a pretty good graphic novel section, though my loyalty remains to second foundation.
having a pretty good selection a one-minute walk from my workplace is definitely going to cause me some financial problems.
i don't mind living on macaroni and cheese though, as long as i have good books to read. i can't wait to get home now!!!
(don't think i'm a total social reject, though--i'm probably going to see hero tonight, finally.)
in work-related news, i tried to convince the library head to order some magnetic fields (b/c, you know, the guy who writes the lemony snicket books is in magnetic fields) but i don't think he trusts my judgment. :)
