Apr. 27th, 2009 06:30 pmAs several folks have mentioned already, I know now what being 42 looks like. It looks a lot like being 41, except it starts off with me being a home (well, trailer) owner. I've already been to ColdStone Creamery for my free ice cream... dark chocolate with M&Ms and gummi bears. :) Tonight I scrape together the reserves and order a lasagna from Pizza Hut. My celebrating thus far has involved finishing my re-read of Stephen King's Christine, and my much delayed beginings of Gordon R. Dickson's Dorsai!. Yeah, I've never managed to get my hands on it before now.
Crystal and I hit the B.I.G. book sale, and I picked up more than a dozen books. Stephen King's Christine, Needful Things, Different Seasons and Talisman (with Peter Straub) were all found in hardback ($1.50 each!), as well as a copy of Winter's Heart from Robert Jordan. A stack of mixed paperbacks as tall as my arm is long was also procured, with Dorsai! and The Final Encyclopedia among them. I'm hoping to be able to make a list of the Star Trek novels I have already, so that I can start filling in holes. There was a small mountain of ST paperbacks to be had, but I couldn't remember the titles already in my collection.
Book sales make for a happy cabbit.
There will be food soon. This makes the happy cabbit even happier.
