Heya, folks. I figured that last post was a bit weighty to leave at the top of the pile for too long, so I'm writing this little innocuous one to sit up here now, at least for a bit.
N-e-wayz...hmmm...nothing to say...heh...
I suppose yesterday was kind of a lucky day for me. I bought a pizza wheel at a home goods store and when the cashier learned that we were from the same country, she gave me a discount. Then, since my regular way home looked a bit jammed up, I took a detour, which led me to a street where there is a used bookstore I always make a mental note to myself to check out but never do and so, spur-of-the-moment, I decided to go. I bought a few books, nothing special, then on my way out I saw a pile of new arrivals, on which was sitting the new Oliver Sacks book Musicophilia (Oliver Sacks is a neurologist or something. You seen that movie Awakenings? Robin Williams plays a fictionalized version of Sacks. One of the bits of trivia I've learned from my newfound love of books. Did I mention that? Books give me a total boner these days) about what goes on in the heads of people who are addicted to music. So this book, okay, it just came out last Tuesday, and I had planned on getting it one day, probably online. But here was a brand-spanking new copy that I didn't have to pay shipping for. Since it's new, it's only in hardcover, and the cover price was a steep 26 bucks. But I was prepared to pay for it anyway. Then the cashier says to me, 'this is a review copy. I don't have a price for it yet. What do you say, 12? 12.60 with tax?' and I'm like, 'sure.' Wow.
Then today I went to a bookstore, one of the big ones, and that lady who helped me out when I was there last weekend was there. And I recognized her, because she's cute and she was really extra nice to me last time. Then today she was nice again, but she was equally nice to the other people who were there. And it made me so mad it did. I was like, you tart! Agh! We shared a cuddle in my imagination! I felt so betrayed, man. But anyway, there was a cuter girl there today who helped me out and I dunno, man, she seemed to dig me, I kinda felt a vibe there. Of course, now she thinks I am an atheist but really I am just curious about atheism. And now we will cuddle in my mind. Creepy.
