Sorry, hon.

The answer is yes.

On the bright side, it can be put off for *years*...until you've already replaced half the books 'cause you forgot you had 'em.

Not that I'd know anything about such things...

It's especially fun when you marry someone with the same/similar college major, particularly if that involves literature. And you realize you've ~already~ got two copies of most books...

:-D

At least you can trade in the extra copies for credit at a used book store.

All my credit is being left behind to those who don't appreciate it's worth. :-/

I haven't yet had a chance to seek out used book stores here. Or the library, for that matter.

I'm thinkin' they must exist, though. Isn't this coffee shop and bookstore territory, kinda?

In other news, there's an inexpensive concert next weekend - a guitarist I like. Woo-hoo! And it's in Centralia, of all places, so it shouldn't exactly be hard to navigate to, traffic wise.

In other news, 24 teaser from today's newspaper...

President Logan takes measures to impede Jack's progress; Vladimir Bierko re-enters the picture.

Don't we now have Bierko, Henderson AND Audrey in the CTU medical unit? (or is Henderson just in a holding cell?)

We had both things happening to us on Saturday and Sunday... a lot of the things in the garage were books and such that Rose had left behind in San Antonio when she first moved to Austin, because she didn't have room for them. After a few years, she couldn't remember what had happened to them, so she bought new copies.

Occasionaly we'd open a box that had been damaged and find books or comics not worth keeping inside, and I'd say, "Don't worry, I have a good copy of that one..."

I'm not sure about Henderson.

He really should be put somewhere deep underground or something...they aren't gonna break him, so they just need to make sure he doesn't get away - ever again.

It's gonna be a wild ride tonight, no doubt about it. Coming down to the wire pretty much.

Big question is, is Miles heading there?

I sooooo want to see someone (Chloe, preferably, or Jack with Chloe looking on) bloody his smarmy face up a bit. In painful ways.

Hehehe.... I don't think Talon and I have too much overlap but there will probably be some. Our technical books are different at least.

As much as I want to see Miles go, I'm thinking they may let him redeem himself when he realizes what's going on.

I don't think so. He's too much of a suck-up to go with the "rebels".

Did I actually write that?

Well, hopefully you're right.

They killed Edgar, Tony and Michelle. They should ~give~ us Miles.

You could give The Shoes to Mr. Beepy.

I actually don't want to see him go down in any heroic or sympathetic way... maybe he just gets a nosebleed, or a paper cut, and demands admittance into the clinic, crying like a little girl :~D

And Palmer. And Heller... maybe (I don't completely believe he's dead yet).
