Good to see Powell's (Portland) and the Strand (NY) get their due!
Powell's is awesome.
My taut body.
Sadly, unlike the song, not everything is awesome right now. The paycheck was not quite as plentiful as I could have hoped. It is time to make some hard choices.
D:
I can empathize.

"Life handed us a paycheck, but we thought we worked harder than this" - Bury me with it, by Modest Mouse.
Sorry about the lack of paycheck Pat, but hey, you have the new job!
Surely the paycheck will get better,... right?
Right?!? ;P
Withholding is my bane. It is almost half my paycheck. (Granted my pay is poor compared to what it should be, but still,... HALF?!??) :/
But I'm also the primary (IE=Only) insurance provider for the entire family, so there's that. :P
Gratz on the journal Mothman, can't wait to read it!
:)
(NOTE to SELF: Get Off yer keister and get back on track with yer own friggin' journal! Lazy Wizard,...) ;P

My taut body.
<Wizard pokes himself in his mind's eye. Again.>
Nope. STILL can't unsee that. :/
My body is taut only after a really huge meal.

Yeah. Plus I found out they didn't input the exemptions I had asked for. So it was a big hit.
I cancelled just about everything I could, and hopefully I can make my rent.
Pray for my Auctions to go well. Threw up my signed Core Rulebook and Rise of the Runelords books. We'll see if they get any traction

For the next paycheck, I would confirm they are going to put in the exemptions!
I've been dying all week but let me know about those books I posted on earlier and I'll get a check out to (or paypal my wife has paypal) for them. ;-)

Awesome article. Only one I've been to is Foyle's (London) and that was before they moved. Unfortunately, none of those places are very close to me now. :-(

I'm having a hard time finding my Vampire books. They're in one of these darn boxes ...
Well, I did fix the exemption problem today. I really need to get this apartment squared away. I have been battling a sprained latissimus dorsi muscle I got from the weekend of crazy moving. I decided to stop trying to move boxes yesterday because it was just aggravating the injury. I think I have let it rest enough. Plus, I need to figure out what of my collection is salable.
OK. I found the stash of Vampire books. I have Ghouls, and New Orleans by Night.
Original retail they totaled $33. Get me $7 for shipping and we'll call it an even 40.
Oh and if you PM me an email address, I can send you a picture of my collection should there be anything else you'd like.
Ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow.
Ow?
You okay?
Concerned. What happened Treppa?
Oh, nothing really. Tough workout followed by two heavy days at work - lots of exercise. Everything aches.
Didn't mean to worry anyone.

Moving sucks
Plus my knee is killing. I should have gotten it checked when I took that spill at WHOI

Please be careful, the both of you.

Oh dear. Knees don't like hard floors/sidewalks. I was thrown on a sidewalk in high school, and mom took me to the doctor after six weeks. He said the cartilage under the kneecap had been bruised, pinched between the kneecap and the joint, and it would take about six months to heal. He usually saw people right about the six week mark, when they assumed it would be better but wasn't.
Knees are chock full of slow-healing cartilage. All you can do is baby them for months.
Hope yours feels better soon, Patrick.

they told me a beautiful woman would be my end. Still, math must be brought to heel.
Trig or Treat
I would have shot them turned the sprinklers on them.
Having never taken Trig, I would've just slammed the door..no candy.

Ah yes an Abacus, now that is a new bit of "tech" as the kids call it these days, that I can get on board with.
Hey, John. Hope you're having a good day.
Dang. That stinks. I hope you get things worked out on that front!

he's okay-ish. Loved his earlier works, his later ones get a little too sex negative for me.

I just violated my own "Don't Use Your Damned PayPal account for at least 3 months" rule by ordering rainbow colored dice. Given how many I already have, I realize now this is a sickness.
