Houston is part of the 5% of the country that's not getting the Pats-Colts game, due to...some kind of airing regulations. I guess they have to air the Houston-Oakland game instead.

oh dear god, I forgot about the falling back so was at church an hour early - and then I thought mac had early chior practice, but it was not his chior - and then then I went to see Gone Baby Gone, which, while good, was wrong for me on many many different levels.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Ah. Oakland didn't sell out so the game is blacked out here and we do get Pats-Colts. It cracks me up that the loscal sportswriters are not even apologetic about their glee.

I drove up to the Concord Public Library to pick up a book that I'll need for school this week -- couldn't wait for Interlibrary Loan to come through. Pretty ride through lots of autumn color, and the library itself is fabulously pretty -- I spent some time just prowling about, looking at the busts and the Thoreau exhibit. There's also a Transcendental Alcove, which has two very comfortable overstuffed chairs and walls of glassed-in bookcases with the Complete Works in many many different editions.

Man, I must not have been paying attention this weekend, Musharraf suspended the constitution again.
I don't want to go to work tomorrow.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hey, Numb3rs watchers--what's up with the guy who was a spy last season being back with the team? Double undercover or a frame job or something?

WHEE! I just listed like 10 more books on amazon and a rocking chair on craigslist. Yay productivity from the couch.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
What kind of books? I was just thinking this morning that I can't believe there's nowhere in NYC I can really sell my junk paperbacks, but would it be worth it to sell them on Amazon?

Jesse, I've found it works best for genre books - romance, mystery, sf/fantasy. Recent bestsellers too. Otherwise you don't generally get a lot of action. It's rare to get more than a couple of bucks apiece, but hey, that's better than nothing.
