I checked and they are ! There's a used bookst ore I want to check out.
Looks like Malaprop's now offers delivery down town of any book in stock or orders that are in.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Thanks, everyone. Tomorrow is a relatively light day for me -- just office hours in the morning, and some grading to finish up, and prepping classes for Thursday, but no teaching -- so I'll be able to rest somewhat, and then I think I'll be OK for teaching on Thursday.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Good, Hil. I hope it goes that way for you.
Malaprop's used to have a used book section, too. Man, I miss Asheville. Just go down the hill if you have time, and pat the rock wall of the civic center for me, would you? Have you checked out All Souls Crescent? If you do, smile at the Eastern Music Store for me, if it's still there, and the New Morning Gallery.

I remember Malaprops! It's been years since I've been to Ashville. I'm so glad it's still open.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Malaprops is not just open, but bustling and thriving and all the things you want a great bookstore to be. Always a pleasure to drop in there and lose half a day.

This was my first trip and it was a spontaneous post therapy decompression thing but I'm going back. I wish it were closer because they have Trader Joe's...well I could get non perishable stuff. I think it's almost an hour to certain parts. With the weather so nice I may go next week and explore more.
Yesterday I missed a fraud text alert about someone using my card at Target. Since I didn't I texted No. In the light if day I realized I don't have a card ending on those numbers so that was a relief but I also had to call and notify someone text a less for a card were going to the wrong number.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I'm having a good day. It's 70 here and the sun in shining. Mom is here, and she stayed with ltc while I went to get a coffee and bring back lunch for us. She found my fitbit while I was gone, and now I'm setting it up while she takes ltc for a walk. I love my baby girl, but I really needed a little break for her. Parenting an extrovert when you're an introvert is tricky sometimes.

Thanks, Liese. I set up the Fitbit and connected it to my weight watchers account which made me happier than it should.
