I went to a used bookshop once and the three books I bought had been sold to the shop by the clerk. He asked me out for coffee on the spot. (I'd have said yes but the guy I was currently seeing was with me in the shop at the time.)

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
There's a local used book place that I donate to - they use the profits to fund literacy programs. Periodically, I'll look at the available books when I drop off a bagful ... and I keep finding myself drawn to books that I've donated (or other copies of the same ones). Consistancy?

Aw, that seems very sweet to me.
We have a tradition in my family that when you buy someone a book as a present you are expected to read it before you give it to them. Sometimes I don't and my mom (they are usually for her for some reason) is so surprised when I say I'll need to borrow them when she's done.
That's a great dream, Zen! You probably remember it because it's just that good.
Our Xmas gift from the Sr Director this year is a 6-piece baking set. Nice.
That is a very tolerant cat ... my mother once had a cat that had to be bathed for a while (flea infestation ... ick), but she would just extend her legs, make it difficult to get her in the basin, and then look pitiful and make sad sounds when she was wet.
