Besides Amazon, where does one go these days to buy used college textbooks?
University bookstores maybe? Nearly all used booksellers these days will list their catalogs on Amazon, though.
Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

This getting a migraine anytime it rains or snows is getting old, especially when ltc is on vacation.
Oh yeah, I'm known to my friends as The Human Barometer.

Our wings are not tired.
Sophia! I got your card back although I am pretty sure the address is good. It was marked 'no mail receptacle'.
Good news, sj, but still an ouchy place to deal with.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Weird, Laura? I am getting other mail and there are not one but two mail receptacles! I can email you my work address, though!
Petunia is home. She hates the cone! She also has thumbs,

Oh, poor Petunia and the tiny cone of shame. Yes, send me that address. I have no clue why they had the issue. It was the 28th that they stickered it as undeliverable.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Yay, sj's mom!
Tonight I'm having a couple of people over for board games. We'll drink cranberry Prosecco and watch some ball or other drop at midnight. Then we'll all go home and sleep. I've stopped minding getting older and started appreciating that I don't have to pretend to like going out in the cold dark unless there's minimal light pollution and interesting astronomical phenomena at hand.

Laura- I am not ignoring you. For some reason on the iPad, I click on your profile addy and it is just blank. So I might need to wait until I am on a computer.
Yay mom of sj.
Petunia has decided the cone is great for rolling up area rugs.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I did, in fact, leave work early and I thought that would be a good opportunity to get some groceries but I forgot that I hadn't eaten lunch and I may have gone a little overboard. Oops. At least I won't start the new year with no food!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I ended up with no plans at all tonight, which is just fine by me! I did go out earlier to play trombone in support of some anti-war demonstration in the middle of all the NYE festivities. I would have rather listened to the amazing band playing nearby, though!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I ended up with no plans at all tonight, which is just fine by me!
Our plans are low key, and I considered it a triumph that I got Matilda off the couch, and dressed and outside even once.
But I made a fancy Mac & Cheese to give away, and JZ made the delicious lemon cookies, and we have a bottle of champagne, and we'll do a brie en croute tonight and watch something.
We've been watching What We Do In The Shadows and it's fun to hear Matilda cackle with glee.
Might try to watch a marathon of His Dark Materials.
