do you want to sit outside, or do you think it's too windy?

so we did such a good job at work that we got a smallish cash reward. $100. not your bulls-and-bears bonus, but nice enough. i took mine over to the b&n today and purchased the first four septimus heap books in paperback. syren is not yet out paper, and they didn't have the others in hardcover, and i really just wanted the paper anyway, and i very much want them to all be the same format. so, i bought the first four. i looked for this addiction but alas the alkaline trio slot was empty. they did have a little card with the band's name on it, which is something i guess. the clerk offered to special order it for me and have it shipped to the store so that i could come and pick it up there and i was about to be all like, "hey, welcome to 1988." but instead said, "i can order it online myself, thanks." sheesh. so now i have $65 left.
