I don’t have much to say on each of these separately, so a bulk entry seems appropriate:
Books: There was a book fair at work today, so I picked up Simply Yoga, Eats, Shoots and Leaves and The Lovely Bones. All three for under $35. Yay!
Video: I signed up for DVDFlix.ca on Tuesday night. Wednesday by 11am my first three DVD’s had shipped, and today (Thursday) they arrived in my mailbox. I’ve now got Kill Bill Vol.1, Gothika & Chicago to entertain me for the next little while. You really can’t beat it for $20/mo when everything on TV is reruns.
Music: Puretracks.com sucks. I got one of those free songs with my Big Mac Meal, so I went, I chose, I downloaded. The songs come in .wma format (fairly useless, since I primarily use winamp), and license to your machine, so they’re un-shareable (at least for someone who’s not a leet hax0r like me). Good thing it was free – I’d never pay a buck for useless music.
I read _The Lovely Bones_ last week. My mother handed it to me and said that i would like it. I did like it! Oddly captivating, despite the fact that for most of the way through i just kept thinking “this book is so weird..”
Weirdly, I’ve read all three of your new books. Good reading awaits!
