*Crystalline* Has No Shame.
Update: LJ hasn't cashed in mah check yet, so we're still at Basic status. :\
Today I went to Borders to pick up three books I ordered the week before. One was the awesome book The Boss Of You, which is about entrepreneurship and STICKING IT TO THA MAN, ha-HA.
LOL.
Another was Solanin, a manga by Asano Inio.
Synopsis
"Meiko Inoue is a recent college grad working as an office lady in a job she hates. Her boyfriend Shigeo is permanently crashing at her apartment because his job as a freelance illustrator doesn't pay enough for rent. And her parents in the country keep sending her boxes of veggies that just rot in her fridge. Straddling the line between her years as a student and the rest of her life, Meiko struggles with the feeling that she's just not cut out to be a part of the real world."
...kinda goes with the book, huh. Read Solanin first, be depressed, then lift thyself up from despair, and read The Boss Of You. Rock! \__/
Finally, I bought...the final volume of yaoi series Winter Demon!
I've only ordered, hmmm, about two yaoi volumes from Borders in the past and neither retrieval really elicited any reactions from the salesclerks. But this dude actually stared at it in mid-shelf-removal and sort of guffaw-laughed.
I was like...fine, laugh, you fiend. You are a big man in a tiny shirt. And I am proud of my yaoi ways.
Yeah, until I saw the cover. After that, I couldn't begrudge him even an outright chortling.
>.<
Whatever! It's cool! I'm going to go read demon smexing now! HA! I win.
