Well, the book-buying restriction didn't last long. Longer than I expected, but not as long as I'd hoped to be able to hold out. Oops.
I swear I just went in to pick up a physical copy of Tom Limoncelli's Time Management for System Administrators, that's all. But see, there was a "new paperback" display in the front of the store, and a stumbled-upon table of "buy two, get one free" books, and it was all downhill from there. I ended up with:
* Time Management for System Administrators, Tom Limoncelli
* Ajax in Action, Dave Crane
* D.C. Noir, George Pelecanos
* The Geographer's Library, Jon Fasman
* Coyote Blue, Christopher Moore
* I'm a Stranger Here Myself: Notes on Returning to America After 20 Years Away, Bill Bryson
[Edit:]
* Close Range: Wyoming Stories, Annie Proulx. This is the one I couldn't remember, which is particularly sad because it's the one I'm currently reading. *facepalm*
At least I left with the book I came in for along with the other stuff, which doesn't always happen.
