To do Today
1: Order Textbooks. (I get $175 total in Amazon giftcards to go toward textbooks, and even buying them used it doesn't cover it. Not even close. I've still got a whole book hanging off the end. ::sigh::)
2: Laundry.
3: Go see Rain, the Beatles tribute concert, to which Sarah may or may not join me.
4: ... Crap, there was a fourth, but I can't recall it. Boo.
Anyway. I've found a 7th edition of the same book listed for my biology class for half the price of the 8th edition which is listed for the class. I'm sorely tempted to just buy that one and have done with it. It'll save me over $50, and I've never met a textbook yet where the immediately previous edition was a hindrance. (The only time I've had problems with an out-of-date textbook was when I had the 2nd edition and the class was using 7th. Or something crazy like that.)
And on the offchance that they are demonstrably different, there's a high probability of there being a copy of the proper bio text on reserve at the library. I'll compare the two, and possibly have to get the problems from the reserve copy. But whatever. I've dealt with worse, especially since the library's 3 minutes from my dorm, and it'll save me like $65.
Sorted.
