A little late, but!
I just remembered that I completely forgot:
I went to the mall yesterday and picked up The Looking Glass Wars and the first volume of 07-Ghost. (yes, yes, I'm already caught up online, but HARD COPIES. PERSONAL REFERENCE.) The Borders in our mall is closing down, apparently (hopefully they'll just replace it with another bookstore; I'd hate to have to go all the way to Books-A-Million and our Barnes&Nobles' selection is kind of iffy), so they were having a few sales.
They had ONE copy of 07-Ghost vol.1 left (which apparently means it's popularish with the usual folks that go to Borders (read: 12 year old girls). this won't end well.), in addition to selling the Gankutsuou manga which I wanted sobad ;A; They also had Lovers and Souls (already read, have on my computer, even, but yay hard copies, excuse the pun) and the first volume of the Curse of Darkness manga (when the hell did that get localized?). And a whole bunch of other things I wanted.
And I had $20.00. Just $20.
So I bought the thing I'd actually gone there for and picked up some fantasy novel with a pretty cover so my uncle wouldn't complain about me buying too many comics, etc. etc.
Then I bought an ice cream smoothie. The girl at the counter was cute.
The end!
