(no subject)
I just discovered a new love today! I realize my money is going to be leaving me soon unless someone else shares this love and can lend me their books, even if the library had them we have a strained relationship and I don't know if she would welcome me back to her kind bosom.
But, back to the point.
After ascending in KOL, I hung out in Valhalla for a bit and had the adventure where Death, in three forms (one being the Discworld Death YOU KNOW THIS ONE) challenges you to some games and talks about the infinite. Well, I was curious about the other two forms, so I looked it up on the KOL wiki. One was from some movie, which didn't especially grab my fancy, but the other was the Death from Neil Gaiman's The Sandman. This made me look into it a bit, but I wasn't about to go lay down $20 to get the first (of 11 volumes). Last night, I wiki-surfed upon a page that compiled every archetypal superhero power and I kinda looked around there and read the wiki page on Deadpool (if anyone has any issues of that I'd love to read them), and looking at the gn compilations of the new series that has him, (conjoined with the awesome 30% borders coupon i had) I thought I might as well see if I could pick up the first volume of Sandman.
Well, I just finished reading it and it is really quite awesome. It just saddens me that there goes a big chunk of money if my will is weak (or maybe I was just saving it for something big like this, i dunno) However, of interest to Lucy, on the back page where it has all the books the lie outside the 11 volume main story, it listed one that was illustrated by Yoshitaka Amano! Now I defnitely have to get a copy and hopefully he'll sign it at Amanocon!
But yeah, Boo Spending all of my money! Hooray Red Stripe! It's Beer! Hooray Beer!
