must... curb.... desires...
I've gotten two of the Primeval novels from the public library. Almost done with the second one. Horray!
BUT.
There are two more. One of them is "on order" and the other is either "checked out" or "missing." Which means I have to wait. I don't know yet if there is a way I can be put on the waiting list, since I'm doing this through Interlibrary Loan at school. I requested them last time and my requests were canceled, so I'm gonna talk to Belinda tomorrow to see if I could just put a hold on them.
The other option is, of course, I could buy them. WHICH I REALLY WANT TO DO!!! Except on amazon.com, with the cheapest copies, the total for the two books comes to $20. Which is too much for me to be spending right now. Maybe if I could get them directly from B&N, I wouldn't feel so guilty about shipping charges. But I do. And anyway, it's money I shouldn't be spending, right? Right.
Soooooo.... now I just have to convince myself that I don't need these books. That I can somehow wait/beg&plead the library for these books.
Harumph. Why can't I be wealthy?
