Valentine's Day
Aka Commercialised Florists-ripping-you-off Day
Happy Lupercalia, everyone! <3
Went out with my mother today. XD I applied for a job at Borders - they should call back by tomorrow - and we bought some books. Then we went to this little coffee place just outside Borders called The Coffee Club. She had a chicken sandwich, I had a delicious chocolate muffin (warmed, so the chocolate chips had melted through the soft chocolate cake bit) and this tiny dessert thing that was a tiny glass containing mango puree and white chocolate and blackcurrent compote topped with sweet cream and a raspberry, and we both had hot chocolate.
I bought Neil Gaiman's The Sandman: A Game Of You, Deborah Harkness's A Discovery of Witches and Stephen Mitchell's translation of the Epic of Gilgamesh, titled Gilgamesh, creatively enough. She bought (or rather I bought it for her, with my gift cards) Curse of the Pharaohs by Zahi Hawass. Time to add all those to the reading list. :D
