Books and Yarn

So I have been on a complete book buying spree lately... I wanted to buy some new books...
I re
ad Vampire academy by Richelle Mead and it was fun, so I decided to buy the second one, Frostbite. Off to Barnes & Noble... with my list of 3 books, all by Mead... ya section, find Frostbite... look for Succubus Blues and Succubus on Top on fantasy/sci-fi section... nope... even though Mead's other book is there... hmm... fiction maybe? Well, only the second one. So I decided to wait and go to Borders. Is anyone else aware that Borders is a giant cluster-fuck? s I checked and checked, but no luck. Then Derrick has the great idea of searching on the computer, and finds it in the romance section... but only number one... so I buy it then head home and buy the second one and several more I wanted for a great price at alibris... they should be here in a weekish, and we'll see how good of condition they are in, and maybe I'll buy some more...


I w
as so excited to learn who I am buying goodies for in the Big Bag Swap I joined... Jen... so I headed up to The Craft Basket in walkertown to buy lots of yarn from Julie, the owner... and there was fondling of yarn and new roving... and lots of coveting of her new spinning wheel... I have a couple projects I am determined to finish, but then I plan to buy some of the new yummy roving and spin spin spin... I did walk out with yarn for my Bag, thread to tat a bookmark for another swap... and some roving... hehe...

Then
again to the used bookstore... I found oh, 6 or so books I am collecting... Laurell K Hamilton's Anita Blake Vampire Hunter Series and the Lemony Snicket books that are so cute, so I am collecting them... and a couple more... Interview With a Vampire for good measure hehe... and to round out the oddness of my purchase, a Dragonlance book hehe... well nobody can say I am not diverse eh?

W
aiting on Brisingr to come out soon... bought Eldest at Target... and decided that Pride and Prejudice is one of my favs, so must buy more Jane austen books... hmm but I decided I must be on a diet... I will buy no more books until at least next month... and no more yarn this month except for Julies Big Sale and the Fiber Fest in a couple weeks... swaps not included...
I joined
