After my classes ended today, I headed over to the Gulf Coast Town Center to the Borders bookstore to pick up Aretha Franklin's Christmas CD for my mom. Once I found the CD, I picked up a copy of 'Q' magazine, which had Angus Young on the cover, and made my way to the literature section to see what the cost was for a copy of A Clockwork Orange. Seeing the prices of the CD, magazine, and book, I wanted...
...a literature section such a delight to browse in! Alas, I had no money to spend, but they have been just as well, because I didn't have to choose just one or two books out of those hundreds! Ooh, Borders has Moleskine journals too, which are lovely, but expensive. And so many lovely cookbooks! There are the usual chairs for sitting and reading in, and Gloria Jeans is in there too! I look forward...
I've been waiting for this day for months! There are so many lovely lovely lit books, and books on writing, and poetry! An amazing poetry section! Ooh ooh I wish I had hundreds of dollars to spend there...CARD!!!1!!! Yes! You can get those at Deakin! Yippee! Ooh, and I've decided I'm going to cards for all the bookshops in Geelong--well, the ones that have them, because that will be very exciting
...be writing a letter of resignation right now, but instead I am Facebooking and LJing (obviously) and generally not doing anything that I should be doing, because I am a terrible, terrible person. Resignation comes about courtesy of the fact that I HAZ NEW JOB. guess where? ... I am such a traitor. I am, as of November 17th, a full-time Christmas casual at BORDERS. Oh, the hilariousness.
I get irrationally happy when people like Neil Gaiman mention Ann Arbor. (It makes sense; this is where the flagship Borders is - the one I'm trying not to buy from anymore for various reasons, real problems though I know it has. *concern*) I just. Irrationally pleased! - I love fall in Michigan. And things to eat that involve pumpkin (bread, muffins, pie, ice cream probably, soup possibly)...
...off next thursday- sunday to visit my family in Indy. so yeah. i think i have found a therapist that works with trans people. she seems nice. i just need to iron out insurance issues (might have to get new insurance because borders insurance does not cover gender identity therapy...) i'm taking the GRE this thursday. i did an overnight tonight (8:30-3:30) i am tired. hope everyone is well.
...conference at 10:20, which is suppose to last till 10:40, then i'm going HOME! woohoo! Not that today is bad, but I am looking forward to going home and enjoying myself. However, I DO have to work at 2:30, so I guess I'll enjoy my life until then. Tonight, I have to go and get some sources for my next speech. I'm going to go to borders and mack off the books because i'm too cheap to pay for them.
Woot woot! Tokio Hotel will be having a signing session at Virgin Megastore at the Block of Orange tomorrow!!!! Last night my friend Judy and I both got our wristbands which guarantee... As the dentist was having a hard time trying to pull it out, her tool slipped and stabbed the back of my throat. It really hurt but I healed fast so whatever! And yup I think that's about it!!!!
