Wallet workout

[seandc]

Well, the week is over, made it through. I feel like I didn't get much really done today *looks at time - or yesterday, rather* thanks to morning teas, retrying things from other approaches, and taking a gander at the big awards thing outside our doors - people, shiny balloons, the minister, a band in bright outfits, and they even got the red carpet treatment!

But one thing I did get accomplished was making my wallet a bit lighter. Voyager s5 joins B5 s5 which I bought earlier in the week (finally they get it out...), and a little trip to the comic shop has netted a nice little supply of comics and trade paperbacks (inclusing a new Exiles trade I'd ordered recently, yay!) to go with the ones I got cheap on Tuesday. I think my weekend is sorted out! :D


Well, so many other people were doing it, you think I could resist?
