Hey there, all...

Happy St. Mark's Day! There's a Pagan Book of Days that we just got in, and it looks cool enough to buy. I think I'm going to have to buy some books from my stack this go-round.

What was the last TV show you watched?
The Simpsons, though I stuck around for half of King of the Hill, too. Man, I've missed The Simpsons...oh, what a wondrous thing having cable is. :)

What was the last thing you complained about and what was the problem?
You know, as much as I hate to complain, it's one of those things I do far more often than is necessary. :P Last time I complained, it was about my relationships with a few people, but then, I'm *always* complaining about that. I never feel comfortable with most folks.

Who was the last person you complimented and what did you say?
And here's something I'd like to do more of. I told [livejournal.com profile] duncanroo he was a nice guy, and he is. The problem with giving compliments is no one seems to take them well, so there's always this...awkwardness to the entire process that makes it more trouble than it's worth. It's like, "You're cool, OK? Now stop disagreeing with me before I kill you."

What was the last thing you threw away?
A big bag of styrofoam packing peanuts. They're like, a plague on the Bookshop. I swear, worse than black people in KFC.

What was the last website (besides this one) that you visited?
This one, this one, and this one. All work-related, I assure you. If you're ever looking for a rare or out-of-print book for cheap, check them out. They've proven invaluable. :)
