Today I went into work on my day off just so I could shop at the library book sale. As an employee I get the privilege of shopping a day before the screaming masses descend upon the bargains. It was kind of annoying because since I was in my “street clothes” people kept coming up to me and saying, “I’m sorry, the sale doesn’t start until tomorrow.”
But I did get 16 books and 4 videos for $16.25!!! Not that I need to add to the massive amount of books I have to pack, but I simply could not pass up a library sale.
I am really pumped about “365 penguins” and the “Scary Stories” books. I used to read the scary stories books and absolutely terrify myself. Hopefully, since it is now seventeen years later, I can read them without having to sleep with the lights on.
But the best, best part was that I found four Babysitter’s Club videos!!!! I used to check those out of the library in Scranton when I was little. I think we checked out at least one every time we went to the library. Yippee!!!
It has been a very good day! And my mom is visiting this weekend and will get here later tonight!

P.S. Here are some cute pictures of my cats, just cuz I can.
1. I really want that Penguin book.
2. Libba Bray is crazy amazing and I am horrified that I have yet only read A Great and Terrible Beauty. I think I will have to blog about her anyway that way I can take a pic of the page in my book she autographed because it is one of the best autographed pages ever.
3. I was obsessed with the Clue books when I was younger, and when I’m staying at my parent’s house I still read a mystery or two out of one of em before I go to bed.
4. you are awesome.
5. your cats are awesome.
Wow! 16 books and 4 videos for $16.25? I’m so jealous! I used to read Clue books when I was younger too. Also I read all of the Anne of Green Gable books, although I think I got less interested as they went on. And the BSC tapes! My sisters and I have all of those on tape somewhere. They were (and still are, of course) awesome!
Clue books and You Be the Jury books are my secret weakness. I love the fact that even though I have read them over and over again, I still can’t solve the mysteries!
