Every day I read the book

My day bag is full of new media. Not only did the Nine Inch Elvis CD arrive in the post today, but I stopped by Lee's to pick up (a) a deep discount copy of the illustrated script of MirrorMask (b) the trade paperback of 'Those Left Behind' (c) the conclusion of Universal Machine (d) issue #0 of the Battlestar Galactica comic (e) Rosario Dawson's new comic, OCT, and I went by Dave's house to rummage through CZR's comic collection and picked up 60 (not, in fact 20 like I thought) back issues of HellBlazer so now I can find out what everybody's talking about (b) another copy of Kill Your Boyfriend which I may or may not still have a first copy of, and (c) a bunch of BPRD comics which were a complete surprize because they were unlisted. (: I have to go back to Lee's sometime because I saw the new Strangers in Paradise and apparently Francine actually got married to somebody.
This, combined with my regular courseload, should fry my brains within two months.

The check's in the mail

Update to myself:
Got a place to stay in Portland. May be able to use max or something to get to Jantzen Beach. Will ask hotel clerk.
