books! lots of books!

Cog Sci discussion was canceled today. = (

So I went to Borders instead. = )

I ♥ Seed Magazine. I have also achieved buying the Second Doctor serials "The Mind Robber" and "The Invasion", and a book on linguistics called "Word Play: What Happens When People Talk". I did have a book on Internet communication, but I already knew 90 percent of the material, and the ten percent I didn't wasn't interesting enough to payout the $30 asking price. And the IPA Handbook, but I'm waiting to see what I need for my phonetics class first.

Which I just did. Holy Mother of God! My linguistics books alone cost nearly $100! On Amazon! I don't know how much my other books are going to cost, because I forgot which section I'm in for the history of theatre, and my reader isn't priced but it's going to be around $30. *sulks*
