Yesterday was fun. I went to visit someone I know only from blogging, even though we live less than 25 miles apart. Our meeting point was less than six miles from one of my favorite used book stores. Hand it back Book Smyth in Middleton MA. Sadly they don't appear to have a web site, or a listing in Biblio Sad that because they have a nice little shop. Pretty heavy on the fiction, science fiction and fantasy get their own massive row of shelves. Romance and Horror get another with classic literature against the wall. They have a a small, but amazing biography and autobiography section. So if your traveling up 114 any time soon, look for them.
Got a bag full of books, so I am going to be reading for the rest of the month.

Mythology - by Edith Hamilton

Returned Hollywood Cartoons to the library, I have placed the book on my amazon wish list, and on my palm list of books I would like to own. So if you happen to have a copy your not planning on keeping???
Feeling a bit under the weather today. Joints are not so bad, but the atmospheric pressure has got me feeling like I have poison ivy or something. Building book cases and organizing books will have to wait for another day.
