Score!!Achieved my latest shopping obsession, a Barbaro Beanie Baby by Ty. A portion of the profits from this collectible will go to Barbaro Fund University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine.
In other shopping news, Louise and I went to a jewelry show and spent an entire day buying jewelry and accessories. A low point was when I bought two scarf headbands for $5 only to find another booth selling them 3 for $5. Grrrr!
Finished the audio of Monstrous Regiment by Terry Prachett. Wow! That makes the tally Books 2 and Shoes 0 for 2007! I may be in recovery! That's almost four weeks without a new pair of shoes! Now to stop the clothes buying...
Regiment was good, but not the best I've heard of his. I think Going Postal was even better, and I love the Tiffany Aching series. One of the most memorable lines of this book was when they were eating a 'hearty' stew. It also was 'lung-y' and 'liver-y'. Somehow this is quite hysterical when read with an English accent. Trust me.
Funnier than that State of the Union Address thingy I'm avoiding right now. That's just sad.
