You know what my cats and I have in common? We all like to lie around surrounded
by a big nest of books. Oh, and we all have Attitude and would like to get more
sleep also.
Work has now taken to giving us bonuses in the form of a
special little Amex card with the bonus amount on it. This means it must be spent
instead of, say, being put into savings or used to pay off a balance on the real
credit card. Then they gave my groups bonuses for something we'd already gotten
bonuses for, but mandated by a different level. Whatever. I suppose I could defeat
their fell purposes by using it for, say, groceries, but instead I caved and
headed for the local used book store.
Cue Kaddish here, since it
seems to have closed. So I spent it at the other local used bookstore, which is
considerably less costeffective because actually only about half their stock is
used and even those are mot sort of late model and thus more expensive than a haul
from the other place used to be. Sigh.
