On autumn and Christmas

[gin_tonic]

So, today I've been to the international bookfair here in town. Finland was the guest country this year (<3) and I spotted some books that will make their way on my b-day wishlist. In the hall with the English-language publishers there was a sale, as there always is on bookfair sundays, and I managed to snag up 6 books for 2 euros each and 1 for 5 Euros. Super cheap! ... They go right on top of the stack of unread books. :P I joked with one of the Scottish publishing ladies that we'll just have to break an ankle or something and we'll get some time off to read all those awesome books.

Apart from that, I also went shopping this weekend. I returned with stuff for crocheting, a ton of flowers and - lo and behold - Christmas presents for my family. I think I never bought anything this early. Ever. But I figured why the hell not? I'll probably have to do some last-minute shopping anyway.

Sounds like you had a good time! :) I don't usually Christmas shop early but sometimes, if you see something, you just have to get it.

Good to hear from you, as always, hon. Glad the BF is keeping you busy though. ;)

Real busy! ;D

We're going to a wedding of a family friend of his on Saturday. I think it's the first wedding I'm invited to since... I was in kinderkarten, probably. I'm excited, though!
