Italian Husbands: They're tall, dark - and ready to marry!

I just got back from the mall. And it was fantastic. I got myself some cute earrings from Claire's (shut up), but that isn't the fantastic part. No. The fantastic part is that the library was having a book sale. I bought The Hobbit because our copy is really old and the cover is just taped on. I thought it was time for a newer copy. And I've never read Sense and Sensibility so I picked that up as well. I've read Dreamcatcher by Stephen King, but I don't own it, and you can't usually get hardback books for a dollar so I grabbed that as well.

Those aren't the best things though. Oh, no. They were selling trashy harlequin novels for a quarter each, so I bought 4 of them. The Sicilian's Bought Bride, The Sheikh's Captive Bride, Pregnant by the Greek Tycoon, and The Frenchman's Captive Wife. I'm sure they'll all be fantastic. I'm also sure I'm going to be mentally inserting John and Rodney into all of them. Because that's how I roll. I figure they'll be fun to read when I'm down in Mexico.

Still, those aren't the best part either. They're pretty awesome, yes, but the most wonderful thing is the choose your own adventure book I found. But it's not just any choose your own adventure. It's a Magnum P.I. one. Maui Mystery #1. Complete with Tom Sellek in little shorts on the cover. Now, can you think of anything more fantastic than that? Other than Spock, Messhiah!, of course.

And I got all of that for $5.50. I think any day when you can get 9 books for that little money is a good one.

Now I'm going to see if Ben Affleck made a fool of himself on Hardball.
