Another Random Stuff Post
Jan. 27th, 2010 12:18 am I still haven't managed to find the textbook for one of my courses. I'm about to the point where I'm ready to just reserve the thing online so they'll tell me when the shipment gets in. It's just that one of the bookstores said it would be in "any day now" and that was a week ago - a week after they said it was ordered.
In related news, I am still frustrated by my inability to find the later two books in the Larklight trilogy. One of the college bookstores here had the first one, but that's because they order random assortments of books to arrange into nice displays and there is no printing of Larklight, to my knowledge, that does not have a red cover (which appears to have been the theme for this display). However, the nice man upstairs running the counter for General Books offered to order them for me, so I might take them up on that offer at some point if I don't just bite the bullet and try to find them online.
Also, I have just seen a wonderful comment on
fanficrants about a continuity snarl in Marvel - Captain America is alive again in most of the main continuity, but the series where he gets resurrected isn't quite finished. Therefore, it is amusingly remarked that he is suffering "a slight case of Schroedingeritis" .
