I don't think I actually intend to buy half of the stuff that I get. Most of it never graces my wishlist. It just falls directly into my hands. Neither of the two things that I bought today were planned, but I've been thinking of both of them for a while.
While I was cutting through Borders today, I glanced at the new releases shelf, as always. There are a few interesting things in there, but I didn't dwell. Since I had just finished my run, I was sweaty and smelly. Definitely not people friendly. Continuing across the store, I noticed that Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell was still on special. I had glanced a couple times at it, read through the first 30 pages or so in the café. I guess the time has come.
Slightly earlier on in the day, I happened to be walking past Thievery Corporation's Outernational Sound, but can't find it for less than $30. I took a listen to The Mirror Conspiracy and ended up walking away with it. It should be a nice addition to the randomiser.
