joining the ravening hordes

My Lovely Wife has expressed a burning desire to go shopping for books this evening at 12:01 AM.

For the life of me, I have no idea why.

[Girds loins for battle.]

Hmmm… where did I put that mace?…

    Fight the powers of darkness! Stay home. Wait until the damn thing comes out in paperback.

    I hate to disagree with Lefty but - c’mon, she just fed you ice cream cake while you drove? What’s a little book shopping at 12:01am in comparison to that act of love??

    Bren bought her copy by 12:02 — at the grocery store. 40% off. She hadn’t waited for very long and there were only a few people ahead of her. Afterwards she drove by the local bookstore and saw a few hundred people in line.

    She got some groceries too.

    [cough] I hear you can download such things for free. Not that I would know anything about that or would even consider such a thing.

    Hey, at least you know you could take 75% of the fellow purchasers in a fist fight. Okay, fine. Fifty percent.
