Ia! Ia Cthulhu F'taghn!

This being the week of my birthday, I decided it was time to go to Barnes & Noble in order to purchase some books. I ended up getting the first volume of Neal Stephenson's Baroque Cycle, Quicksilver and H.P. Lovecraft's Beyond the Mountains of Madness. While there, I ran into my favorite bookseller. During conversation, she intimated that she appreciated Aaron and my patronage, and I have to say that she's a hell of a lot more fun than many of the other people who work there. Perhaps this is laying it on a bit thick, but I think I can say without reservation that if everybody who worked in bookstores were even half as clever, witty, and fun as she is, the world would be a much happier place.
