Posh chronometers at real tiny prices!

...yeah.  I should probably not get into the habit of using spam lines as my titles.  That can only end in tears.

So, yes!  Finally got my copy of "The Year of Intelligent Tigers" and am looking forward to lazing around this evening reading it.  If anyone out there hasn't heard of WhoNA.com, I highly recommend that you look 'em up!  Quick, polite service - shipping within hours and arrival in Canada after only seven business days - and fantastic prices.  Gold stars all around!

Okay, I'm done advertising.

Lunch with work-people was nice - we went to a diner I've been meaning to try out and discussed how hard it is to get a job in our field.  The answer is, apparently, "pretty hard", unless you want to work as a forecaster/researcher for the federal government.  Which is my backup plan (after academia), anyway, so yay!  I think I'm gonna contine with my rabid connection-making strategy, though, just to get my foot in the door.  It makes me feel a bit mercenary: "Hello, there!  Pleased to meet you!  How can you help me?"  But, y'know.  A necessary evil.

Drat, here is the disadvantage of not living in North America....

As far as I know, they'll deliver internationally with extremely reasonable shipping.

...but, yes, I was way too excited about finding that site.

Ooh YAY! Now I will probably spend a LOT of money.... Yay again!

I'd just spent quite a long time trolling the bookstores (used and new) around here for any sign whatsoever of Doctor Who books, with no luck. Needless to say, I was really, really excited about this site. :D

What sorts of things are you thinking of buying, if you don't mind my asking? I love the Dalek soap dispenser, but it'd probably confuse my roommates to death. Heehee.
