jackI am weak.
I went to geek pizza (which was fun, but odd because loud people (affectionately) weren't there, so there were lulls in conversation for the first time in my memory for months :) wonderfully filled in by cheese, maths jokes, polish jokes, and lots of linguistics).
Why do Poles get *all* the jokes? It's a nice country. Does it just hit the right size/relevence between "everyone in england forgets its name" and "too big to make fun of"? But they have (a) the Cauchy jokes (b) the stupid jokes and (c) the really long surname jokes!
Anyway, weak. We didn't do a post-pizza, so I went to borders to browse. And bought half a dozen books, some hardback. I should have gone to amazon (and will, for a couple I left behind) but they were just all ones I wanted, so I treated myself.
OTOH when I think of it as the whizzy car I haven't got round to buying yet, it's a modest outlay. It all balances out.
