My title says it all, but whatever.    For Christmas, my best friend's elder daughter gave me a $20 gift card to B & N.  Yeah, she doesn't know me well, does she?  LOL!

Yesterday I decided to go spend it.  I took my bud Mark with me, since he said he wanted to go.  I think he's now learned his lesson.    We got to Clackamas & the place was busy, but not too bad.  Because yesterday was a holiday, the mall itself was closed.  We went into B & N and...well...I took a long time.  I admit it.  he-he.  Like that's a surprise.

I was enjoying myself.  All of the books I would have wanted I'd already read, so I decided to look for new-to-me authors.  I went all through romance and had picked out a couple, but nothing was really crying out my name.  I decided to over to fantasy, since a lot of the romance/paranormal authors are put there instead.  I was looking through the S's and came across author Jeanne Stein.  She's written a series about a bounty hunter, turned vampire.  The books are written in first person, but done very well.  Ms. Stein has written a series that is funny, scary, bizarre, cool and just plain interesting to read.  There were some moments where I was just giggling my butt off.    I totally recommend her stuff. 

Had a pretty boring New Year's Eve.  Stayed up late, but was watching movies.  Didn't realize it was midnight until our crazy drunk neighbor came outside banging a pot & screaming "Happy New Years!" at the top of his lungs.    Idiot. 

I had physical therapy today.  Wasn't too bad.  I basically got a nice hand massage and she fixed my new brace.  One more PT session to go & we'll see what happens.  I cannot WAIT for this stupid thing to be done & over with.
