| one week left |
school starts a week from tomorrow. i'm all itchy in my skin because i just looked up my booklists, and i could be happier about the money i need to shell out. Tax alone is going to cost $190. Isn't that crazy? Comparative law is being taught by a professor whose specialty is Asian Law, but they hadn't altered the course description from saying that the course compares the U.S. with the systems of France and Germany. I don't think I'm any less interested, but still feel slightly irked.
on top of that, this is one of those courses where we read the professor's book, which is available through the bookstore for $135; Amazon for $145; and half? the used books? $227. nice. I guess I'll be schlepping to the bookstore soon. Maybe even today.
I was going to get my hair cut today, but the local place that has been recommended to me is closed on Mondays. I will call tomorrow and see when I can get an appointment for.
The girls' old babysitter is coming over today to hang out with them for a few hours. I am not sure what I'll do during that time. I thought I'd be getting my haircut, but now that's nixed. Then I thought I'd go buy my books .... perhaps that is what I'll do. Get it over with. I don't know why. I should buy them on the first day of school. piece meal, in loads I can carry.
I think if I could look through used options, though, and see if there are any without highlighting, I could consider a tainted book. I have a better chance of THAT if I go today. |
