Some French hardcover editions of Star Wars comicbooks.


Alex, Alex! You're walking away from history! History! Did Chris Columbus say he wanted to stay home? No! What if the Wright Brothers thought that only birds should fly? And did Galoka think that the Yulus were too ugly to save? -- Centauri to Alex Rogan; "The Last Starfighter" (1984)

I ordered Breath of the Wild for my Switch. It's on sale, and it turns out that while it was on this rare sale (Nintendo titles pretty much never go on sale), my dog decided to chew up my thumb drive that contained my Wii U copy/save data (yet she still hasn't eaten her breakfast. >.<).

I bought a couple of games for my Wii U. I need something new to take my mind off things.


At first I rejected the zero, but that was because I simply didn't understand it. Now I do.

Yes it does that. :D

Bought a couple more books - Deja Dead, Kathy Reichs; Heaven's Prisoners, James Lee Burke; Rogue Moon, Algis Budrys. The last I'd read before and was looking for it in Booth's Bookshop Hay-on-Wye when I was last in there and not finding it (and was where I found it before - and in case you're wondering why I don't still have it, I have tended to dispose of secondhand books I don't want to keep after reading them, but sometimes change my mind later, as in this case).

Another such one was The Crystal World by J.G. Ballard, now also reacquired.

I bought a new scarf! Although I already have quite a few scarves. Scarves are mighty pleasant so I'm glad I found this gray one with little stars on it. :squee:

Today at the convention I got:

A Litwick plushie

A plushie Poké Ball on a chain

A "Twilight Sparkle Is Best Pony" badge

 

It's a shame I didn't see a Duskull or Dusknoir plushie anywhere... If I did, I would have almost certainly made it mine. Litwick is still adorable though, so it works.

The most recent thing I bought was a plush of Starlight Glimmer. It was a monthly purchase on Patreon and myself and others had to make a payment for six months. I made the final purchase this month and I just received my plush. :)

Thank you. It wasn't easy, but the waiting was definitely worth it. I remember seeing pictures and some random videos of that specific Starlight plush. I always wanted to have a plush like that and then I saw the opportunity present itself. I know I'll be bringing Starlight with me to some conventions next year. :D
