mission accomplished, mostly

nollybiked to the thrift store, no problem. Stopped at the bike store on the way since my mirror broke last night. Expensive to replace, but worth it, IMO. I use one that clips to the earpiece of my glasses. I like being able to see behind me.
It's Baras, not Goodwill, for the record
They had the bacon rack, just like I remembered. They also had a lot more quality SF than usual, so Darkstar's getting some new books. A couple for me, too. It's good that we do a Palm version of the library catalog -- I was able to check what we have and what format, so I wasn't buying any duplicates. I ended up with more than I could easily carry on the bike (no rack, and I wasn't carrying my big backpack), so I left a box of stuff there and headed home to get the truck. Stopped at Michael's on the way home and looked over the "learn to knit" books, but didn't see any I liked better than the online instructions I've found.
Drove back, browsed a bit more, instructed one of the store folks in the use of a Furby, bought my stuff ($17.12 for 12 books, a bacon rack and a small stuffed animal), and headed home. Now it's time for a shower.
