Buying myself presents
Nov. 12th, 2003 02:38 pmThanks to a nice pair of gift certificates, I placed a decent order with Amazon the other night. A couple of the items were gifts, so I won't mention them here. But I also treated myself to some stuff. I ordered:
Animal Man, Book 2, collecting the second third of Grant Morrison's amazing run on the title (this was back when he was still a visionary).
Y the Last Man: Cycles, the second book in a very nifty series that I got into too late to pick up individual issues for (which is okay, since I prefer trades). That's assuming that Brian Vaughn doesn't have any moments as stupid as the "we don't know who wrote the note" one in the otherwise wonderful Runaways.
The Work of Director Spike Jonze, a DVD collecting the music videos (and lots of extras) of one of the true masters of the form.
The Captain, by Kasey Chambers, an album whose title track is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.
and
Words You Don't Want to Hear During Your Annual Review, because I work in a Dilbert world, and I'm way behind on the collections.
So yeah, I'm definitely psyched for this package to arrive.
