Adventures in a Bookstore

While I didn't have a hang-over when I awoke, I was really tired and wanted to have a slow day.

I had to buy books for school, so Brian and I went to the University of Utah bookstore to get them. Ever semester, I make a spreadsheet comparing new and used books from the bookstore and various online retailers. That way, I'll know if I should pay the dollar more at the bookstore for a book because it's not worth paying for the shipping for a cheaper book from Amazon.

Brian became annoyed at me for the following reasons:

1. I constantly compared the prices of the bookstore and my online retailers. Brian just wanted me to buy all my books at the bookstore.
2. If I have to buy a used book, I want one that looks the least used. Therefore, I inspect the cover for marks, the pages for highlights, and make sure the books pages have not turned yellow with age. For one book I had to purchase, I went through 13 of them to find one I liked. Brian, who became my shopping cart, did not like my methodical (if anal) method of finding that perfect used book.
3. I started looking at other books from other classes that I was interested in. Brian told me I wasn't in those classes and we needed to go.
4. I saw an old friend, Melissa Gonzales, and started talking to her. Brian, who was already anxious to leave, was very nice during this time but was really ready to go.
5. The whole time, I was wearing a light-blue shirt with my collar up with big sunglasses (similar to this) and Brian hates those sunglasses.

To reward Brian for his generous time, I took him to B&D Burger, the place we went to on our first date.

Brian also dropped me off near Megan's house where I picked up my car. I was really embarrassed because the house I parked in front of was having a yard sale and I knew I was severely hindering business. The lady glared at me as I got into my car and drove away. Oops!
