I finally found a thrift copy of Pratchett's The Colour of Magic. I would start reading it but I watched the Sky adaptation a few weeks ago.

Went to the quarterly Friends of the Library sale for Orange County here. Came away with a new Dragonlance book (doesn't happen often), a new Dragonlance Compendium (War of Souls), a couple new Forgotten Realms compendiums (Ed Greenwood & another one), some new additions to the Forgotten Realms paperback set, a hardcover replacement for Passage of Dawn (first 4 Drizzt novels now in Hardcover), and some assorted other novels including a Warhammer compendium, another Kamigawa cycle Magic book, and some other things.

We took the opportunity to finally construct the bridge between our bookshelves, since we were running out of space, and it worked out well with the TV stand we swapped out:

They make OK stuff, to me the issue is in the assemblage. It's not quite cheap enough for me to want to spend six hours putting shit together.

I picked up Unusually Stupid Americans: a Compendium of All-American Stupidity while doing my usual Monday night game-shopping run at my fave used-media establishment. 'Cuz I like nothing more than to read about and laugh/cry at the idiocy of others.

Nabbed a hardcover copy of Myst: Book of Ti'ana complete with poster. I'm going to get the poster framed and put up next to my Myst poster, since Myst was my first PC experience and one of my major influences for my career.

Ducked into Wempster's part of town in Gainesville for the bi-annual Friends of the Library sale. Think I went a little overboard...

$200 price tag. Goes to a good cause, so no complaints. I didn't count how many books there were, but there's 80+ Forgotten Realms books there I didnt' have.

Passed up the "Even More Scary Stories" book that's a complimentary set to the Scary Stories books you picked up. Thought about picking it up and sending it to you to go with the others, since I already own it, but they were closing at that point.
