I obtained the complete Sandman Library. Oh and I got my MA.
And your priorities straight.
I got everything straight.
I’m getting a new computer at work! And I bought my first digital picture frame.

sorry, had to be done.
At a yard sale (yes I am probably one of the few guys who goes to those of his own free will) I picked up an old book. I was published in the middle of the US Civil War, just around the time Grant took over the Northern Army. It’s fascinating because it talks mainly about the Revolutionary war from a mid 1800s perspective as well as the Civil War while they are still in its midst. I am considering donating it to my College’s history department.
Unless of course there are copyright issues 
Well, you probably know how I feel about that subject. But no, copyright issues aren’t a problem for nineteenth century works (Unless you live in Europe. But even there, this would be good.)
I don’t know, that sounds like a week long project—or longer. It’s a pretty big book, so scanning every single page might take a while.
Which is why I brought it up.^^
Should you really donate it, won’t the librarian do it?
Not usually. They tend to get proprietary about ‘their’ books.
Back to cooooool things 
I gave my first ever conference talk and didn’t die of fear!
congratulations!!! I almost missed mine since I got hopelessly lost and ended up on the other side of town
LOL - so not only were you nervous about the talk you were also running around like a headless chicken trying to find where it is! Nice to be calm
Major buzz afterwards tho right!?
Sweet! One down, many to go, right?
On what topic, if I may ask?
And cool stuff with me? Well what’s lately? 
I got a new laptop.
I got new books! tee hee.
I got a new TV.
Wow did you get a new job or a big raise?
I purchased a new upconvert DVD player, Philips DVP-5990. What I love most about it is the USB port. I can connect my 250GB USB drive to it and play DivX files right on my HDTV. Frakkin Awesome!! It also plays DivX right off burned DVDs. Now I can watch all the Family Guys I Tivo’d and then burned to DVD. Suh-weet.
