Books, Thrift Stores and other Life Randomness

Did I ever tell you that I love books? It is actually more like an obsession than love. Almost to the point I think I may need rehabilitation in the future. There is something about the written word that makes my day; letting the imagination run wild. I'm still debating into buying an eReader. I love to read, but I also love holding the book, turning the pages (I know....geek!) So, I'm not sure of making the move yet. Although it would allow me to have more books without taking over our entire apartment.

That's how I got into thrifts stores and flea markets. You can find good books very cheap and in good condition. Somebody's trash is another's treasure, they say. During my travels looking for more books, I found this:

Yeap, that is an authentic Dooney & Burke, ( I checked all the marks, it is legit). The price?...$3...No typo, only $3, as in Three!  I'm not into brand handbags, but when I saw it and knew I had to grab it. When I got the cashier, I shrunk a little. waiting for her to tell me that the price was a mistake or something. I walked out of the nice store with a Dooney & Burke wrist bag, and two books: Eat, Pray, Love and 1984; all for $3.60. Jackpot!In other news, New site is up! Still working on the Art area and the mobile version but I'm pretty excited about it. I did it using ShowIt, a great tool for photographers and artists in general out there! Check them out!
