My moment of ‘Duh’ for the day.

So, I’m in the public library, returning a book my kid checked out, and on the way out the door I notice that Peter Higgins has written Truth and Fear, which is a sequel to his quite nice Wolfhound Century (which is kind of about magic, and kind of about the Russian Revolution).  So I say to myself I should remember to get that on Kindle when I get home! No, wait, I already spent all the discretionary funds that I have on already-earmarked products, and the next batch is already allocated*.  Better wait until the end of the month…

:pause:

It was not until I was driving home that the obvious thought in your heads entered mine.  The annoyed swearing would have been entertaining, I’m sure.  Especially when it occurred to me that I almost had to write about it.  Because I was dumb.

*Discretionary income is, of course, tightly budgeted, so that I will not run up the house credit card on gimcracks.  Well, the odd gimcrack.  I feel extremely transgressive when I put a twenty buck purchase on house money these days, which just shows that you can teach new habits to anybody.

  1. Why not sign up for Amazon Unlimited, or whatever its called? Then you can read whatever you want, whenever you want to.

    1. Waiting for that to shake out; plus, it does in fact cost money, and while the family isn’t hurting or anything we’re trying to set a good example for the kids.
