Left work early to buy books

[beelikej]

Work is a rollercoaster at the moment; yesterday I had managed to clear my desk, so this morning I had nothing to do. I figured I'd take advantage of the situation and asked the bossman if I could go home early. Of course then he remembered an assignment that had been lying around on his desk for a while, which wouldn't necessarily interfere with my plans, but right after that I received several mails from different clients and all of a sudden I was crazy busy. Pfff.

So I feared I wouldn't be able to go bookshopping as I had hoped (shops are closed by the time I normally get back into town). Fortunately I could get a lot done and I allowed myself to move one order to Monday, so I could stick to my plan of leaving an hour earlier. As a result I added two books to my to-read-list!.

Not only do I now have two new books to read, the book that I got as a gift because of Bookweek also serves as a free trainticket on Sunday (the National Railway is sponsor of Bookweek to promote reading on the train) - so guess what I'm doing this weekend:) The Hague, here I come!

What are your plans?

Updated my bookcommunity with review of
The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Night-Time - Mark Haddon

Heee glad you got to leave early so the book shopping wasn't thwarted! Let me know what you thought of Heldere Hemel :D.

Heh, I already said this in my other comment: I'm taking it with me on the bus tomorrow. (I finished Hofstadter today, yay!)
