Not that I needed any more books after ALA, but I got a pretty good haul of awesome, thanks in large part to people who are full of it (awesome, that is...).  And next weekend's the annual library booksale, and some time in Aug I'm supposed to take a trip up to King's (huuuuuuuuuge), so August is probably going to be pretty full too.  And then I think I'll have enough to last me about a century or so...
