You know what I love? I love gift cards, specifically ones to book stores. As such, I usually use 'em up within a few days, and they're left lying around my house with a few cents left on them collecting dust.

But not always.

So, I had about six old gift cards to my FAVORITE book store, ever (not counting my local comic book store, ilu guys!), and I went to check the balances on them all, and - over forty-five dollars. Considering the bookstore also sells used-but-in-good-condition books for ridiculously low prices, I got to buy a stack of comic books I've been wanting to read for MONTHS. I did that the day before yesterday, and I'm still not done with them, which should give you an idea how much I got.

Ain't random luck grand?

So I've been kind of slacking on my X-Men fandom lately, and I wanted to get back to my comic book roots. (Well, technically that was Runaways, but whatever). And, of course, I really needed one more thing to keep me distracted from my NaNo. Anyways, Guthries are awesome, and so I'm claiming them at XMen15.
