Beautiful day, not so beautiful karma

I'm, right now, not rolling in a zone of physical pain. That means I'm feeling pretty good until I jinx it.

And thus, with such a nice, sunny Friday, I decided to take a walk downtown after class. I normally don't go outside, so I needed the fresh air. And it was a cute afternoon all and all.

Except for the part in which I stumble to these kiosks, and I discover I decided to walk around just in the middle of the book fair. I totally didn't know about it. To make it worse, the first stand was of a geek library (you know, with SF-fiction novels, comics, graphic novels, manga, anime DVDs... the whole fucking lot).

And how much money did I carry around? Why, 9€! Because I burned my month money in the preciousssssss Okami. I would've headwalled if I could.

Oh, how cute, the stand had a copy of Good Omens in Spanish. I spent so many time looking for you, bitch, and you show up when I don't need you! Screw you and the Alanis irony, I have one in English now, and it was cheaper than you and without literal translations of jokes anyway.

In the end, I survived to the fair without buying anything. It hurt a lot.

Therefore, I stopped by my comic library, which wasn't far away, and I bought one manga (which is what I could afford). I grabbed Mushishi #1

Then I walked a bit more and went back home. It was cool.
