If you live in Florida (or know someone who does) it's the thrid year they've done Tax Free week. It's to give people an across the board tax break and it's right before school for clothes, shoes, backpacks, things like that.

This year it includes BOOKS less than $50.

Graphic novels and trade paperbacks COUNT AS BOOKS.

Granted it's not a huge savings but still tax free!

Plus school supplies under $10. I'm not sure what counts as school supplies. I do know that some stores run sales in addition to the tax free thing.

I watched the fifth dvd onf Sports Night. Sam's gone.

Damn I love this show and I'm looking at the last disc and I wanna put it in and watch but if I do then it's over, because I can't just watch one episode and then wait on the rest. I'll put it in and the next thing I'll know it's the last episode and my heart will be stomped on. I'm not exactly sure how the series ends and...

Also I've added a bunch more tv shows to my netflix queue and I realized that if I don't eat lunch out so often. or get snacks from the vending machine (and , okay, spent less on comics) I could actually BUY some of these dvd sets.

Monday I start working on a budget for myself. I won't implement it until the beginning of August though.

Then there are my comic books. This week I bought:

Wonder Woman
The Outsiders
Robin
Birds of Prey
Justice League Elite
Gotham Knights

I got Death in the Family, I need to sit down and read it more slowly, although the constant exposition at the end drove me nuts.

And, I finished The Intutionist for the book club and really really really want to talk to someone about it but I know I have to wait until it's time for the discussion to start.

Also has anyone seen the premiere of Rescue Me?

I watched parts of it last night and I'm going to watch the show. I don't really watch The Shield or Nip/Tuck so the language kind of surprised me, I forget that FX gets away with a lot.
