Some of you may have noticed that there was not a Members email last week. We admit this with embarrassment. However, we do have a good reason. Responsibly heading to the Agriplex, we received our booster mid-week. And, man, we were FLOORED with side effects. Fortunately the hideous winter was afoot and not everyone made it out for shopping–why would you?–but we spent that time recovering in bed like children and attempting to seem coherent. But, damn, it was a doozy. So, although we did have books ready to go we couldn’t get an email together that was up to the classy standards we’re all used to here at B&D. So, again, apologies.
To make up for it we continued cataloguing into this week and instead of sending all of those beautiful books to the regular unwashed sections of the B&D website we just snuck in the NEW stuff into Members and, friends, there is some stellar material here. It’s basically a frozen crypt on Richmond now so this gives us an opportunity to dig into our uncatalogued backstock and be our best, choosy selves. So we’re processing up a storm. Jason is trying to hoard all of the paranormal material for himself. And Vanessa, to spite him, discovered a scarce Scottish cryptozoological book, which made Jason very jealous. And she ALSO discovered an early, important work by ethnobotanist Terence McKenna, one of teenage Jason’s favourite personalities. So it’s basically war now. He’s gunna have to find a book that makes her jealous now. Or solve some important CRIME. Not that this is how their marriage works or that he’s petty this way. You know, forget it. He knows his worth and isn’t measured by these little skirmishes so she can stop laughing like Christine Baranski now, thank you very much. Although Christine Baranski is a god.
Sigh.
Much love,
Jason and Vanessa
