stormdogI've got stuff up on Ebay for the first time in probably six or seven years. And much more will be coming! I'm going to wait on most things until I have boxes that will fit them so I know how much shipping will cost before posting. But in the meantime, if you want a full box of Monty Python and the Holy Grail collectible card games boosters, or a Fitbit Ultra charging cradle, I'm your person! (I used to work for Kenzer and Company, the business that made the MPatHG card game, among a number of other products.) Tonight, I'm going to order a bunch of Priority Mail shipping boxes so that I can start matching up boxes to merchandise and move it out of my house.
I'm also going to order my school books tonight, since all my professors but one have finally posted theirs. I'm getting excited about a number of them. The book for my LGBTQ class is Queer Theory, Gender Theory by Riki Wilchins. I hadn't heard of her before seeing the book, but having read about her on Wikipedia, I'm really looking forward to seeing the book.
Costwise, the biggest hit will be my book for Urbanism and Urbanization. Cities, Change, and Conflict by Nancy Kleniewski, which will set me back around $166, though I'm going to shop around of course. But that's another course I'm excited about, as it is directly relevant to my interests that motivated me to go back to school. My single history course this semester focuses on the United States from 1953 to the present. There are four books for that one, that all look interesting to various degrees. It looks like I ought to be able to find most or all of them inexpensively, as I think they're popular press books.
My linguistic anthropology textbook has not yet been posted. But that's ok: I've already received Mark Rosenfelder's The Language Construction Kit in the mail. (I'd be highly amused if it turned out to be the textbook, but that seems highly unlikely, despite the author's note about how if your professor has assigned this, then everything will be on the exam. *grins*)
