I was at a book store and found a Astronomy book that had been sixty dollars and got it at a close out sale for $6.95. That't what I call a bargain. :D I got 2 astronomy books for twelve dollars.

Nah it's like a really famous book, I guess. Like a mainstay of infantry schools from the Navy to the Marines to the Army.

By the way, Happy News?

I just had the most amazing date of my life.

Reanok, what astronomy book did you get? I'm really into astronomy. (I didn't know you were, or maybe I forgot.)

Jt the Astronomy book is Voyage through the Solar system by Serge Brunier and I forgot what the other one was called. But yes I'm interested in astronomy.

Hey, maybe if there was something on the board "helping" with pregnancies, we can get something "helping" with good dates! 8)

Well yes. I continue to write. And on Fanfiction.Net, for those who want, it is possible to cast a glance at my latest efforts. We arrived to
The Ears of the Elves, chapter Forty-four


And here is the beginning of the whole story.

But, I must say, you could also find something else on Fanfiction.net written by me. If you want.

We had an awesome date. Dinner, movie, walk, icecream, talked, drove out to a secluded spot by the river where you can hear the water gurgling and stared at the stars until dawn :D

I had only planned the dinner and the movie part! :D
