So, i'm trying to rest so this chest cold will go away. It's not debilitating, but my voice turns croaky and my body aches.

I went shopping. There are Kindle deal of the day books for $3 each. And then free kindle books -- short stories, mostly, i think, teasers for author's other works.

How could i turn down having these on my phone?

Worst-Case Scenario Pocket Guide: Meetings [Kindle Edition], Price: $ 2.99 -- 20101229 neither as entertaining as i had hoped nor with practical advice.

Always On : Language in an Online and Mobile World [Kindle Edition], Price: $ 2.99

And these -- if it was anything other than moving electrons i'd probably not waste the resources, but, i'll give them a try. Heidegger's Glasses *sounds* good....

Heidegger's Glasses [Kindle Edition], Price: $ 0.00 -- 20101229 Started.
Retro Demonology [Kindle Edition], Price: $ 0.00 -- 20101229 Short story plus first chapter of what seems like a YA paranormal coming of age book.
Money Girl's Smart Moves to Deal with Your Debt [Kindle Edition], Price: $ 0.00
Free Harlequin comics: Something Old, Something New [Kindle Edition], Price: $ 0.00 -- 20101229 It's really what i thought it was and, argh! B&W on the Android Kindle client.
Remedial Magic [Kindle Edition], Price: $ 0.00 -- 20101229 Short story plus first chapter of what seems like a YA paranormal coming of age book.

Once i'd skimmed the free stuff at Kindle i wondered what cheap stuff was available at Audible. Here, the sale prices just squeaked under $10 (real money), but that's over half off. So i scanned the hundred fiction titles for sale and found two novels, about a cross country flight length, each. This is a good deal. I've got a flight in February lined up.
