Dear Journal,
Two weeks ago I misplaced a nice book that was published in 1956 by the University Press, Berkeley. I about died thinking of what a loss it was to the library.
Today, I wanted to inquire on what it would cost to replace the book. The library personnel relayed to me that it would be eighty dollars to replace and that wasn't including the restocking fee and the sanction for my losing the book.
The news was bad, but believe it or not, I found the book. Well, I found the book online at a site that sells books.
Who would of believed it?! A book, published in 1956, there online and only for 5 dollars.
There were other books like it, one going for 50 dollars. I though of how great it was that I wasn't too late in buying an inexpensive copy.
In fact, the prices for a couple copies of the book were nice enough that I bought two copies; USD$4.50 and USD$5.00. I'm not taking any chances on the library refusing a single choice that doesn't fit their requirements.
Whew! That was a close one.
自作自受
