Last night, after a several-hour drive to our hotel, I dropped $106.95 at the Beaverton, OR Kinokuniya Bookstore. Here’s what I bought:

• Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon Short Stories #1 (first print!! XD XD)
• Card Captor Sakura #6-8 (still missing #4, buu)
• Codename wa Sailor V #2 (the renewal tankoubon, missing #1, bought extra copy for Nikki)
• Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne #3-4 (now complete!)
• Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne Artbook
• Mermaid Melody Pichi Pichi Pitch #2-3 (no #1, buu)
• Nakayoshi 2/2005 (with Naoko’s new series)
• Ribon 2/2005 (with the Shinshi Doumei Cross WATCH.)

I bought an extra copy of Ribon 2/05 (with the watch), and will be selling it on eBay… SOLD! I suppose now’s as good a time as any to also mention that, indeed, Ribon is having a shitajiki zenin RIGHT NOW including some killer SDC goods. You can preorder the shitajiki set (with a binder, pencils and other goodies) from a seller I highly recommend, David, and you can see the upcoming shitajiki (and email him) from this page.

Today we’re hitting downtown Portland, Powell’s City of Books, lots of shopping, and inevitably, Sushi Takahashi. ^^;; More tonight!!
