Okay, so two of the manga series I've been reading are close to wrapping up: Absolute Boyfriend and Someday's Dreamers: Spellbound. Once I get in the volumes I recently ordered from Right Stuf, I'll only have to buy one more volume each for both of them, so I decided it would be okay to start collecting a couple of new short series -- the keyword being short. I even went to AnimeonDVD.com's manga comparison chart (which shows how any volumes make up each series) and made out a list of possible series to buy so that when we went to Barnes & Noble today, I wouldn't accidentally pick out something with a lot of volumes. I just wanted something with seven volumes or less, that's all.

Well, I found one of the series I wanted, a josei manga called Suppli that sounded really interesting. However, there's only one volume out so far, and I'm not exactly the kind of person who can leave a bookstore with only one manga volume. *laughs* The other series I really wanted was Emma, but they didn't have it, nor any of the other series I was vaguely considering.

Then I saw it.

An Omnibus Edition of xxxHolic. Three volumes in one twelve dollar book.

Before, I wasn't all that interested in reading it, but I just couldn't pass up such a good deal. 

And now I'm collecting yet another long, on-going series. I'm insane. -_-;

Omnibus Editions are evil.

But oh, so good.

Also, it sucks that when we got home from our shopping and checked the mail, there were coupons for both Barnes & Noble and Best Buy (which we also went to, although I didn't buy anything). Why couldn't they come in yesterday? *sigh* Now they'll just go to waste.
