My silly sister and manga

Okay, so my sister got this coupon in the mail for one of her favorite clothing stores. I think it was something like get 30% off when you spent a hundred dollars or more. It was definitely a good deal, but either because there wasn't a store near her or her local store didn't have anything she wanted, today Laura decided to drive all the way to Humble to go to the store at Dearbrook Mall. *rolls eyes* Considering the price of gas, it probably wasn't even worth the trip, but, nonetheless, since she was planning to drop by here for a short visit after shopping, Mom and I decided we would just meet her there at the mall and save her at least a little gas money.
We just got back a little while ago, and, of course, me being me, I had to buy some manga. Spent more than I wanted, actually, considering I'm trying to save up money for the Season 2 Kaleido Star boxset. (Bad Yume! >.<)I originally only planned to buy Vol. 10 of Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles, but they were out of stock, so I decided to go ahead and buy two volumes of the Ultramaniac manga instead. I finished watching the anime last weekend and fell in love with it, but since the boxset is over a hundred dollars, I figured that getting the five volume manga was a better investment.`Then, just as we were leaving, Mom pointed out an Omnibus Edition of the Magic Knight Rayearth manga that I failed to notice the first time I went through the store. I have to admit, the MKR manga wasn't something I particularly wanted; I already own the anime, and while I liked the first couple of chapters I read a long time ago in Mixxzine, it wasn't something I was really interested in reading. However, just like with Tsubasa, the Omnibus Edition, containing the first three volumes for under $10, was just too good a deal to pass up, so I ended up buying that as well.
So, yeah. I just started collecting two more series, on top of the six others I've already been buying! >.< Luckily, I'm almost finished with Absolute Boyfriend, and both MKR and Ultramaniac are short series that are already completely translated, but still...
I have a sickness. I really do. *laughs*
