Spent the entire day reorganizing the comics, and marking lots of them down (lots of $1.00 and 45 cent comics in the boxes now) , finally finished getting them in more-or-less alphabetical order by title, regardless of publisher. (they had previously been in alpha order by title, but broken down into publisher and subject categories)

First Friday 17

Nicely busy, and not much in the way of annoyances. It's too busy on First Friday to give personal service to every inquiry, and some people just won't wait their turn to ask a question, but beyond a few rude fellows it was good.

Processed and packed a giant pile of online orders, many of which were late due to Amazon.com's problems, but at least it seems to be fixed now.
~
Purchased three boxes of very good titles first thing in the morning, and one rare 1720's book in the afternoon. It may be a while before some of them show up on the shelves as it will take some time to check them.
