Manga!
Or, actually, manga yet to come. After ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
coffeeandink posted her January manga recommendations, I went through Amazon.com to see what-all I read was out, and aagh! So much! And since my local Borders doesn't carry some of them it would take forever to run around town seeking them, and I'd end up ordering some anyway, so I figured I'd order them from Amazon. And then remembered that Mom is always telling me I should have let her order them, because she has that free 2-day shipping thing. So I did. It added up to about $100 - looks like Amazon is having a 4-for-3 sale on some titles, but I don't know which, but I got one free - and Mom said she'd give me a $50 Valentine's Day gift, so I only owe her $50. I like shopping at Amazon.com. I should really do it more often.

re: BPAL. I ordered the limited edition Purple Phoenix on a whim from someone on the LJ comm. The description is:
Porphyrogenitus, indeed; we worked for it! Not simply the color of royalty, purple is also the color of sorrow and mourning, reconciliation and forgiveness. A regal, majestic, and somber blend of myrrh, plum blossom, African violet, cognac, fig, orris, lilac, wisteria, black plum, and Burgundy wine grapes.
When I first smelled it, it was cold from sitting in the mailbox and smelled like strong grape juice. Which weirded me out slightly because all the forum reviews I'd read mentioned that it smelled floral. But after it warmed up, it became much more floral. Not flowery, but sharp. It only lasted about two hours on me, but I rahter liked it - it was floral for a while, then the grape came back out, but softer than grape juice, and then it just went ... purple. I kind of like it. It's one of the girlier perfumes I've got, but sometimes ya just feel girly, she says, having just ordered a bloody samurai manga and two about an embalmer.
