fruit and books

jackpot at the market...they had dragonfruit, jackfruit, and some yellow fruit that is labelled as guava but didn't look like any guava i know

i also saw some durians, but they were frozen...maybe that's how they keep them from stinking...i wasn't sure about frozen fruit, so i didn't get it

also, stopped by borders again...i think they're getting down to the last couple weeks until closing...they say that they don't have an official last day, but they raised the discount to 70-80 percent...it also seemed like they opened up all their inventory...i saw books that i didn't see yesterday...i got two books by david foster wallace...the pale king and oblivion...the pale king is in hard back, and i don't usually get them...however, it was only 8 dollars, which would have been cheaper than the paperback version...the problem is that they're more cumbersome and you can't carry it around...also heavier to hold and read...i really don't know why people would prefer hard covers over paperback...i also got the gospel according to jesus christ by jose saramago...three good finds for 18 bucks...still high for what i usually pay for books since i get used ones and many are just a dollar each...still a good deal for new ones though
