Do you know if they are planning to hold it again? It was really great and I wish I could have stayed. Next time I would have asked my boss for the day off.

I went to it. It was pretty cool, though, I have to say, it smelled horrible there. I got three books when I was there, one which was first published the day before. I would have gotten more, but the books there were pretty expensive.

To be honest, I was going to, but I had forgotten to do it until I was eating dinner and I had to leave after that. What time were you there at?
