Your latest purchases, cont.

^I really like my Nexus. How is the 6 different from the 5?

I take it you mean the older 5 rather than the 5x (my wife has the 5X)?

Well it's BIG - much bigger and obviously it has a much bigger battery and much newer faster processor and higher resolution screen. I guess one of the other big differences is the fingerprint reader.
 
^We just got the Nexus 5x earlier this year. I really like it.

So the 6 is more like a phablet? Cool. My hubby has probably already looked into it--he's a real gadget guy.
 
Not a purchase. My daughter got me the Star Trek: The Classic Episodes collection of novel adaptations, as an early birthday gift.
 
I purchased a copy of "Becoming Nicole" for my roommate, as I have a copy, and we are going to be reading it together.



 
Just ordered a DNA testing kit from FamilyTreeDNA.com for the third cousin whom I met last year. Hopefully, I will soon have verification that what I've learned about my family tree is actually true.
 
Got 10 paperback books for $10 at Goodwill:

Star Trek Books (8): Dominion War Books 1-4 (complete), Typhon Pact: Seize the Fire, Ex Machina, Troublesome Minds, Crucible: Kirk

Etc (2): X-Com: UFO Defense, Bufft the Vampire Slayer: The Lost Slayer (The complete story in one novel)
 
Taking the in-laws out to Panera (oy) and then hubby and I made our weekly grocery shopping trip.

You know you've been married for awhile when your deepest, lengthiest discussion of the entire week was about which type of toilet paper to buy. :vulcan:
 
Ordered 15 comics for 5 bucks (with free shipping) from ebay, and it arrived today. I was guaranteed at least one of each of the following: Foil Comic, Bloodshot comic and Harbinger comic in the lot. Based on this, I expected some 90s ridiculousness, and I was not disappointed. What came in the package:

New Warriors v1 #56

We Three Kings #1 (Epoch Comics)

Criminal Macabre #27 (Cellblock 666 Part 3 of 4)

Star Slammers #1 (Malibu Comics)

The Second Life of Doctor Mirage #1 (Valiant Comics)
Harbinger v1 #23
Magnus - Robot Fighter Yearbook #1
Rai and the Future Force #20
Bloodshot v1 #7
The Troublemakers #11 (acclaim/Valiant Comics)
Deathmate Yellow (Valiant/Malibu Comics)

Wildguard: Casting Call #3 (Image)
A Touch of Silver [Three]

Blood + Water #3 (DC/Vertigo)
Terminal City #4

Some good stuff, and some weird stuff. The Valiant stuff is definitely cool, especially Deathmate Yellow (I'll have to get the rest of that crossover eventually). New Warriors was educational, in that I didn't know how badly the 90s hit the NW characters (teeth gritting Nova with mullet was pretty funny, and I didn't know that Namorita went by Kymaera).

Groceries, dinner items and a 3.75" Star Wars figure from The Force Awakens that I already owned but wanted an extra copy of.
