So, the weekend

Saturday had been a planned day off far before the landing of galleys. Steve and I discussed it, and decided that we actually deserved that day off, deadlines or not, so we went south, to a home show, then souther, to the ocean, then bore northwards, stopping to tour that popular tourist attraction Whole Foods, where Cheese was committed, and dark chocolate covered espresso beans were but barely avoided.

Sunday was sit-in-the-living-room-and-proofread-damn-you day. Steve did Conflict of Honors while I finished Scout's Progress and started on Mouse and Dragon. As of this writing, that's three-point-five books down and half a book to go.

Or, graphically:

...yes, we are Completely Made of Awesome, thank you.

Remember! Mouse and Dragon eArc now available here. Tell your friends! Tell your office mates! Tell your mom!

The glamor!

So, the day-job was out of control today and I didn't have the leisure to read but a dozen pages. Came home and got down to it, but my brain melted 69 pages from the end of Mouse and Dragon. Tomorrow, I'm nailing it, s'welp me.

In the meantime, I made sure to put Twenty Big Ones on my in-college debit card this morning. The Plan is to go in early tomorrow and photocopy the bloody* pages (of which there are a disconcerting number) before the day starts.

Assuming that I will finish with Mouse and Dragon tomorrow, then sometime Wednesday (but not early; there's an Official Secretary Administrative Aide Function early) I'll copy those bloody* pages, and we'll make up One Whacking Big FedEx package and throw it North Carolina-wards.

...Then, I can...read Ghost Ship, I guess, and try to take up the threads of that again. I hope my head doesn't explode.

So, again, for the graphically minded amongst us, this is the score to-date:

Have you gotten your Mouse and Dragon eArc? How 'bout your Saltation eEdition?

Did you know that half of Mouse and Dragon is now available to be read for free?

Also? Half of The Dragon Variation
