rolanniShouldn't that be a Spring Storm Warning?
Whichever. S'posed to start with The Weather late tonight/early tomorrow and do its thing throughout the day, with an estimated pre-game call of 8-15 inches of what will doubtless be Very, Very Wet Snow on the ground at the end of it all.
May I just say? I'm tired of snow, now. Can we move on? Mud was progressing so nicely...
So, anyway, The Leewit is charging. Paladin is charging. The phone needs juice, too, but it'll have to wait 'til I get home. I have a grocery list to fulfill on the way out from day-labor -- and a good job, indeed, that those unexpected, but perfectly delightful, German royalties dropped into the mailbox yesterday. We can buy cat food, bird food, and people food! It doesn't get any better than that.
I have completed Night Two of the CPAP machine. It was somewhat easier than Night One, and made more comfortable by the fact that Mozart braved the Fierce Breathy Monster and slept against my side for a bit. Unfortunately, I have the mask-straps too tight, and have managed to bruise the bridge of my nose -- right where my glasses rest. I'd feel a lot better about this if I'd managed to land a fist on the other fellow...
I'm thinking that work on George will resume Saturday. I hadn't planned on taking quite so much time off, but Life, it happens.
So! How's by you?

Date: 2011-04-01 12:05 am (UTC)Apart from seeing that nasty four-letter word in the forecast, I had a pretty good day. I decided that 50% or more off was a good enough incentive to go to Borders. This would be that Borders where I never previously found a single copy of any of your books published by Baen. I came home with both Carousel Tides and The Agent Gambit. I was going to leave the latter for someone else to find, but then I thought about how well worn and yellowed my original copies of those books are and took it as well. What I want to know is why those books suddenly appeared now that they are having their fire sale? Were they hiding Carousel Tides in the back room the whole time I was looking for a paper copy? I also saw a number of other books that I'd never seen on their shelves before they decided to close. Failure to take books out of the stockroom might explain a lot about that store and why it is closing.
