I was going to write a whole entry over the weekend about stuff that I was angry about, but I’ve cooled down now. Perhaps it would have been good to get it down, but I did end up talking to people about it anyway. So there is no written record of it… HA!

I just finished reading Sir Apropos of Nothing by Peter David. I know I’ve listed PAD as an interest since forever; I’ve been basing that fandom solely on his comics writing, I’ve never indulged in his novels (Star Trek or otherwise). Let’s just say that I’m glad I bought the sequel at the same time, because this book was one of the best I’d read in a while. I mean, I wanted to reach inside the pages and slap PAD across the face some times for the horrible puns and situations, and for genuinely just messing with the reader’s mind… it was a great time for all. And the third book in hardcover is sitting in my amazon shopping cart. And the Hulk and Daredevil movie novelizations (also written by him) are lying on my floor, waiting to be read. The new Larry Niven short story collection will wait, dang it!

My parents are coming into town this weekend. They get to see my house, which will hopefully be clean[er than it is now] by then. If I can find the hammer, I can hang some of the pictures that need hanging. Unfortunately, I think the hammer is either in Washington D.C. or Redding at the moment… time to buy another one.
