So believe it or not, I have actually been doing other things besides fret about my internal organs. To wit:
Friday night: Went to Bakka. Bought The Hallowed Hunt. (I decided, given the rate at which the library, bless it, gets new science fiction and fantasy into circulation I could be dead by the time it actually got to me, and then I'd be annoyed. Besides, you know I was going to buy it anyway.) Stopped by Lush on the way and got a couple of trifles. Fiscal responsibility? What's that? Then got to J's place to find her surrounded by boxes. Wrapped up her china as we watched What Not to Wear and Clean Sweep. The latter is awesome to watch while you're packing because it reminds you that actually your house is not so bad and things could always be worse, like, you could have a kitchen that is all but invisible under the piles and piles of superfluous appliances, pots and pans, and spare containers. I don't think I got all that much done, but she was very grateful.
Saturday: Read The Hallowed Hunt. It's awesome. Exercised enough self-control to put it down at the end of chapter 6, bag all my laundry, walk to the laundromat, and start the laundry going before I picked it up again. Um, I think that was basically it. Saturday was not very productive. But hey, laundry! And The Hallowed Hunt!
Sunday: Helped J move boxes and furniture out of her apartment and into our new basement.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
pariah_ink slipped on the death-trap steps and dropped a desk on his head, so was out of commission with stitches and orders not to nap for three hours or work for the rest of the day (he is fine as far as I know). monkeycommando subbed in and gave me good advice about where to put my desk, which I think I will take. Fortunately, when doing things for J's family you are always well fed. Went home, collapsed in a heap for a bit, cooked 2 kinds of curry with the chicken I'd defrosted on the principle that it would have to be done pretty soon, watched the Beatrice and Benedick bits of Much Ado About Nothing.
Monday: Went tomonkeycommando and S's for dinner (last possible one before the baby comes). Baby is now beyond even the last vote in the pool, which was mine (I think that means I win, but I'm not sure). Baby seems quite comfortable where it is. S has other views. The baby's room is BEAUTIFUL. I am quite jealous.
See? My life is a whirlwind of excitement, I tell you! And tomorrow I get to go to my mum's concert.
Must send good vibes to J for her involvement in the Town Hall of Doom this evening. Eee.

Bender, the ex-puppy in question, will be banished to the farm for a short time until things become less hectic. (And not because S was trying out nursing positions with a doll and looked down to see him nibbling meditatively on the doll's foot; I am sure he will adapt quite happily once it's a real baby.)

Someone else on my friend's list mentioned that she had just completed the entire series and how good they were.
So, Friday I stopped into my local library and reserved Cordelia's Honor.
I figure if you have to force yourself to put it down, a book by this author must be good!
