Listened to a short Jack London novel called The Scarlet Plague today. It was set about 50 years from now, 60 years after a plague wiped out civilization. It may have been the scariest of all the pandemic novels I've picked up this year, because when the virus hits, the yahoos know they're going to die, so they plan on taking out everyone else they can and destroy everything they can. It's too close to the mask-less attitude for comfort.
Mini eaten - very good. Listening to John Veale's second symphony - like the best movie music you never heard. I love this guy. Definite CD of his music coming from us in the future.
I have to keep telling myself that Sasha is basically still a kitten.
She was sitting on my stomach, purring loudly and licking my nose; when she decided to bite my nose instead.
My first thought was to spank her nose, but instead I smiled and said I loved her.
Next Sasha will attack your feet if you move them in your sleep

One has illustrations, so we'll see what they're like.
