Disassembly of Reason

. . . this keeps happening.  Must investigate.

So. Thursday. Sunny 40!F!/4C.

Breakfast was the last of my homemade hummus and naan. Am munching on cheddar cheese pretzel pieces as I type this, because (1) they're addictive and (2) I'm snackish. Lunch will be the other piece of lasagna.

PT has been accomplished, as well as a PO run, and a stop at the grocery store. I filled the car up with gas, so I'm ready to go flying outta here on Saturday morning on a heading for Brunswick.

I have not been able to get excited about Doing Something for Christmas. I did pick up a ham slice, and I have yams on hand, so, yanno, ham and and a yam for dinner on the day could be a thing. I also picked up a frozen so-called single pizza (Screamin' Sicilian, for those who keep track of such things), in case that's something I'll be wanting. Oh, and canned chick peas, on account of I am making hummus again.

Mostly, though, it's looking like next Thursday will be nothing any more or less special than all the days have been lately.

The plan going forward is to heat the oven so I can have warm lasagna for lunch, then hit the WIP.

Tomorrow, I need to do a cat box changeout, and also get all my working files off of Steve's computer, where I've been diligently writing, so I can continue to write while his office is upside down and the French doors are being replaced.

I need to decide if I'm just going to set up my laptop in the living room, and write there, or bring it totally back into my office. I'm leaning toward the living room, which will keep the task-spaces separate, and which I've been finding really useful.

Saturday, of course is the pre-dawn trip to Brunswick, two MRIs and home again, where kind neighbors have volunteered to come over and help push furniture around, because the window people require a six-foot clearance. For which I can't blame them and there's no denying that's a full office experience.

. . . I think that's all the news at the moment.

How's Thursday treating you?

Liaden Read-Along Folk!

Here's the link for the Agent of Change Read-Along (which will start in January), so you can bookmark it

If you get lost, all you have to do is look on the menu on the left side, and you'll see, right at the top "Liaden Read-Along" with a down-arrow. Click the down-arrow and you'll see "Agent of Change Intro." Click that and you'll be at the top of the discussion.

Reading does not start here at the Confusion Factory until January. What's up there right now is an intro, with information from the story card, the novel's tag line, About The Author blurb, and a short history of how the novel got published.

Feel free to share the news of the Read-Along with friends, but be sure to let them know that there will be spoilers.

Tali wants everybody to know that I was properly supervised this morning as I wrote:

Tuesday. I have new glasses. Except for a change in color -- the old glasses were blue, these are a silvery pink -- they look pretty much the same. Titanium frames. The prescription pulls the right eye into line, as it continues its descent back into nearsightedness.

Regarding the read-along -- thanks to everyone who chimed in to say that their idea of reading along matched mine, and we will hope that those who were afraid they'd miss something unless recorded due to their work schedules and whatnot are now relieved to know that we're text-based, and they can check in whenever they have time.

So! People of the Read-Along, I ask your input. Do you prefer order or chaos? Which is to say, shall we commit to reading, eh, 50 pages a week, and look for an update on Monday afternoon? Or do you prefer that I just comment as I go along, and you'll catch up with me?

Please state your preference in comments.
