Visit to the Baltimore Aquarium today aborted mid-trip, since rain and traffic would've put us there around 3:30. $22 each for 90 minutes at most didn't seem worth it, so maybe we'll try again next weekend. Instead we did a little last minute shopping, then stopped by to feed and entertain the princess kitty that I'm looking in on for a few days this week. Frankly, I can't believe I'm still awake. Except for roughly 45 minutes this morning, I've been up for about 36 hours or so; I consumed too much caffeine too late last night I think and then proceeded to stay up all night reading the Black Jewels Trilogy omnibus. Finished book one ("Daughter of the Blood"), within 100 pages of finishing book two ("Heir to the Shadows"). I'm almost completely certain that I won't start on "Queen of the Darkness" tonight; at least I hope I won't. Sleep is good. We like sleep.


For the Venture Brothers fans, this year's holiday present from the fine folks over at AstroBase Go is up: http://tinyurl.com/3yrkuc The Monarch and Dr. Girlfriend covering one of my favorite Christmas tunes, "Fairytale of New York". (Links there to the previous three holiday tunes as well.)

Hah.. I'm not alone..
Tcepsa gave me Daughter of the Blood Friday or Saturday of Thanksgiving weekend. I was done with the first two books by the following Tuesday.
I read the book of short stories in the same series last Tuesday between 8am and 1:45 sitting in the Baltimore airport. The standalone in that world Invisible Ring, I think, was consumed by the end of day last Wednesday.
OmNomNom!

That's what I did this afternoon. =)
