lagilmanBack on the pony officially this morning, a day or two later than the rest of the world (although I did get work done while I was away, so I don't feel too bad). Coffee brewing, to-do list forming, and a second list of people I have to call/call back/await calls from today.
2009 is supposed to be my Year of Planning Seriously. Yeah, because all my plans previous have been frivolous little fluffs of things, I know....
And I discover that AVG is not accepting my renewal code. I think that goes to the top of the to-do list.
Oh, and to finish up my reading-on-vacation list: For a complete change of pace after THE DEVIL YOU KNOW, I read Georgette Heyers' THESE OLD SHADES, which I'd somehow never gotten to before, and then James Lee Burke's story collection JESUS OUT TO SEA. Beautiful writing, but too many of the stories left me meh. That made me sad, as I'd wanted him to kick my ass instead of numbing it. I know I won't maintain this madcap pace of two novels and a story collection every week, but I'm going to try really hard to keep up with my reading-for-pleasure. Because, y'know, pleasure. That's sorta important.
Oh, and for those of you who live in the EU, I am informed that it's time to register with Public Lending Rights for your pinch of the public library funds... http://www.plr.uk.com/registrationservice/forms/einfo.pdf Never turn down money you've earned!
