Bleh.
Today appears to be free-floating anxiety day. Do not want. I did have fun talking with my old voice teacher today, and recommended Neil Gaiman's "Sandman" and Brandon Sanderson's "Mistborn" books for her teenage kids. I hope they enjoy them!
Also, for those of you who haven't heard about it, Ginia Bellafante of the New York Times has managed to offend the geeky public with her so-called "review" of Game of Thrones here. I'm not even sure that she watched the show, and I say this has someone who didn't watch it either. But holy geez is that ever sexist and insulting. I don't care how much you hate fantasy, Ms. Bellafante; your job is to review TV shows, not throw a childish snit about a genre as a whole. "Boy fiction" my foot!
