Wireless service at our house is intermittent to nonexistent. Can occasionally access the Internet via iPhone, as now.
Thanks to the person who sent me Dan Simmons' Lovedeath from my Amazon wish list. Unfortunately, I can't thank you personally as I prefer to do, because Amazon (in a pretty major fail) doesn't let you know who sent you used/out-of-print books. I look forward to reading it, though.
Thanks also to RS, who kindly sent me a very special pencil.
A well-timed royalty check bearing the legend "Soul Kitchen - French publication" arrived from my agent today, so I assume the French translation of Soul Kitchen is in stores or will be soon. Thanks, French readers; you are loyal and awesome.
My St. Francis prayer: Make me a channel of thy peace. Help me to bear pain with grace. Untangle and soothe my mind. Help me to be quiet.
