Mhh well. I still limp about but my physio says I have a huge bruise back of my knee. Possiby I just bruised my leg but personally I think it comes from me having poked about back there in an attempt to feel what was going on.
Spent yesterday evening reading lj entries from 2005. 2003 doesn’t seem that long ago because I've revisited it often, but 2005 (which memory says was utterly forgettable and is thus forgotten) really was another life.
Reading, I finished A Fatal Thing Happened etc, and two Corvinus rereads: In at the Death, where a young senatorial sprig throws himself out a window, and Illegally Dead, about a country lawyer's murder. Would happily reread more but I remember the plots too well, even if I forget the side plots completely.
Currently am not taken with The Bright Ages, A New History of Medieval Europe, because the personages involved are as rebarbative as their Roman predecessors. Thought to reread some of my 'once if that Pratchetts'-- Mort, Sourcery, Equal Rites, Monstrous Regiment-- but unfortunately began with The Amazing Maurice, which is far darker than I'd remembered. Am also having twinges of spring SAD, not helped by twinges of spring allergies, and downer books do not help.
Oh, and saw SND in her back yard playing with her new pupper. Who really does look like a beagle puppy and not a chihuahua anything. Maybe it's another rescue dog entirely?
