Monday is no longer Monday
Body: Surprisingly OK after a weekend spent mostly on my feet. My knees gave me more trouble on the drive home than they did for the entire rest of the weekend.
Reading: I started A Sundial In A Grave: 1610, a novel about what some of the secondary characters from The Three Musketeers were up to 15 years before the events of that book. Very good so far.
Book Review: I finally finished Anathem. It's a novel of applied philosophy and metaphysics, physics and mathematical theory as philosophy, and invading aliens. It takes real effort and patience to read but it's completely worth it.
Hearing: Mountain Stage. I think that by the end of the day I'll have listened to my entire backlog of this show.
Project Follow-up: Returning the rental went smoothly, as did picking up my new car. The most annoying thing about the pick up was having to cut the salesman off mid-raptures because we needed to hit the road. We got into Boston around 10pm and spent the next 47 hours at the science fiction convention Arisia. I had tons of fun attending panels, concerts, and parties. I'll do a detailed post about it later.
Tonight's Project: Dishes, laundry, dinner, maybe some baking.
