Some News Items

  • I need a title for my Doctor Who-ish time travel story I've mentioned several times in the past.  The title was Ask Me Again Yesterday when I originally conceived it but it's mutated quite a bit since then.  Owl Men from the Next Universe Over doesn't really cut it.  I've devoted quite a bit of brain power to it the last few days and the story is coming together.  I'll be ready when November 1 hits.
  • The Skatelites are coming to town later this month.  Since they haven't been to St. Louis since last century and this will likely be the last time they come though, I have scheduled the following day off.
  • The post office continues to jerk me around.  I got up early two Saturdays ago to retrieve a package during their odd weekend hours only to find out they were mistaken.  Today, I got on Amazon to check the progress of the Doctor Who and Torchwood DVDs I ordered only to find they were sitting at the post office since last Thursday.  Grrr.
  • Just like last year when I was already drowning in unread books, I ordered the Subterranean Press grab bag.  I'm hoping for some Joe Lansdale and John Scalzi.
  • It's not quite time to start taking every Friday off but it's drawing near.

  1. Taking every Friday off sounds awesome. I wish I could do that.

  2. I have a lot of days off left to burn. Four day weeks are pretty sweet.

  3. Hope your SubPress grab bag is better than the one I received today. They're flat-out misleading people at this point...
