• What a night!

    30 Jan 2006 » 2 min read about Writing & Publishing

    I turned out the light to go to sleep just after 9 PM. I woke up shortly after 11 PM and some crazy dream that involved the Incredible Hulk, but of which I can recall no other details. When I woke up, I also had a terrible headache. I took a few more Advil and…

  • Dinner with Mom and Dad

    30 Jan 2006 » 1 min read about Writing & Publishing

    Mom and Dad got to the hotel right on time, at almost precisely 5:30 PM. We headed over to Ocean Avenue Seafood shortly thereafter. I got to see (and ride in) Dad’s new Acura, which I think is the same color as Norm’s Acura, and the same model, too, minus the navigation unit. While Norm’s…

  • Just back from Andy and Lisa’s kickball game

    30 Jan 2006 » 1 min read

    Well, I’m just back from Andy and Lisa’s kickball game. They lost, but it was a close game and it came down to a run scored in the bottom of the 5th inning that brough in the winning run for the home team. It was a well-played game on both sides. Lisa had a good…

  • Finished The Many World of Barry Malzberg

    29 Jan 2006 » 1 min read about Reading & Books

    I just finished up The Many World of Barry Malzberg. It was a short read, but I enjoyed it as I enjoy all of his stuff. Some of it is so dense that I’m not actually sure I understand it. But I enjoy it nontheless. Going to get started in on The Best Of Barry…

  • In Santa Monica

    29 Jan 2006 » 1 min read

    I’m here at the hotel in Santa Moncia, just before 10 AM local time. My flight got in a little early. The flight was more than half empty, I’d estimate. There were some bumps, but nothing I’d consider moderate. I managed to sleep about 2 hours on the flight, and spent most of the rest…

  • On my way to L.A.

    29 Jan 2006 » 1 min read

    Up at 4:30 AM ET. I’m all packed and ready to go. The car was waiting out front when I woke up this morning at 4:30, which was good because they’ve cut it close the last couple times I’ve used the service. Looks like my flight is ontime as well. I’ve given Zeke a ton…

  • Finished Harsh Mistress

    29 Jan 2006 » 1 min read

    I finished The Moon is a Harsh Mistress about 10 minutes ago. It was pretty good–I give it 3-stars–but of all Heinlein’s award winning books that I’ve read, I rate it only above Stranger In a Strange Land. I think that Starship Troopers and Doublestar were both better stories. I also liked Podkayne of Mars…
