kaffy_rStuff I'm Happy About
Since I think I've spent too many recent posts bitching and moaning about stuff, here are some random — very random — things about which I'm happy.
I remembered, thanks to this neat piece at Tor.com, how much I adore Cordwainer Smith. He is, as the writer states, one of the Great Peculiars of SF&F. Anyone out there a reader of his work?
In what is a first for me, or certainly for the first time in a long time, I started and completed a news feature story in the same day, without the nerves and trepidation which that task has lately engendered in me; what's more, I feel as if I've done a good job.
After two days of undoubtedly necessary rain, we had a glorious fall day.
I managed to confirm that my iPad and laptop bag, which I'd mistakenly left in a union meeting when I grabbed the wrong bag, was safe, and that I could swap the bags tomorrow. Relief!
I am not achy today, and that's good.
Kitties!
And tomorrow is Friday. Hurrah!
