I woke up yesterday with my guts feeling downright awful, though I expect by the time you read this I’ll be much better. If not, then, uh… hm. Problem.
Presently reading a collection of science-fiction stories that I found in a book sale about a month ago. After that is re-reading either The Demon Redcoat or The Battle of the Labyrinth. And I’m still playing Stray.
I’m out of town again this weekend, with even less writing time, so hopefully I can get this out on time and you can read it.
To try something else, I started playing Stray on PS4. It’s fun so far! I’ve just caught up on book reviews/readings, but I should have a couple of really long books to get through soon (if I haven’t already).
I am out of town this week, but I hoped to write a Saturday Note! I thought I’d try to talk about something again instead of doing a sort of argument/criticism piece. And not about Assassin’s Creed this time!
RIP Anthony Head.
My stomach appears to be a lot less grumpy than it was last weekend! I’ll take that win. Next week I’m out of town again, so I don’t know if I’ll be able to get a Saturday Note up in time.
Right now I’m almost done with Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood. Naturally the following game might be Assassin’s Creed: Revelations, but I’m a bit tired of playing Assassin’s Creed games for the moment, so we might take a break with something like Stray. Finishing up Going Postal, then we’re onto a new book.
This one doesn’t really have an argument, it’s more like, “Hey, this is crazy, and I want to talk about it.”
I’ve been out for a bit the last couple of days, so there’s even LESS planning on this Saturday Note than usual.
Presently I am reading a book about medieval manuscripts. Not sure what I’m watching, other than occasional Elementary episodes. Still playing Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood. I’ve got it on the schedule to paint and finally do those Titan’s Curse annotations, too.
I expect to be out of town today. And I had an idea for a bit of a dour Saturday Note, with examples from both fiction and real life, but you know what? The world is messy right now. You don’t need that. We need something fun. So we’re going to talk about a character who is both incredibly awesome and very underrated.
For Reasons.
Presently watching Kim’s Convenience while it’s still on Netflix (leaves in June). Behind on book reviews (again).
Anyway, your Moment of Zen.
AGH I’m so behind on everything–letters, annotations, and reviews. It’s freaking me out a bit.
The NC Zoo is waiting on the NC budget to clear so they can finish working on their new Asia section, by the way. They have a new director, though.
Star Wars Day was Monday, so here’s your jam for the week.
