Today

[fallenpegasus]

My brother pheonix_jade called me this morning, to get his LJ password. So now he can start posting himself again, instead of relaying handwritten letters thru me.

Gym was chest. But for some reason, could only do 2 sets of the evil chest circuit.

Finished reading The Atrocity Archive today, which is maybe a little odd because I read it's sequel, The Jennifer Morgue, last month.

Went over to intrepid_reason's place, were I enjoyed chicken cordon blu, artichokes, homemade cookies, and television. "Heros" and "Venture Brothers".

Oh, and my severance check came today. I feel stupid for not realizing it ahead of time, but I was kind of pissed to discover/realize that Uncle Sugar was going to take his regular huge bite. Fucking retiring boomers, and fucking Saint FDR.

I'd ask him this, but there doesn't seem to be a reasonably recent post allowing responses, nor is there an e-mail contact in his user info, but now that he's graduated, what's his contact info? I've another letter written for him (slightly dated now, but..) and would like to send it instead of burning it. :)

The Atrocity Archive was quite good. I'm looking forward to The Jennifer Morgue. I'm also going to try The Hidden Family again; I bought a copy, only to bounce off the opening paragraphs so hard I couldn't stand to read any further. Given that I had the same reaction to Stephenson, and finally swallowed hard and wallowed through the trite opening only to discover he had a brain after all, I might see if I can give Charlie the same respect.
