all and sundry, one and all

Yesterday, I discovered the existence of the Hakluyt Society, dedicated to the promotion of studies in travel and exploration and the history thereof.

I said to myself, "Self, this is cool," and immediately resolved to share it with the rest of the internets.

(Their journal is available for free on their website. They fail to mention that Cambridge University Press is also reprinting the HS's First Series of books on travel and exploration as paperbacks. They are cool. I covet them. But we speak not of this.)

Anyway. I did not achieve anything of significant note today, except for a walk, and much-needed family time. I also caught up on Criminal Minds (which is too much in love with sexy death this year), and then found the day advanced to this point, where there is not much of today left of today.

How did this happen, that I should have so little time, and find it all so swift to disappear? I cannot possibly consider it fair.

...I hate you. Like a cat.

I bet you have the original series there, too. Not the paperbacks.

Any time. I will take you to the Lit & Phil and dump you there, and you will be no trouble to me at all. Occasionally I will manifest and take you out to the pub, and then deliver you safely back again, and all will be well and all will be well and...
