...if you spot it, can you direct it home?
So, I am home. The fire is lighting in the grate, my suitcase is empty, and my unpacking is in various stages of disarray (I think we are at Acceptance, because we passed through denial and anger earlier). I have run all the errands and have food, although I have no energy sufficient for putting it in the oven.
I also bought Mass Effect 3 in the video rental place. (They were having a sale. Support local business, right? I don't want to see any more empty shopfronts, because that's just depressing.) I know I won't get to play it for a while, but I'll have it there. To look forward to, albeit with a certain amount of trepidation.
There's also a stack of books that arrived while I was away. Including:
Kari Sperring, Living with Ghosts
MK Hobson, The Native Star
Seanan McGuire, Discount Armageddon
Michelle Sagara, City of Night and House Name
K.E. Mills, Wizard Undercover
Mark Mazower, Inside Hitler's Greece
and my own non-ARC copies of Above (which has a lovely tactile thing going on with the dustcover) and Range of Ghosts (which has one of the most gorgeous fantasy maps I've seen in a long while). And some others, including at least one I have to review.
(I am to review Above and Daughter of Smoke and Bone for Vector, and Wizard Undercover. The latter one I should really review by Monday. Hope that my brain grows back tomorrow for me, k?)
So now I need to add these books to my catalogue and then find the energy to put dinner in the oven. Somehow.
