Alaric went on a school trip for a week. First time he had been away from home for that amount of time and another event that marks how quickly time is flying past. Unfortunately a bug came home with him and he ended up being sick about as soon as he arrived in Terrace. Next came Theodoric and then Evaric followed. Tuesday night it caught up to me - caught up to me to the tune of 7 lbs in 14 hours. Ghastly. Since then I've been doing some reading - I read The Watchmen which was about Kevin Poulsen's hacking exploits and also a book by Sebastien Junger called A Death in Belmont - Junger wrote A Perfect Storm a few years back and is a very readable guy.
I found myself getting a bit bleary after blowing through a book a day and, since I'm not quite ready to rejoin the living I've been alternating between my office where I peck away at Big$hot and lying in bed listening to Duma Key on my Muvo. Sometimes it seems like the world is full of books and games and movies and it seems like there is little point in making new stuff. My friend Joe used to suggest that we should really be cataloging all that we have before we make more... but I've been very happy these last couple of days to be curled up in bed listening to one of Steven King's latest books. Some new works are better than others but there is always room for more.
