The Month In Review and of Things to Come

This has not been a happy, nor productive, month. Second job? Check. Eight to twelve hour days? Check. Forty one days straight? Check. Less pay, time off, and benefits than before? Check. End rant.

I read and reviewed Ursula K. Le Guin's The Dispossessed this month (which as a hopeful sociology Ph.D. candidate I couldn't help but love) and in a catastrophic computer FAIL, I have nothing to show for it. (I will never trust those work computers again!) I was really happy with that review. I will recreate it as best I can soon.

Fail filled as the month may be, I'm happy with my new book review series, I scored the mother-load from Subterranean Press, (FINALLY!!!) and Franklin Press ( stay tuned...).

In the immediate future I see a beach, and glassware filled with rum and small umbrellas. Past that there is work, Edward Whittemore and Michael Swanwick. If I can persevere through the bad, I think there are better days ahead.

Let the brevity--and heavy overuse of parenthesis--be a sign of my overwhelming exhaustion.

A perfect vision for the upcoming weekend. . .
