Uber Tired

Here I am. Exhausted. Not quite home yet, though.

I finished the first book in the Rogue Mage series, Bloodring, while traveling. The second half was absolu-fabulous. It's different. It has the feel of neo-biblical-apocalyptic that is truly different from the other apocalyptic fantasy/urban fantasy stories out there. And I have two more books in the series to glom, yay. I'm so glad I didn't give up when I found the beginning slow-going. I'm now fascinated by the whole concept of mage and seraph in a mix of biblical representations. Isn't it strange how that happens?

Adding to my exhaustion, I'd forgotten I was supposed to help build additions to a massive shelving system, so I'd to rush off without dinner or change of clothing. Two hours later, I'm also covered in sawdust and glue.

So, add rumbling tummy and icky-poo to the list.

I've been invited to take a swim in the pool and try the hot tub. It's damn tempting but I'm icky and sawdusty. Besides, I'd also probably fall asleep in the tub. But it sure does sound like a wonderful reward, don't you think?

I also heard there's a hot-air balloon festival in town. It starts at the break of day, though, and I'm so not a dawn person, even though the sight of balloons floating towards the ocean would probably be awesome. But why at stupid dawn? Why can't they do it at sunset instead? Dawn is so not fun.

Yawn. It was a gorgeous sunshiney 70s degrees day, though. How was yours?
