Futility

[flemmings]

So if, reluctantly, I don't go to meditation and lecture tonight because my throat hurts and my ears hurt and I'm given to hacking coughs followed by explosive mucousy sneezes (doctor has taken a swab for strep and a chest x-ray for I forget what) and instead decide to lie on my bed reading whichever of my trove of books-- you'd think I might actually *lie* on my bed and read books, instead of playing solitaire all evening. As partial excuse, I just discovered that one needn't go searching for the card that can go in the blank space: click the space and the card will come to you. I did wonder how people could win this solitaire in a minute and a half.

Much sympathy, and I hope you feel better soon.

Incidentally, new Aaronovitch (The Hanging Tree) should be coming out in November, and I'll send you a copy then - and one of Library book 2, if I get copies early. :)

A Rivers of London comic has just come out, but I haven't had a chance to see it yet.

Thank you very much, as ever.

I knew about the comic but forgot in my swiss cheese brain fashion. Had intended to investigate venues that didn't involve amazon, like the local comic shop.

The local comic shop might well have it available.
