In something of a State, reason unknown unless it's the State of the world. Tax refund has shown up in my account, so that's good.

Finished Days at the Morisaki Bookstore, sentimental Japanese novel but well translated, which the last translated novel I tried (Tell Me How You Live) most certainly was not. It's a good translator who can turn all those Japanese set phrases (Itte kimasu/ O-kaeri nasai/ O-hisashiburi) into something that doesn't  clunk.

Currently rereading Monstrous Regiment, which might actually be one cause of the present wanhope. Must start on The Fox Wife, another of those 'fifteen people are waiting' books.
