Speaking of reading...not that I was...I took a break from re-reading Stross' The Atrocity Archives (a fabulous book, by the way, eldritch occultism combined with spy/espionage and a little dark humor) to read The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: Black Dossier, which I'd been meaning to pick up for a while and finally did last weekend. Pretty good, if a lot more text-filled than the first two LExG runs. Still, the sheer volume of notes and references to be found in it was staggering. Hell, i thought I caught a lot of the in-jokes and sneaky side-references, but I wasn't anywhere NEAR catching a fraction of them. To my credit, a lot of them were from before my time, but, damn, reading the extensive annotations made me go back and re-read it all twice more. Looking forward to LExG v3 in the near future, to say the least.

Now, I have dishes to do, exercise to catch up on, comics to categorize...I should eat something, I suppose...and I'd like to get a little bit of the City in before my Strike Force run tonight. Just not enough hours in the day, I'm tellin' ya....
