Happy New Year!

[altariel]

We are back from our Christmas visit to K&J&R where we ate and drank and were merry, saw the wonderful and brilliant toft_froggy, played many excellent games, including hide and seek with a tiny person and the highly addictive Zeus on the Loose, and OF COURSE watched Ghost Watch.

While I was away, the cover art to The Never-Ending Sacrifice was released: article about 2009/2010 Trek releases here or cut straight to big image here. I think it's smashing.

Last year I wrote a novel and a short story or two, read many books and essays, became a godmother, and I have landed in 2009 bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. Today I'm going to do the washing, finish Anne Enright's The Gathering, make a planetarium, and perhaps catch up on some email. Happy New Year to you all, may your eyes too be bright and your tails extremely bushy.

Jaded and bedraggled here, but I'm glad some people had a good year. :-) The best of mine was the kittens.

Hmm, well, I spoke too soon about the bright eyes and bushy tail - I've been jaded and bedraggled myself since last weekend.

Another cold, huh? I hope you've been migraine-free. I have three this week; probably the high heat and humidity.

You poor thing :-( No migraines at this end - an extremely cold snap in the UK at the moment.

At least I have something to take for them. A few hours' misery is vastly better than three whole days in bed in a dark room which is what it used to be.
