Stuff and nonsense.

I'll be seeing Bo Burnham live in Chicago on Friday.  I'm really hoping my husband can come along with me though, since I'll be driving back home (3 1/2 hours) after the gig and me and staying awake at 3am isn't really likely.

 

Husband still hasn't been able to get into the fields to start planting, due to all the rain. This sucks because apparently the later they plant, the lower the yields, which means a lower income for the year. Blah. Go away rain, yeah? Just for a few weeks. Then come back over the summer. Kthnx.

 

Reading... I'm currently sucked into a girlie-sci-fi series that Felicia Day

recommended (via Twitter and via Goodreads... how cool is THAT now?) Right now I'm only on the first one, Gabriel's Ghost by Linnea Sinclair. And loving it. I think I needed some fluff to read since I'm

also (still) working my way through Trick or Treatment by Singh and Ernst.  Why does it take so long for me to read nonfiction? And does everyone encounter this problem?

Anyway, they're good books. Especially the Trick or Treatment - I think it's something that everyoen should read, since it's so hard these days to discern "real" medicine from the quakery. 

 

 

 

What else?  Still planning my fun-exciting trip to England this autumn.  At some point I'll blog in detail about all the places I'll be going and the people I'll be seeing.  It'll be a long, grand adventure, and I can't wait!

And finally, since no blog post of mine can be without a little bit of Tim Minchin, enjoy this nice audience-vid of Tim performing Bears Don't Dig On Dancing at the Melbourne Comedy Festival.
