Wildly stormy day: thunderstorms and hail. NOT the day I'd want to drive across the West Side and out into the Valley for a faculty committee meeting, but lunch with a good friend afterward considerably mitigated the experience. However, I am again extremely tired, probably the result of the cold that still hangs on.
I've been playing the Beta Test version of Diablo III since February: HUGE fun! Last night I tried to download the Beta Test of Mists of Pandaria, and the sucker won't install. Not sure if this is a game issue or a problem with my computer - the download rate here is glacially slow. And at the moment I haven't the energy to do anything but fix dinner and go to bed.
Next week is the Texas Library Association Convention in Houston: I'm on a panel at the appalling hour of 8 a.m. (Multi-cultural Murder Mysteries, with Paula Samuels Young). It will be a quick trip - an over-nighter - but will make for two VERY long days of travel. I'll have to a) check the weather in Houston and b) make sure I've got my Famous Author Drag put together: respectable-looking blazer and trousers.
