Lost in a coma and covered in cake

So Valentine's Day was good for me, and I hope you all likewise had a very fine holiday – or at least a relatively trouble-free Monday, as the case may be. I got my hair color touched up, ran a couple of errands, and then stayed in with the husband for supper … as he's a much better cook than I am.

Good times!

But not so much good blog fodder.

Anyway – tonight I'll be appearing over at Third Place Books (in Lake Forest Park, Seattle-area) to read from and natter on about Bloodshot … and because I've been both (a). busy, and (b). ill for the last week, I completely forgot to mention it. But, yes! Tonight! 7:00 p.m. at that very find independent bookstore! Catch me there if you're interested, and we'll talk drag queens, vampires, OCD, fabulous punk squatters, Men In Black, and more.

(We can also talk steampunk if you like. I'm highly prone to going off-topic, and I don't want anyone to think that any book-related questions are out of line. Heck, for that matter I'll answer just about any query you have, even if it's not about books. I like to be helpful. Most of the time.)

For now, however, I have to get another passel of day-job work done, get myself showered and dressed, and generally get my act together so that by 7:00 tonight I am capable of appearing as a civilized adult. Which is sometimes harder than it sounds.

Have a good one! And I hope to see some of you tonight.
