It snowed last night, it was really pretty.

Now that’s a first sentence designed to draw the reader in and leave ’em waiting for more…or not as the case maybe.

Work isn’t fun these days, I’m quite simply not enjoying it and the days are *really* dragging by. Last night I went into town to collect some stuff after work. There were a number of trades out which I wanted to collect so I figured a swing by Comic Showcase would be a good thing. And so it was. I got everything I wanted (being lucky enough to get the last copy of Spooked) so then it was a bus trip home reading.

Almost through the Hornblowers, with some childhood illusions shattered. Hornblower is in fact a bit of a bastard and not the squeaky clean hero I remember from reading them 10 odd years ago. Nor is Bush the brave captain who serves faithfully, he’s some sort of simpering little puppy who got a bad death almost as an after thought. Anyway still enjoying the books, they get weaker towards the end but still fun. Loads of trades now lined up after them which should be good.

Last night seemed to stretch out completely. I thought it would be way late when I got home having gone shopping but the next few hours seemed to drag by which was quite pleasing. I watched the first episode of season 3 of The Shield which was good and set up some nice ideas for the rest of the season and then I watched Bubba HoTep which while being good is WAY overhyped.

Played Eve for a good while too, actually starting to get close to my main goal now which is good. It should open the game up a hell of a lot more. Skills are all coming along well too.
