Still capable of being surprised...

Could swear a post or two fell through the cracks. Dunno. But here it is, Monday again, the weekend over.

Anyway, woke early from a good night’s sleep, and went to work on the long piece. Put in the final edits for the boys’ Christmas book, too. Meeting with GB tomorrow to talk about the layout, print times, etc.

Gym was quiet today, which was nice. Managed a nice workout without a lot of interruptions. Got in a walk, too, after I got home. Weather’s still holding strong.

Heard Stuart O’Nan’s got a new book out. Need to latch on to it. C McCarthy’s The Passenger is also due out in another week or two. Looking forward to each.

Not much going on the world of short fiction. Have a handful of pieces out in the mail, more than a few of them for six months or longer. With school back in session maybe we’ll see some progress.

Potato leek soup tonight.

Early bedtime.

Best new of the day? I’m now, officially and forever, a great-great uncle.
