August 6 was Chosen

Body: My hands have been weird lately. Not hurting much, but randomly going a little numb from time to time. Bright side, that's the only thing that's bothering me today.

Book Review: Last night I read this collection of some of Oscar Wilde's short stories: The Happy Prince and Other Tales. The only one in this collection I'd read before was "The Selfish Giant," and even that one I only half remembered. They were all lovely little stories, and I wish the collection had been longer. 9 out of 10.

Reading: I just barely started Oliver Twist

Hearing: One episode of Dan Carlin's current events show Common Sense, one episode of Celtic Roots Radio, then music for the rest of the day.

Tonight's Project: Loading the car for Pennsic. There's a slim chance we'll leave tonight, but a 99%+ chance it will be early-ish tomorrow morning.

Randomness: For the first time ever I packed a box of alcohol to take to Pennsic: 2 bottles of my homemade cherry cordial, 1 bottle of chocolate vodka, 1 bottle of rum, 1 bottle of an apple mead from Johnstown Winery (they don't seem to have their own website), and one bottle of Hillbilly Mountain Mash from The Saratoga Winery

I'm In The Mood...

for Celtic music.

Normally, Celtic music is about 20% of my listening*. In the week leading up to Pennsic, it jumps to 80%.


* The other genres that form a big chunk of my catalog are non-Celtic folk/traditional music, classic rock, blues, and filk/fandom.
