My anger with the UPS people has dwindled since I've learned that they've been calling our doorbell - it's just not currently, y'know, ringing. So much for getting my copies of Blood & Iron and The Virtu in a timely fashion. Not to mention finally obtaining the DVD of the BBC version of Pride and Prejudice.

I did, however, obtain many other books. Like the Abhorsen trilogy by Garth Nix, and the Temeraire series by Naomi Novik (or, [livejournal.com profile] naominovik). Also Elaine Isaak's The Singer's Crown and Scott Lynch's The Lies of Locke Lamora. Plus more McKinley, The Neverending Story, McKillip, and de Lint. I really ought to stop buying books for a while. But these were free.

[livejournal.com profile] truepenny has an excellent discussion of what rigor means for storytelling going on here.

Tomorrow's my last day of work until I start grad school. I shall savor this month and a half, and maybe actually get some work done on revising Glamour and writing Honour. Eh, one can dream.
