Friday morning
If you sign up to the new Tor cool blogoid thingy this week, you get a free e-copy of Farthing. I just got sent a link to it, which seems oddly recursive. I don't have my secret decoder ring yet, though.
Also, a hilarious brief review from someone who downloaded it "Very nicely done, surprisingly enjoyable given that it's the kind of heavily political writing I usually thoroughly despise. The characters leap out and bite you." Actually, I must admit that not even the e-version is quite that interactive!
We have two tickets to see Leonard Cohen. I had to stand in line for a bit more than an hour in a long line snaking through Place des Arts, and getting up early didn't help because they went on sale at noon. But actually I had an interesting conversation with the person who joined the line just after me, so the time passed quite pleasantly.
