The Deed of Paksenarrion by Elizabeth Moon which was rereading inspired by [personal profile] ascetic_hedony
Dark Jewels trilogy by Anne Bishop for various bits that make me laugh
Hal Spacejock 1 and 2 by Simon Haynes out of curiosity. Not my scene although I did laugh during the first book more than once.
Vast amounts of SGA fic, I blame [personal profile] maharetr.

Plans to stay up all night comet watching were curtailed last night when the Cosmos Centre called to cancel on account of heavy cloud cover.

Wahh

I'd been looking forward to this for weeks, Comet Schwassmann-Wachman 3B/3C has been billed as one of the of the highlights for Astronomical viewing during 2006. That means we also missed the occultation of Antares by the Moon.

Consolation was had at the Pines in the form of a lot of seafood, I also tried every custard based dessert they have. Mmmmm.

Dinner with the lovely [personal profile] maharetr yielded many delights. Watched my third Supernatural episode, enjoyed myself too, would prefer something less obvious but fun to be had. Came to understand the tragedy that is red/green colour-blindness when contemplating a salad of spinach, tomato and red capsicum.

Have discovered I can lick my own elbow - this is assuming the dimple formed when you extend your arm counts as 'elbow' since I can't quite reach the very tip.
