Dry Up and Blow Away

Looks like it's time for an aerial burial.

listening: Legendary Pink Dots: The Crushed Velvet Apocalypse (currently, Hotel Noir is playing). I'm feeling nostalgic or lost.
drinking: Tea from France. Black Russian, I think it's called. It has its own special little teapot, too, which is only special in that it bears the logo of the tea's distributor.
reading: Right now? Still creeping through A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius. I can only read it in intervals, because it requires of me a particular mindset, and when I'm not in that mindset, I simply don't want to read it. In the meantime, I'm also reading books on chess, a graphic novel named Ancient Joe (created by C. Scott Morse), H.G. Wells's The Time Machine, and whatever else I find when I'm flitting about in the evenings, tired but not tired enough to go to bed, frustrated at not having done enough, and looking for some way to boost the feeling of accomplishment at the end of another wasted day.
thinking: that this update looks a lot like my last update. I haven't been reading very quickly at all.
playing: Neverwinter Nights, Moonbase Commander.
