I had a horrible dream last night that I adopted a dog. It wasn't a horrible dream *because* I adopted the dog, bear in mind. I'm very fond of dogs, and if my health were better, would consider having one of my own (a dog is a lot more work than a cat). Nonetheless, it was a horrible dream, and I had this damn dog to worry about on top of whatever was chasing us. One of those dreams where you're very happy to wake up.
Ever since I installed the new operating system on Aeryn Sun (my phone), all my music playlists have disappeared. They're still there on John Henry (my laptop), so it's not like they've vanished into the ether, but I'd like to be able to listen to my playlists on Aeryn sometime. I was supposed to go to the Genius Bar (stupid name) this afternoon, but my period started unexpectedly last night, and I ended up rescheduling.
Having reread His Majesty's Dragon/Temeraire several times (I hate it when books have different titles in different countries), I am now rereading Throne of Jade. Also rereading Frank McLynn's Napoleon to get a refresher on the REAL Napoleonic Wars. I know Peter Jackson optioned the movie rights to Temeraire, but is there any chance that the movie will actually get made? It sounds like it would be very expensive, with all the dragons to CGI in. But Jackson does rather specialize in adaptations from books with cult followings, featuring lots of CGI creatures.
