“There followed a week of the sort of weather that makes folks apt to crawl back into bed after lunch, take long naps, and wake feeling stupid and disoriented.”
-Stephen King, “Wizard and Glass”

That kind of sums up the past week. Add to that another bout of internet problems, and that’s all she wrote. I’ve been tired, cranky, and all nasally-dripping all week, but I think I’ve come through that sudden slap in the face that is the crashing return of Fall in Ohio. It was about seventy the week before last, and then all of the sudden it’s cold and dreary and everyone is stumbling around in a daze.

I’ve been stumbling through NaNoWriMo, but have only done about 5,600 words or so. A bit behind the curve, but the month is still young. I’ve always been a bit of a marathon runner at these kinds of things, preferring to sprint at the end.

I saw the Matrix Revolutions, which was a nice cap to the whole thing. There should never, ever be another one. I know a lot of people are all “this one sucks” but I think that totally misses the point. Those people just want some kind of kick-ass action flick, and while it has plenty of action (but not much in the way of Kung Fu) being just a action movie is past what it’s about. It’s the wrap-up, the finale, and most importantly, a love story. Granted there are more things that they should have put in to really explain things and the like, but these are fun things to discuss.

In any case, it’s dinner time.

Jambalaya! I remain…
