The wrong side

 I was reading last night and it was getting late.  I spotted the time a bit after 0200 and decided I would read one more chapter.

I read more than one more chapter.  As suddenly I could hear dawn chorus and had yet to put down my kindle and go sleep.  And it is not even like Lynn Flewelling is amazing, I have been getting pretty angry at inconsistencies in the story.  She needs a continuity editor.  But I am five books into Nightrunners now so I guess I am stuck sticking out the series - even though it has problems.


The Turkmenistan bots seem to be using Russian IP addresses now as my hits on this are now almost exclusively Russian (though with a smattering of random French, Egyptian and US hits to colour the results a little).  Maybe they had been Russian bots all along, but former posing as being in Turkmenistan.  And no-one cares about this paragraph - maybe not even me.


Otherwise since I last wrote spent the evening of Wednesday at Carla and Ian's doing the D&D nerd thing.

On Thursday night I had dinner out with Firmin, Simon and Joe.  We ended up going to Shitlord's work, so I got to use up the voucher I had.  I also got to look up from my food and see Shitlord giving me a death stare from across the restaurant.  It was like I was suddenly the bad guy.  So I then spent the evening being frustratingly rattled by the whole thing.  While we went back to Simon and Joe's and built some Mario LEGO and watched a semi-bad movie while I pretend to have not seen it before so as to not spoil it for Simon.  But I was too caught up in my own dumb Shitlord-related-thoughts to be dropping spoilers.


Otherwise I have just been in my house, reading and watching too much Netflix (all of Glitch Techs and now the new Lucifer).
