Bad news: I barely slept last night. Between the weather and an overactive mind, I couldn't get comfortable.
Good news (for me): My office has been closed all day due to a water main break. I can access email from home, but the only assignment under discussion yet requires hardcopy. This'll make rest easier.
And why was my mind overactive? I'd just charged to the end of Robert Heinlein's Stranger in a Strange Land. As I predicted, despite more than 1.5 times the length of Dragonflight, it took about a third less time to read. It's much more distinctive and never boring.
( That said... )
My next choice to read is my birthday present, A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula K. Le Guin. I can tell already that it's less original, but it's bound to go fast.
