It's been a few days since I updated, but that's mainly because things are very busy in work. I got permission this morning to convert one part of the ASP crud we're working with to Cold Fusion, which is so much cleaner it's scary. But along with that, I've just been informed that a large, amorphous update-the-site project, which was previously timetabled for "after this one" (where this one is in itself amporphous and floating-deadline), now has a deadline of the 18th, eight working days away. Argh. I'm going to go quiz people on priorities shortly.
The Threshold of Ages campaign is running nicely - Nikolai is coming in for some quizzing on his ancestry from the other PCs, after a naval Captain addressed him as "My Lord". And Athel has a sealed letter for the Queen from a (remarkably civilised) tanar'uk called Mathias. We're covering much more ground in a given session these days than we were in the beginning of things - I think everyone is growing to like their characters.
And I'm going to the gym this evening. I don't care how many people there are, or what mood I'm in, the gear is in my bag, and I'm going to go in and do at least twenty minutes on a treadmill, plus weights. I'm looking forward to it.
Finally, I finished War of Honor during the first part of my lunchbreak today - the electronic copy Mac gave me; the hard copy is still shipping from Amazon. For a big book, it was over very fast. The Honormania will now die down until whenever the next book comes out. I'll avoid spoilers here, but there're some interesting plot twists.
