  1. Managed to complete an overdue peer review and hence, my civic duty as an academic done for the weekend.
  2. Still very under the weather so I've been reading under the covers. The under the weather part is not fun but reading under the covers is always nice.
  3. The music of Loscil. Here's a neat recording of a Loscil show:

(for later, when I am done with this article), rereading Ancillary Justice by Ann Leckie because I'm in the mood for it. Such a great book.

But for right now I'm taking a break from formatting and final copy-edits of this article to fix my dinner.
