It's been intense...day one I had to do 6 doses of one medicine, 3 of another, 2 of a third...then the numbers on the first go down by one dose over the next five days. On the other hand, I lost 5 pounds in one day, so there's a bit of sunshine in there....

Tried it. Nobody believed it.

Doing a tick better, so by Sunday should be well enough (and non-contagious) to do a Glass Box signing for Blackstone Publishing at the LA Festival of books at USC, booth 141 in the Gold Zone.

The publisher sees this (rightly) as an event and is doing everything possible to make this a prestige book.

I've always been prone to both bronchitis and walking pneumonia, back to the 80s. Around the time of B5 I was getting hit twice a year. The damned thing was hiding deep in the lungs then reemerging. So we had to hit it with the maximum dose and finally dug it out by the roots.

The good thing is that if you can handle divination well enough, you can see six months down the road and be able to bypass most of the semester's worth of classes.

Haven't been able to figure out why I've gotten so little work done over the last few months, and been so generally tired, but found out today when a massive ongoing case of bronchitis exploded into full bloom a few day ago. Now on enough meds to start a pharmacy.

Nope, I'm an Oracle. Got my PhY in that arena at The University of Oracular Science, Syracuse, NY.

Seeing a lot of awesome quotes for #SupermanDay but this one by J. Michael Straczynski will always be my favorite!

To a degree, yes.

No.

Don't care. I waited at the corner for her every Thursday at four just as we discussed for three years but she never came by.

Or both....

The swell new t-shirt?

Of course.

What happens when you put Hunt for Red October, Top Gun and The Right Stuff into a blender? You get EARTHLIGHT, my new audio drama from Penguin-Random House. Tons of action and more politically relevant than I initially intended. More here: collider.com/j-michael-stra…

My condolences.

That's because the book on the left is a hardcover, and the book on the right is a paperback. As anyone who has bought the new hardcover can confirm, it is a high-quality publication. Helps to compare apples to apples, not apples to oranges, to make a misleading point.
