And Thanksgiving break week begins. (Well, technically, it's next week, but this is the weekend before, so....) I had to go onto campus today to meet with a student, but that went quickly, and I headed home after less than an hour. A grocery stop, and home; and to my delight there were three boxes on my doorstep, containing the various items I ordered from Amazon last Saturday. I've already plunged into Captain Vorpatril's Alliance. I'm still in the chapters Lois read at RenoVation, but I'm already noticing goodnesses I don't recall from the reading.
One oddity: my copy of CVA arrived without a dust jacket - just an unadorned, dark-blue-bound, hardcover book. I wonder if this is in any way tied to the SNAFU that had Amazon suspend sales of the book earlier in the week? Oh, well - I didn't buy it for the cover art (although I did think that was included in the price).
Looks like I'll have things to do over the break, besides the things I'd already planned....
