Took light rail to Capitol Hill yesterday evening with the dude. He kind of fell in love with the place.

Finished reading Index, A History of the by Dennis Duncan. Duncan made the topic as lively and entertaining as it could possibly be, though chapter seven did drag a bit.

Finished reading Last Exit by Max Gladstone. Lots of thoughts about the book — reminds me of Stephen King I read ages ago; repetitious and hamfisted observations on the Way the World Is Today; difficult to stay focused on, especially the first half — but in the end it won me over, and I really enjoyed it.
