Notes from the front

[kiya]

Found a piece of glass we missed from the thing we broke moving in. Fortunately, it is no longer buried somewhere under the callus on the sole of my right foot, which is where it was for a while.

My copy of The Chemical History of a Candle is 98 years old, which explains much about it that puzzled me when I was six.

Randomly flipping through my Lonely Planet USA Phrasebook managed to annoy me by defining 'transgender' as 'annoyingly PC way of saying "transvestite"', or something like that. Mmmmmmph.

I have two Lonely Planet books that I've found so far -- the USA Phrasebook and Montréal. I'm wondering whether or not I need more as reference for the Lonely Planet-style Guide to the Duat I'm still strongly tempted to write. Perhaps I need to travel more so I have a reason to pick up a few more. Oh, the pain and suffering.

Cataloguing books reminds me, once again, that jenett once explained to me what the ISBN numbers meant. I recognise publishers when I do a bunch in a row; for a while on a previous box I had White Wolf's ISBN start in my copy-paste. :P

Damn, keeping a bandage on the sole of my foot is difficult.

I hope teinedreugan remembers to get kibble. The cats are peevish.

I think they were planning on producing a version as a liquid bandage, if they haven't already. Possibly a different formulation (without additives or something?), or possibly the same thing at a higher price - who knows? :)
