I can't think of anything constructive to say at the moment, and am currently in a mood where I want to complain.[1] It's like writer's block.
Some jerk[2] waited until the staff of Perfect Books[3] were all busy and made it out the door with twenty-one paperbacks; apparently their need for Terry Pratchett was too strong for them to take the time for such mundane courtesies as purchasing and commerce. To say I am less than impressed by this is an understatement.
My cats are healthy. Toby and Aby are relaxing even more around each other.
Am progressing in fits and starts through Miss Manners' Guide to Excruciatingly Correct Behaviour.

[1] For what it's worth, I am quite sure that no-one who could reasonably be expected to be reading this is the source of any of my current discomfort.
