A good thing I took a nap...

alexpgpIt was kind of a late nap, so I'm not terribly surprised that I'm still up and not yawning like crazy.
There was virtually no expansion in the last 2,000 words of the rush job, which was pretty good, because I wasn't looking for any one-day records. I did manage to do a review a couple of hours ago, fixing a number of minor careless errors in the process, and I'm happy that the job went out the wire. I'll invoice it tomorrow (and there is a big sign on my office door to remind me).
For the past 40 minutes or so, I've been toying with the French job, which is far from being as hairy as the references sent along with it might indicate.
At least so far.
I finished Robert B. Parker's All Our Yesterdays, and it was quite a change from what I had become accustomed to seeing from him, except perhaps in his depiction of life between men and women. His theme of "can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em" (no doubt criminally oversimplified by me) seems to be almost a trademark of any Parker story, and it was certainly in evidence here, in a story that reminded me (somewhat) of a tale spun by James Ellroy.
I am puttering along on fumes right now. It's time to shut down the computer and go to bed.
Cheers...
