I got rather tired on Sunday and then yesterday too, after a slow day on the railroad. So no updates!

The con was fun, and quite well attended. Nothing like the 15000 at the Finncon/Animecon, or however many there were. Or even regular FinnCon, which apparently has 1000 attendees. Yowza.

GoHs this time were Liz Williams and Graham Joyce, both very nice and well-spoken. The latter told very good stories and read like a pro from his own book. I hogged them both at the dead dog party afterwards, muaha. Why be shy and mousy when you don't have to?

Speaking of mousy, the second book of Fafhrd & Gray Mouser stories keeps me occupied. So good! Don't want to do anything else, like updating the railroad reports or even going to a SF pub right now. Frankly, I'm too tired from walking all day.

I'm now finished with the inspections, with 3 days to spare. Or rather, three nights at the hotel that I'll have to pay for even if I check out now. So I'll stay till Friday anyhow, working on the reports. So I don't have to do that right now -- luxury!

Newsflash!

På TV nu hör jag att man numera t o m särskriver det talade ordet! Programledaren i Gokväll uttalar "Amfalfikusten" och "Sorrentokusten" som två ord, "Amalfi kusten" resp. "Sorrento kusten". Otroligt!
