I'm in countdown. Only six more teaching sessions this financial year. Then I'm in writing mode. I've printed out my second-last set of handouts for the semester. I'm going to be world-building on Sunday and dreaming of ghosts on Monday.

Are you scared yet?

PS I just got a whole bunch of goodies in the mail. Bookmarks, postcards, coffee shells (which I'm taking to Sydney, so if Sydney friends want to try coffee made with coffee shells, they should talk to Iain or Llyn) and, Thanks to the generosity of Specusphere and Harper Voyager, a copy of The Accidental Sorceror. What a nice way to start the weekend!!

Llyn has tried to get me drunk and almost succeeded. However, Iain played the film Primer and has entirely succeeded in turning the whole household (except Trixie) into fans.

Tomorrow I'll be teaching and seeing family, so I'll see you all on Sunday. If you miss me, I advance posted to my food history blog, so you should be able to find me there. If you don't miss me, think of the delicious blackcurrant wine you missed seeing me drink.
