Palfrey's life

(The title is partially a wish to test Facebook's importing capabilities, as all my public entries here get automagically dragged in)

I started reading "The Eyre Affair" by Jasper Fforde this morning, which so far is a damn good book. Major reason for this post would be a space larger than Twitter for this quote from it:

"They sequenced a Stella's Seacow last week. How do I even get one of those through the door?"
"Grease its sides", I suggested, "And show it a plate of kelp?"

That sums up the book a bit - little bit surreal, but considering consequences of odd actions. I'm currently being very amused.

Also, I appear to have agreed into heading along to a Maelfroth event (LARP-related pub meet) this evening, which sounds like a fun idea right now, but over the longer term may be a really bad idea. Yes, I do want to LARP at some point, but timesinks I already have in abundance.

Additionally, I've just borrowed Maus from ICSF, which looks good, and something I've wanted to read for a bit.
