Monday

RAIN yesterday, and lots of it! And to go along with the rain, an astounding burst of avian activity in the backyard. Robins, mourning doves, white-winged doves, house finches, chickadees, titmice, wrens, blue jays, and cardinals, in and out of the yard and at the feeder all day. You can almost see the seed level in the feeder dropping as you look at it. :D

Still have not read the last chapter of In the Light of What We Know. I'm a bit less than halfway through Thomas Keneally's The Daughters of Mars, which is about two Australian nurses with a Deep Family Secret, serving in WWI. So far it's pretty good, although it's one of those novels where the author doesn't use quotation marks for dialogue so that takes some getting used to.

Hm. I wonder if anyone's ever written a Housefic without dialogue marks? (And I don't mean a dialogue-only fic; I've seen plenty of those.) That could be interesting.
