  1. Juggling the jetlag after arriving home. Vegas was an interesting mix of things. Although finding out that what I thought was meant to be a father-son trip turned out to include a friend of my fathers (a recent divorcee who he used to work with for 20-odd years) and her 15 yr old daughter was something that threw me. Got a few things ticked off the list of Vegas stuff to be done. Including the jumping out of a perfectly good airplane around 15,000 and having a glorious view of the Hoover Dam, the Mojave, and the Vegas sprawl.

  3. Now that's a quotable answer: At the end of 2012, according to EOO, a “rich list” for Chinese literature was revealed, and 31 year old Zhang Wei (who writes using the pen name Tangjia Sanshao) was listed as the richest man in the world of Chinese online literature, with earnings of 33 million yuan over the preceding five years. Of course, to earn that much money, Zhang pumps out an average of 10,000 characters per day. And when asked what it was like to write 26.9 million words over that period, he simply replied, “My hands are sore.”
  4. Watched the first couple of episodes of that Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. Interesting and engaging so far, although I do kind of miss some of the cheesy humour. They do seem to have focused on pushing the gothic horror and weirdness aspect to the story. Plus, I'll admit, I did have a slight crush on Melissa Joan Hart when I was a teenager watching the old show, so I kind of miss that.
