Slowing down a bit from the rush of the cactus release--not easy. Caught up with some news, and read emails (read, not replied--that's for tomorrow morning), but not much else. Thought I'd go watch a movie, but nothing much on theaters to go see, I snuck in two hours last Saturday in the middle of work to watch X-2, which was good, very much like the first movie (looking forward to the third). And Matrix Reloaded is coming up this week--but I'm not sure if I'll see it right away, probably too many people will go in the first few days, and it will be difficult to get a good seat.

In the meantime, I'm reading Stalingrad by Anthony Beevor, which is excellent, and lined up after that I've got Bruce Sterling's Schismatrix which comes highly recommended. I really liked Sterling's Holy Fire but not so much other stuff he's written. We'll see.
