Back from Switzerland. Cover not blown. Dispatched with seventeen SMUSH operatives in their concealed missile silo beneath Lake Lucerne. Disarmed supermissile aimed at Antarctica set to kickstart global warming and raise oil prices. Watched as evil mastermind Jaromir Pyts eaten by his own pet eels. Ate chocolate. Yum.

Craig and Marcel’s wedding was delightful. In Switzerland, the wedding reception is like those I’m familiar with, but all the speeches are like the best man’s speech. Which is to say, those with the temerity to wed get ruthlessly, teasingly mocked for the entirety of the reception. Good fun. There were a bunch of photos of young Craig I’d never seen before.
It was pretty cool. I’ll throw up some photos soon.

An RPG system I’ve developed and made available on the web, dREAL, has been awarded a kudos thread on RPG.net. This makes me a very happy moose. Always nice to have things you work on get received well.
Of course, it just makes me want to do more work on it, which isn’t particularly useful right now. It is June. I still haven’t written any Ron the Body since last June (made notes but that don’t count). I’ve taken a year off my novel without even meaning to! Erk.

I am exhausted. But life is good. Now I’m gonna try and knock off a bunch of email. Sorry if yours isn’t one of those replied to.
