Where Are You? Tuesday (11/18)

Mom is here for a few more days, Anthony is doing well in school, and the holidays are looming (I did manage to get 3 presents yesterday, so that was actually a big chunk). Luckily, I have blocks of time when I can't do much more than read or write, so my reading goals are moving along well.

As of this morning, I was in a bar in 1930's London, listening to "Sonny Boy," which the crowd is getting mightily tired of, as it's the fourth version for the evening [Jeeves and the Song of Songs].

And in my short story collection, I'm in a large, unspecified port city on the East Coast [SuSu and the 8:30 Ghost].

It's Tuesday, November 11... Where am I?

In real life, we're honoring veterans. There was a parade in Austin, and our high school is sponsoring and event tonight.

I'm at home, figuring out which chore I should do first, before I register some books for the MeetUp tonight.

In my book (Dearly Devoted Dexter), I'm sitting in a stakeout car, listening to a federal agent talk about the meth lab he just found while looking for a serial killer. The broader setting, is, of course, Miami, Florida.

It's Tuesday... Where am I?

I'm on an Indian Reservation in Nevada in the early '70s, trying to avoid getting shot by a wolf.

I started listening to The Blessing Way yesterday after I'd heard that Tony Hillerman had passed. I have a hard copy of the book (actually, a 3-title volume), but am finding that I can take more time for audiobooks (can listen while I pump, or am nursing my daughter to sleep).
