Also In the Mail: Call of Cthulhu: Arkham (featuring the @HPLHS).

More birthday money! Call of Cthulhu: Arkham was something that I couldn’t quite justify picking up on my own, but Amazon gift cards really do make the best gifts. It also came with some lovely props from the HPL Historical Society, because that is how the HPLHS do. I am very pleased to be a lifetime member of that fine organization, even if I don’t have any creative input with regard to their stuff*.

*Yes, I agree, they totally should hire me for things.

Book of the Week / In The Mail: Silverlock, Including the Silverlock Companion.

Happy birthday to me!

Although there’s a problem. Silverlock, Including the Silverlock Companion is pretty. In fact, it’s too pretty. I don’t want to actually open it, it’s so pretty and clean. It has glossaries. It has commentary, including by John Myers Myers himself. It has a bibliography. It has sheet music. Let me repeat that, to anyone who cares: IT HAS SHEET MUSIC.

I almost shudder at the thought of using this book. I may end up only reading it while wearing gloves.

So, I went to a Korean BBQ / Hot Pot place for my birthday.

The Irish pub looked a bit too packed, so we decided to try one of the five other restaurants in the strip mall. The BBQ place won! I was feeling adventurous.

Good stuff. Good stuff, including the 13% alcohol raspberry bokbunja. Basically, I am feeling no pain and will probably retire early for the evening.

…And God bless us, everyone.
