Meaty weekend

So far this weekend I've consumed 4 strips of bacon, 12 buffalo wings, one spicy Italian sausage (in sandwich form), one tasty mix of spicy Italian sausage and chicken (in pasta form), 2 pieces of smoked salmon (in sushi form), and 8 pieces of yellowfin tuna (in sashimi form).

Have drunk 5 or 6 beers, many cups of coffee, one fru-fru coffee beverage while putting in a couple of hours on the novel, and watched two Hollywood blockbusters featuring Ian McKellan. Neither of which was very good, but I still enjoyed going out to the movies.

I think in one weekend I will have consumed more resources than many sub-tropical villages.

And it's only Sunday. I still have tomorrow off. I expect there'll be more meat, more coffee, maybe another beer or two, possibly another movie.

Got the Suns-Mavericks game on, Dallas ahead by 2 points in the third quarter. And speaking of b-ball, "Anywhere There's a Game" from the April Realms of Fantasy made Locus's recommended reading list for their May issue, which is a first for me, and a nice little thing.
