5 things

1. We had a thirty-six hour internet outage yesterday and today. SO not amused.

2. Also not amused by Wisconsin's governor. But yay for the 30,000 protesters!

3. Sean Wallace has posted the cover mock-up for the new edition of The Bone Key. I am in love with the cover art.

4. 169 copies of Unnatural Creatures have arrived! I have signed and numbered the entire print run, and this weekend will be all about making up orders and shipping them out.

5. Today, Milo and I cantered off the lunge line! This is huge, because the last time I tried cantering off the lunge line, back in May, I fell off the horse. It's taken my instructor and me this long to get me to the point where I was ready to try again, and OMG it felt completely different and SO MUCH BETTER. Completely psyched.

That cover looks SHARP.

Awesome. Truly awesome. When I can afford it, I will totally buy a new copy just for that cover.

Many congratulations on the cantering. That's fabulous.

So, not completely certain on this, but I got the impression from the WSJ that it was possibly quite a lot more than 30k? Like both the union protesters and the education protesters managed to get numbers in the 25k-35k range, and those groups were different.

I cannot believe the republicans would look at that and not get nervous about 2012.
