Calories were fine today -- though spent all day feeling way too full. My co-worker brought himself a bag of roasted, salted peanuts. 400g of said peanuts. He didn't eat them all while I was there, but we were joking that it wouldn't be possible!
Foot's healing fairly slowly. I can walk most places with no hobbling, and getting my socks and boots on is still uncomfortable.
I've started reading Ringworld, and so far, it's excellent. I can't wait to read more of it! I would highly recommend it based on the first 90 pages.
I've been thinking a lot about hard SF of late, and I realised that I don't really alternate between technical books and fiction, so much as technical books and hard SF. I think the difference is crucial, and explains well why I'm struggling to keep reading things like LoTR, and a few other great novels, but hard SF books with mediocre writing often have the ability to just pull me in.
