Illness, snow, blog

[ciphergoth]

Am off work with a cold. lovelybug also has this cold. Doubtless bathtubgin will soon be infected. I have spent the whole day in my pyjamas, dressing gown and monster slippers, looking at the snow through the window and lying on the floor playing SSX Tricky, which I am now far too good at.

booklectic persuaded me that I should start a proper blog, but the technical work is easier than the actual writing work! It finally has exactly one proper entry: a discussion of Jerry Coyne's book review on theistic evolution and convergent evolution. Hopefully it won't sit there lonely for too long.

Admittedly, I am loving this image. ;-)

By "monster" I do not mean that they are large; I mean that they are covered with grey fur and have three large black talons sticking out. They were a present from lovelybug's parents.

Strangely (or perhaps not so strangely), I had assumed exactly that. I guess that 'monster' means to me just what it's supposed to in this context.

(maybe Yanks don't use the word 'monster' to mean 'big'. At least, this one doesn't)

I don't. :) I was assuming monster feet.
