*Ice cream machine mostly broken today, sorry.
* Part of it is allergies. I don't know if it's pollen, or I forgot yesterday that cilantro is an Apiaceae and I had a bunch of it on tacos at a restaurant. No GI symptoms but I'm definitely tired and my eyes seem puffy and my mood was not good most of the day.
* I am temporarily putting aside "The Black Spectacles" even though I'm almost done because it's at the point where Fell pontificates for pages about his theories of crime, and I had the mental image of the stereotypical "fedora neckbeard" type doing it, and it put me off. I'll go back to it in a bit.
* I did start "Between Two Rivers," which is a layperson-history book of the Euphrates region. I don't know; I find that kind of ancient history interesting - either in the Middle East or the Americas (I have a number of books of pre-Columbian history or archaeology). I haven't heard of any good ones for China or Korea of the same era (several thousands of years ago), or I'd probably have that on my shelf.
* Other than that, the world continues to distress and it does feel like the people who choose to be cruel and do wrong are largely still winning. I started one of the red "Norwegian resistance" hats but am not very far along.
