Love & Hate 12/09/08

Things that Big Dumb Object has loved and hated this week:

Loved
  • SF TV starting again.
  • Doing a SF Signal Mind Meld that included Charles Stross.
  • Talking to a class of school kids about CERN.
  • The Movable Type upgrade almost working perfectly.
  • A monster new work laptop, with blue LEDs.
  • Physics on TV.

Hated
  • Rain.
  • Torchwood on radio.
  • Still no copy of Anathem.
  • Apocalyptic media hype about the LHC.
  • The Movable Type upgrade not quite working perfectly.
  • Feeling the urge for a redesign.
  • Not writing enough.

I think the release of Anathem has been pushed back until October in the UK, which is probably why it's not arrived yet.

Hmm. Most the websites still say 1st September, including Atlantic's, although Play.com says 15th September. Where did you hear the date has been pushed back? That would be really annoying!

Um, that would be off the press release I had off Atlantic Books. It says 1st October.

Oh, well that's annoying! (Didn't get that press release.)
