GDNGWC and Book Foo

Went down to the Taste of the Danforth today, where I followed tradition and got a gyro. It wasn't the best gyro... could have used more sauce. And meat for that matter. And it was hot out, and sunny, and I could probably have gone to a closer gyro place if I wanted. But it is tradition to go to the taste of the danforth to get it, and even though I made the tradition myself and am often disappointed, I am bound to follow it. Nothing much else to report to it of course, but it was still a gyro, and gyros do not go without comment.

Also, Book Foo!

Finished: Seeker, by Jack McDevitt (Nebula Award Winner).

Thoughts behind cut, not too spoilery. Generally: Not bad.

Started: Cyteen, by CJ Cherryh (Hugo-Award winner)

Once I'm done with Cyteen, I'll only have one more Hugo Award-winning novel to read before I've read every one, and then I'll become unstoppable.

I'm assuming, without any evidence, that having read all the Hugo award winning novels will somehow make me unstoppable. I'm not sure how it's going to work, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed nonetheless.
