korafoxTomorrow I am going for step 1 of Doing My Part for the country, and attending my election judge class. I am oddly both quite nervous about it and also resigned to it (or perhaps, resigned to the nervousness). Quite out of practice at putting on that particular people face, but hopefully it'll be mostly or entirely lecture rather than any roleplaying or such. I can spend four hours learning interesting rules of election play.
In book news, I've picked Freedom and Necessity by Steven Brust and Emma Bull up again. I bounced off this one twice but am enjoying it a lot better this time. The big difference is that I've read some annotated Jane Austen novels in the meantime, so I have a much better appreciation for the genre as well as the background to understand the context and particular vocabulary associated with the British aristocracy of the 19th century. Alas, I am not going to finish it in time for this year's tally. Oh, well.
Inktober proceeds, though I am behind. I should be getting more work in on it. I'm fairly certain I can finish the Empress before the end of the month, but I may not get a third card done unless it ends up being a reeeeally sparse one.
