What I've been up to: Diablo II

I've played other computer games too. And I'll talk about those, perhaps. But I've gotten several characters into Hell now. And I finally finished a second character: my summoner. His name is Master. All of my characters except for him and one other are named after mythical beings. Like with Shamash, I took a picture of this character beating the last boss.
Baal never stood a chance. I had fourteen skeleton warriors, fourteen skeleton mages, one mercenary, one golem, and one necromancer with an axe all beating him up at the same time. Anyway, I intend to do this for my other characters when I finish them too. I'm not sure which one will be next. I currently have four more characters that are already in Hell and five more that aren't quite there yet.

What I've been up to: books

I haven't posted here all year. That's not because nothing has happened all year. Things have happened. I just haven't posted. But I'm posting now. I'm here now. I'm so sorry for being gone. Or something. Well, we have a lot of catching up to do, so let's get to that...

Books:
I used to review or note what books I'd been reading here. Well, this year, I've read zero books so far. I tend not to read books much while I'm in school, unfortunately. So that sucks. I did read some books at the end of last year, though:
  • The Stars, Like Dust by Isaac Asimov
  • The Wind from a Burning Woman by Greg Bear
  • Six Easy Pieces by Richard Feynman
  • All Clear by Connie Willis
  • The Door Into Summer by Robert Heinlein
So yeah. I guess I'm not reviewing any of those. But I did read them. I might have read something else, but those were the only ones that showed up on my checkout history with the library.
