Other things that come to mind: I finished up all the Dresden books that are currently out. Still have much Thomas love.
*gush* Thomas is great isn't he :-D I'm still try to finish season 2 of BSG, yet I'm still in the first half becasue I've been so frackin' busy. Probably not as busy as you though.

I'm crossing my fingers for you on your boards I know you will do well but the finger crossing is extra luck *sends positive good vibes towards D* For the record I'd probably call it my precious as well.
