Not the Book for the Weak of Tech Heart
I’m (re)reading the book Wyrm (I almost but didn’t quite finish it over my Japan trip last year) just for something to do, as if there weren’t any number of things that I could pull off of a list to fill that spot. One thing about the book is that it is extremely tech heavy, so there are all these computer related terms being thrown around and defined. I like every other aspect of the book except for this; people who know very little about computers are still going to be confused by it, and people like me just find it really odd to have these paragraphs of tech talk that has very little to do with the plot of the story. Fortunately since it’s a book about games I can look past that, but it does have its (glaring) flaws.
I have no movie planned for this weekend, but that could all change on a whim tomorrow. I don’t want to fall too far behind in movies to see since I only have about a month left here in Dallas, but it is summer, so I have the time to go see everything that I want. If there is a movie that makes the cut this weekend, it’ll be Up.
