<p><strong>Playing:</strong> the tuba, trumpet, or French horn, depending on the day; Elite:Dangerous to decompress</p>
<p><strong>Running:</strong> <a href="https://www.evilhat.com/home/monster-of-the-week/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Monster of the Week</a> set in the Roland-verse (skipping around All-World, various Earth timelines, Delain, &amp;c.); high school RPG group (Traveller via Cepheus engine); and 5e port of ToEE for middle-schoolers.</p>
<p><strong>Prepping:</strong> playbooks for an Age of Sail PbtA game</p>
<p><strong>Current &amp; Last 6 Books:</strong> Seife's <em>Zero: the Biography of a Dangerous Idea</em>; Whitehead's <em>Harlem Shuffle</em>; Dabek's <em>My Father's Wife and My Daughter's Emu</em> which is a breathtakingly good read. I'm stopping the list here to quote to you an email I wrote to the author:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>I've read plenty of books that were perfectly worth their time, and I've read plenty of books that I didn't want to put down. I think yours may be the first that I kept putting down because I just didn't want it to end. Every five or ten pages--not even every story!--I'd walk away and do something else just so I could live a while with this new bit of amazing bouncing around in me.</p>
