T-minus 0 days to DEADLINE.

August 1st, 2014.

Kellis-Amberlee unified the world in a way that nothing had ever unified it before, or ever would again. Cities burned. Nations died. Tokyo, Manhattan, Bombay, London, all of them fell before an enemy that could not be stopped, because it came from within; because it was already inside. Some escaped. Some lived. All carried the infection deep inside their bodies, deep inside their very bones. They carried it with them, and it lived, too.

The Rising was finally, fully underway. Mothers mourned their children. Orphans wailed alone in the night. Death ruled over all, horrible and undying. And nothing, it seemed, would ever make it end.

RISE UP WHILE YOU CAN.

Yesterday was a flying day. It seemed that Seanan's travel troubles were contagious...I knew it was going to be interesting when, about 45 minutes into the flight, the Captain asked "If there is an M.D. on the plane, please ring your call button or come to the front of the plane..."
An emergency landing ensued. The ailing passenger, a veteran, received medical attention and was rushed to a hospital. We were able to continue to Boston, chalking our delay to helping a veteran on Memorial Day.
I've been trying to download the ebook of Deadline all day, but the release date says June 1, so I'm trying (unsuccessfully) to be patient.
Thursday, I present my thesis. Sunday, I graduate. Monday, I TAKE OVER THE WORLD! Oh wait...That's your job. ;-)
