    My plan to was go to The Conjuring on Thursday, but my back had other plans. As I reached under my bed to get my shoes, one of my lumbar discs decided to go the other way. So I spent 12 miserable hours until the backcracker's office opened on Friday. Then I spent 2 1/2 miserable days of icing my swollen disc and laying in bed. I have this thing about painkillers--I don't use them unless absolutely necessary (I passed a kidney stone without painkillers once. Once. I got a perscription for the second one). I was so miserable, I didn't want to read, so I started a Sacred 2 character and played him to level 96.

    Anyway, sometime during my bed stay (not sure when), the last volume of EP's Master & Commander set arrived. So now I've got all 20 volumes.

    I think this set will be my goal for next year's reading. I've read the first volume, but I'll probably reread it.

    The bars at the bottom of the spine represent Jack Aubrey's ranking at the time.
