Dodecahedral

A small multi-sided block of salt. That's sort of how I felt when I got up this morning. Major dehydration stemming from the, um, purgative effect of last night's Burger King trip (food poisoning, lucky me).

So far this morning I've had 8 oz Gatorade, about 8 oz Cranberry juice, and I'm on my third 12-oz cup of spring water. (slosh)

4. Trading in Danger, by Elizabeth Moon.

A good yarn, somewhat diminished by the need of a good proofreader. Not only not Baen style (two-letter syllable hyphenation in particular) but actual typos.

One does wonder about Elizabeth Moon's background. Typical of Moon's characters, the heroine is not only military, like Moon, but comes from a prosperous and wide-reaching commercial trader family -- so is that autobiographical too?
