Weirdest Dream lately :
I dreamed I was on the "other side" when my Dad was passing. I spoke to him and made sure he was okay. Then I woke, and knew he was gone. 30 minutes later, we got the call from the hospital saying that his blood pressure had crashed in the last 30 minutes.
Currently working on :
A BTVS related story called "Long Goodbye" which deals with a member of the Watchers Council being vamped as part of an experiment.
Also completing my nanowrimo effort.
A blog for that outspoken and aggressive member of the Buffy Bulletin Board.

At last!
Well, I finally succumbed to the temptation after seeing all those other people I admire so much with blogs of their own (Eleni, Holz, Mike and Wil) and said "Fuck it anyway! I'm just as loudmouthed as any of them! I want a blog! I deserve a blog!"
And by crikey, I got one.
There were a few teething problems. There always are when I try to impose my will on the universe at large. But I found a way.
I use Opera, the web browser of choice for smart people everywhere. And yet there are still sites (like blogger) who seem to think "standards" are just for other people. So Bloggers non standard website wouldn't let me edit a page with Opera. Apparently, the good folks at Blogger are aware of this, they just don't give a flying monkey fuck.
Well, I also tried accessing it with the slightly pissy IE 5.5, which is as far as I'll let my OS get to with that bloatware. And that didn't work either.
So I was left with downloading the Netscape 7 Bloatware extraordinaire. Which even on my cable modem, took SOME TIME, and when installing, managed to fuck up Opera which was downloading Tatu's lesbian chic video. (Just so I could see what all the fuss was about you understand. :) )
