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.

We have one less cynic in the world.
As an inveterate sceptic, I don't believe in jinxing things. Or that there is a deeper meaning to co-incidences. (See Mikes serendipitous entry about his F5 key.) But I have to admit I had a small niggling thought in the back of my mind as I wrote a comment on this guys blog, congratulating him on finding the love of his life. That little voice said "You realise, of course, you're jinxing it right now?"
I have reading his blog for a long time now. Like all the other blogs I read, I first met him through the BuffyBB, homeplace of all the excellent people. And it was the first time I had slapped a comment down. I just wanted to congratulate him and wish him the best.
So I was upset (and a tiny bit irrationally guilty) to read that things had gone totally pear-shaped with him and his love.
Last night I heard the great news that things are better than they seemed. He'll probably update his blog with the details at some point, and when he does I'll refrain from commenting there about how happy I am for him. Just in case.
We have one less cynic in the world today. And I for one am happy to see it.
