Aaaaand...posting again.
So, yeah, I don't post in a month or more, and now two in as many days? It has to be a fluke.
I had a dream last night where I had a daughter. I've never dreamed about anything like that before (at least not that I remember), and it was an odd feeling waking up from that. Just odd.
I hope this doesn't mean I'm maturing or anything. That'd be bad.
On the other hand, I was trying to cut my own hair yesterday, so I guess that's a point in the other direction. And, in case you're wondering or didn't see me yesterday, I don't look like I've got the mange or anything. I basically went to the barbershop immediately after my "experiment" and had someone who knew what they were doing fix my head (at least the hair part of it). There's still a spot where I pretty much buzzed myself, but even that's covered over fairly well. In any case, I don't think I'll be trying anything like that any time soon.
All in all, I can't say I'm sorry that I tried to do this, mostly because I know that it would have bugged me if I didn't. And everyone needs stories of stupid stuff they've done. I just happen to be racking up more of those than most people.
As for things that haven't ended badly, I've read a few books for the book-a-ma-jig:
1) Lisey's Story, by Stephen King. Again, he's been writing better stuff since he retired. Maybe I should retire.
2) American Gods, by Neil Gaiman. I've wanted to read this for a long time. I'm glad I did. It's awesome.
3) Good Omens, by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett. This one I just saw in Barnes and Noble and decided to pick up on a whim because it looked funny. It was.
I'm pretty sure I read one other book, but I have no clue as to what it was. In any case, I'm pretty far behind at the moment. Of course, I'm currently reading the Complete Grimm's Fairy Tales, so that's to be expected. After that, I think I'll finish up some of the shorter books I've either had lying around or have started but not finished. That should put me in a bit better stead.
Also, Eqqus, my latest lighting design project has been getting rave reviews and is Jeff Recommended. So, yeah, it's going incredibly well. Yay!
