I haven't been in fandom much lately. Part of that has to do with starting to develop more of my RL community; part of it has had to do with the fire in our building in February; part of it has to do with the fact that my original writing is taking off (although I still get all kinds of fanfic ideas--I expect that impulse will never die ( Read more... )

The halfway mark, only 8 months into the year. Maybe I'll actually get all of the books on this list read. :)

This was a difficult, absorbing book--so full of ideas that I often had to take a few days' break between chapters or sections in order to assimilate what I'd already read.

So the night before last I dreamed that I was living somewhere with my brothers. It was a quiet, normal autumn afternoon... until I noticed that all the clocks were misbehaving. Digital displays were corrupted, or showed the wrong time, or randomly skipped from, say, 4:13 to 1:07 to 11:55. There were even two old clocks, the type that showed the ( Read more... )

So last night I dreamed (among anxiety stuff like being late for a plane) that I was at a tiny Supernatural convention. Guest: Misha Collins. Being very much Misha and not like Castiel at all. :)

Odd dream: I was driving a car by touch. And by that I mean it was black, utterly dark night, and I was driving said car on twisty roads at relatively high speeds without any visual referents--completely by the feel of the road through the tires and frame.

I wasn't particularly nervous about it, either. It felt kind of "normal."

Seriously. All week, insane dreams, and the past two nights, insane dreams with unpleasant or annoying emotional side effects.

( Night before last, mid-apocalypse; last night, serial killers and relationship anxiety )

I dreamed about ALL 10 of the Doctor's incarnations last night. Seriously, all of them (although not all at once). I specifically recall interacting with Two, Four, Six (a nice trick, as I have yet to see Six in anything), and Nine.
