This has been a long, long day, but at least I got to spend a good deal of it outside in the sun and greenery.
A little less than three and a half hours remaining until the final Sci-Fi sponsored episode of Farscape. Then begins the long hiatus. That's how I've decided to think of it. The long hiatus. I've taken great care to avoid spoilers for "Bad Timing." Here at the end, I don't seem to have much to say. I've said so much of it already. I expect I'll have thoughts tomorrow morning, afterwards. Someone asked by e-mail for links to my Farscape essays. The two that are still online are at RevolutionSF and SFSite. The Gothic.Net one is down. I've thought about writing another, post-"Bad Timing," but I'm not sure I have the, uhm, time. Anyway, this is it. The night we've dreaded (well, some of us) since September 6th. Farscape. 8 p.m. and 12 a.m. ET/PT. The (turn your head and cough, please) Sci-Fi Channel, home of Tremors: The Series and Scare Tactics. Turn off the war for an hour and see which cliff we're left hanging from. Too good for television? Damned straight. Oh, and selected cities will see the latest fan-produced Save Farscape commercial tonight.
I've been away from WAR-TV all day. I'm not sure where it stands. I saw some Dantesque photos on AOL a few minutes ago of burning oil fields.
I've gotten no work done today, though I did manage to install an additional 512 megs of RAM on the iBook this afternoon. I can't decide whether or not that counts as work. At any rate, Victoria Regina is now maxed out, at 640 megs. And let me say, she goes like stink. Oh, and I pleased to say that Ryan Obermeyer, the artist who did the design on Rasputina's The Lost and Found will be doing to cover and endpapers of the Subterranean Press edition of Low Red Moon, as well as the cover for To Charles Fort, With Love. You can see some of his work at his website.
