The last forty-eight hours or so are a complete blur. Yesterday was the sort of day which just seems to explode, everything happening at once, the busyness of writing (though we did manage to proof Chapter Six of Murder of Angels). Then, I had The Crüxshadows show at The Masquerade last night, and we brought the band and crew home with us so they could get a little sleep before continuing on to Birmingham this evening. There are too many friends I only get to spend time with once or twice a year.
I got to bed about 5 a.m., I think. The band slept until about 2 p.m. today.
The phorum is down, as many of you have noticed. Thanks for all the e-mails of inquiry, and I apologize for not having time to address the problem until this evening (and for being too pooped to respond to everyone personally). After the Great Crash of August 8th, and the ensuing stress it caused me, I think I'm forcing myself to take a more laid back approach to web problems. Regardless, the situation is being remedied and the phorum at scaredhedgehog.net will be back ASAP. None of the messages have been lost. In the meantime, Sissy and Kat are setting up a temporary phorum site at LunarCycles. If it's not already functioning, it will be soon. Also, thanks to Larne (Llar'en), who kindly offered us a temporary haven.
My head hurts and I've hardly slept for two days. I'm trying, desperately, to make sense. Trying to be sure the words get strung in the right order.
There's big Farscape news coming. See the articles at TVGuide.com, Cinescape.com, and Darkhorizons.com for the relevant articles. I'm too tired to say much more. Things are happening, finally.
If you're in Birmingham tonight (you have my sympathies), brave the chill, check out The Crüxshadows and pick up a copy of their new album, Ethernaut. Tomorrow night, they'll be playing Tampa. After that, they have only one more US show, in Savannah, before they return to Europe. Oh, I also saw The Last Dance for the first time last night. They played Dragon*Con this year, but I was Nebari that day and by the time they went on, I was too exhausted, and blind from the contacts, to see or hear much of anything. The best goth punk I've heard since Belle Morte.
