So my "take four days to recover from jet lag" plan appears to have been a good one, except for the part where it wasn't actually long enough, and I am still passing out at inopportune moments. In the kitchen while making lunch. In my desk chair while writing. In the theater while watching Resident Evil: Afterlife (because the T-virus is apparently soothing unto me).

I need to take a shower. I'm afraid I'm going to drown.

So here: have an open thread. Talk about whatever, post whatever, do whatever (although it would be nice if you could keep the Campbell congrats on the "I won the Campbell" post, just to make them easier to answer). Do not expect prompt replies, as I may be asleep. If you do not see activity from me for twenty-four hours, I have drowned in the shower, and the cats have eaten me. I expect it will take them a week or so to figure out the LJ interface and begin posting.

Game on!

This makes me inexplicably happy.

The DDP factory blew up in a terrible accident with the carbonation machine, and.... Oh no, Senanan has to switch to Pumpkin Spice Lattes, and thank the heavens that it's fall, and therefore pumpkin spice season....

An Artificial Night is such the best Toby book so far. I cannot express this enough.

My life is very sad when I consider waking up at 645 for the main day job as being sleeping in.

BUT! I have coffee, and I have interesting discussions on disorders (such as why people are willing to burn pedophiles but turn a blind eye to geriatric abuse and neglect, despite the fact that it is about 9x more prevalent, and certainly just as revolting to molest an old person as it is a child), and I have a lot of overtime this week because the business hasn't totally taken off yet. And the spousal unit is quitting his job on Wednesday (with buffer money!) and someone has to maintain continued employment Just In Case.

It's also far too early for me to be posting random shit to anyone's LJ.

The evolution of zombies sounds somewhat dangerous. Perhaps a spin-off series *g*...

(And they should so read Feed as part of that course...)

I just love Maine Coons. I always have. My cat at home is half Maine Coon--actually half (he's the product of a breeding queen getting outside, from what the shelter was told). He's adorable and I wuvs him, but we're probably not going to take him as my brother, who's somewhat emotionally fragile, has really latched on to him and Beau now follows him the way used to follow me (and still does, when I'm home).

We're going to get one ourselves, probably next spring late or next fall, as finances are very tight right now and won't loosen until I'm really employed again. I do love shelter kitties very much and if we get two kittens, as we've discussed, one of them will be a rescue, but I've always wanted a purebred Maine Coon, and since we're not likely to get kittens until next year, hubby promised me I could have any kind of kitty I wanted.

They published Kenneth Muir's Horror Films of the 1980s. I love them so.

That's pretty much the norm for Maine Coons. I'm getting a blue classic tabby and white boy.

It depends on a lot of factors.

My blue classic tabby and white girl has green eyes with a copper center. Her dad, an untarnished blue, has green eyes with a gold center. By contrast, our queen we had our last litter out of, has the prettiest copper eyes... Though they haven't passed on to any of her kittens :(

You should try the forums! Lots of spoilery book discussion there, although Seanan doesn't read it.

Curious. I thought you had a thing against puddings and custards - how do you and pumpkin tempura fare?

I've had a the evil thought that 'Wicked Girls' might make an AWESOME children's book, watercolor art and everything.
