Don't know when/if I'll ever see anyone online. Promised Gomes I'd resume use of AIM, which means I can talk to several others of you as well.

Except that my internet is yet agian not working. And the problem is getting worse, so when I get home tonight I have no idea if it'll be working or not. So my apologies, I can't gaurantee if/when I'll be around.

But it should also cut down on distractions, and I'll get more writing done. Am halfay through a chapter of Paradise, have *finally* started the next chap of Treasure, as well work on several different fairytales (and I just thought of a really cute idea for another Cinderella story last night while I was making toast. So that's four fairytales IP now O_o).

It's raining again. The sun certainly didn't hang around long. And I'm still hearing rumors of nasty amounts of snow this weekend.

Oh, Cinci people:

Tony and I were thinking of watching violent and possibly gory movies for Valentines. It's on a Monday - does anyone want to get together that Saturday or Sunday? We'd have to plot where, though if S and I can get it in gear we *might* finally be able to have it at our new abode. We'll see.

There was something else I wanted to say. I seem to have forgotten it. Ah, well.

Oh yeah, I remember now. A couple of things for Sammikins (kekeke):

Am reading American Gods (and jeez, does Neil Gaimen own my soul totally and completely). Anyway, thought you'd be amused by the fact that they've gotten Czernobog (sp?) to join their cause. Aaaaand I'm finally starting to get an idea for that story idea you let me steal from you!

I want to do horror movies too. The Saturday before Valentines should work. And not to be a pain but can we do it at mine and Greg's house? With Alice doing anything outside the house that runs late doesn't work because Alice gets all cranky and stuff and besides I have scary clown dolls to scare Sarah with.

We need to come up with the list of movies to watch too. I know the japanese verion of the ring needs to be on there but not sure what else :)

Nope, your house is fine. I just wasn't sure if you guys were going to in on it. That works fine ^_^

Talk to Tony about the list, I'm sure he's already got one so he can be in charge of that. And the Japanese version of the Ring is more comedic than horrific, at least to me XP

*grins back* It astonishes me he doesn't count himself among the gods transplanted to America, giving the rapid adoration of his fans. Hehe

I am busy every Sunday so Saturdays works for me. I would only recommend my place if there were 3-4 people so we'll go with mikichan's place :) My top two film recommendations are:

I was recommending The Fly (David Cronenberg) for Valentine's Day. Great movie and maderr said she's always wanted to see it or somthing like that.

I was also thinking of The Hidden because it is extremely violent (and is also good). Watching it is satisfying that "playing burnout 3 way." Would also kinda fit a "horror" theme. I recommend it because few have seen it.

To me, the the Japanese The Ring seemed more sci-fi (well, same could be said of The Hidden). Then again, I find it hard to be scared reading subtitles ^^ Of course, if Greg wanted to follow-up The Fly by watching The Thing again the disturbing gore factor of the night would go through the roof. Same could be accomplished by watching Dead Alive and Hellraiser II, but I was thinking more of films less people have seen ^^

*innocence*

see, they spelled it with the Cz thing in this book, it took me a second to realize who he was.

Snarky old slav who likes to bash skulls in with mallets. He lives with three women, all named Zorya (sp?) something. One for day, one for evening, one for night. Fortune teller chicks, I didn't know them.

I wasn't gonna criticize you for the 'Cz' thing. I figure such was the case.

Very interesting... will have to read at some point.

Hee hee. Sandman is what got me addicted to him and graphic novels ^_^ Read Stardust, Neverwhere, Smoke & Mirrors, umm...another short comic that I'm forgetting the name of. Haven't gotten to the other stuff yet, though it's on my list.

Death? or the illustrated story Dream Hunters perhaps?

OMFG I love the Dreamhunters thing. Yoshitaka Amano is one of my favorite artists. SO COOL. But I've read half the whole series, and am familiar with the other half.
