Δαφνη Ευτυχια Αρθουρος

At this moment I am not yet a homeowner, but neither am I homeless yet. Actually getting the house looks pretty likely (it's on track but there are still things that could screw it up). Got a busy day performing ahead of me. More when I have the attention span to really write something.

I just finished reading "Goddesses" by Linda Nagata. Wow. Not the thing to read when trying to get to sleep -- too many thoughts sparked by it, too many layers, right up there on Shariann Lewitt's level. Yeah, you expect Good Stuff in a collection of Nebula winners, but still, this stands out. Cool that she got me to identify with a few different characters at the same time, too.

Must remember to thank again the bandmate who dropped a copy of Nebula Awards Showcase 2002 in my lap.

(Yes, I've got a performance seven hours from now and an hour from home, but my body has its own inconvenient notions about when it'll sleep, which is why I was up reading. By the way, can someone who has seen the movie Dune tell me which syllable gets the stress in "wahad"? My instinct has always (well, since the first time I read Dune) been to stress the first syllable, but it's not a phrase I hear other people say aloud.)
