Wailing On a Haunted Kazoo By Night
So last night, the magic show came to an end. I think it went well. The audience responded and laughed at the places that we wanted them to (and even gasped at a place where we werent expecting it). Though Nick did a silly thing with a lit match, he managed to finish the performance without engulfing himself...

Well, I know I'll live to regret this photo...but here is the poster for the magic show my brother and I are performing at Eureka College this weekend.

And...from the looks of it, we'll be performing it at some sort of Burlesque show in Chicago come May (more details later).
Also . . . here's what happened when I got to stressed . ....

Hair today, gone tomorrow . . .
OKso the hair stylist hacked off a ton of my hair (it wasn't really her faultI just asked for more than I realized). And because I never know what I'm asking for when I get a hair cut, never know things like what the effects of my genetically inherited too-too thick hair will do when it's shorter, I...

Fairy tales are more than true: not because
they tell us that dragons exist, but because
they tell us that dragons can be beaten.

So...I posted a long update, full of links and other things at my other journal:

And I'm too tired to go through that again.

Well...
...it's not every day that you find out your mom is wanted in Mexico...
Weird.
In other news, while all of you were sleeping last night, I was trying to figure out what font a fallen angel would talk in.

Indeed. It's really the only way a fallen angel font COULD look!
Heh. I've studied the goddess mythologies of the world for years now, and I've seldom found any di- or tri-chotomous female deity I didn't like. Kali's image is definitely one of the more imposing, however!

HA! She'd have your head for a comment like that.
Tomorrowthat is to say, today, I get to go to Chicago and meet with my would-be artist for my epic poem (she apparently already has some work done). She even said she does medieval letter heads.
This is cool. And that was a passive sentence. Ohand so was that. Crapthat was too

I like your picture and username. You also have some great interests. We should chat some time.

Lenore is beautiful.
I posted a bit more of my epic poem on my MySpace page. Just click if you want to read (the formatting would be a pain to replicate here).
So...is it just me...or does the guy on the E-Harmony.com comercials creep anyone else out.

Sunday, I think the monkey and I will be at the Shedd Aquarium. I'm excited; haven't been out there for a while!
So I've had a few people mention interest in reading my thesis. It's still very roughso I think I will, instead, fiendishly place little bites and excerpts of it, in the journal, for those who are interested. There is a certain magic to things our of context.
OK so if you're just tuning in, I wrote an epic poem. It's about a voodoo priestess, Mama...

You know, I was thinking about it...I think it was in a Madeleine L'Engle novel that I read a passage about angels being quite frightening in appearance. Did you read those?
And have you read "Murder Mysteries" by Neil Gaiman?
Anyway. It is indeed an interesting idea. I would think that angels WOULD be frightening, because of the sheer power involved...Angels are creatures of air/spirit, humans of earth, and the djinn of fire, after all. We're all complementary, but very different.

Did you check out the illustrated version of Murder Mysteries? It's great...I could have asked for slightly more detailed artwork in a few places, but overall, I think the style suits nicely.
Well, that's pretty awesome. Keep me updated on your plans!

Sometimes I wonder if I did something to mortally offend a Model T. Ford in a past life. I have suffered two flat tires in ten years of drivingand they both happened...
