Went back this morning to make sure my part of the site was broken down properly. Which is was… possibly because I went back. It’s when you don’t check that the problems start. The whole event went well, which is always nice – in fact, it’s the goal. Now I can be less responsible for a while…
And now, a nap.
There wasn’t quite tornado-level winds during feast (I was headed home by then), but it was close. I headed back in this morning to do clean-up, check that the site got policed, and whatnot. I am back, and now drinking a cider — and doing nothing else in particular*.

PS: I think it all went well. Nobody came up to scream at me, which is a good sign.
*The cider is almost gone, so now I have to decide when I want my second one. That there will be a second one is inevitable, but I may want to take a nap first. Then again, I’ve been crashing out at 10 PM for the last two nights, so my sleep deficit is smaller than usual.
Amazing what eight hours sleep can do. Anyway: beautiful day, all the stuff I need to drop off is packed, and now I just gotta get gas and drive. Enjoy your Saturday.
The November Event
On November 18, 2007, the world ended. No, really. It happened.
At least, that’s what every single true prophecy and divination techniques known to Man said, as well as all the prophecies and techniques known to those sapient alien and trans-dimensional species who talk to Man, and all of thiose known to the enemy species of Man who we can still comprehend. They were all clear: it would all stop on. November 18, 2007, 13:45 GMT (the exact second was never really defined) . And it need hardly be said that the infighting and score-settling, right up to that not actually last minute, was epic. A lot of things got done that were later regretted, given that the world had not actually ended; the infighting and score-settling (of suddenly new scores) was fairly epic, too.
May/June 31st
99.9999% of the population never notices this, of course; but roughly half the planet (Mayflies) believes that there’s a May 31st, and the other half of it (Junebugs) believes that there’s a June 31st. Why? Because of a fairly impressive magic spell, of course. More on that later.

Dimmets Ascendant
These days are not the same as ‘Fridays the 13th:’ those ‘magical’ dates on the calendar have all the intrinsic occult power of a soggy napkin, although admittedly human belief can generate quite a charge of negative supernatural power if you don’t ground it properly. No, Dimmets Ascendant are entirely a different sort of magical date on the calendar. Meaning that they’re older, meaner, and potentially a lot scarier.
Blame this.
The Chemitron Working
About the best thing that you can say about the attempt in the 1950s to create a synthetic angel was that… apparently it did not manage to infuriate the Almighty. Whatever the ‘Almighty’ even is, in this context. This is one of the problems with attempting to manipulate forces that operate at a higher level of reality than the level that you’re currently inhabiting: you’re never quite sure whether anything happened. Well, unless you crack the Earth like an egg, or open a portal to the Universe of the Entropy Shriekers, or something like that. Something obviously happened then.
