But if I could have a hundred homes and dwell in each a while

[sovay]

After little deliberation but many shenanigans, NecronomiCon Providence is rescheduling from this summer to the next. There are plans in the works for some virtual events this August, but mostly there are plans not to make Pestilence the lifetime guest of honor. I'm for it.

I can tell I am still in recovery from the shot because I slept another stunned eleven hours and managed to work exactly two hours before my brain went flat as seltzer, but my arm hardly hurts at all. I had complicated dreams about a theater owned for just about a century by the same Russian mob family and I can't tell you how much I resent not remembering the majority of the plot while retaining a hitman's nickname based on a stupid pun.

I have no idea what Allan Arkush's Rock 'n' Roll High School (1979) is doing on the Criterion Channel, but I am committed to watching it before it disappears. spatch has been quoting "Do you parents know you're Ramones?" at me for years.

I laughed at Pestilence and GOH status.

I started Brother from Another Planet! Enjoying it so far--it's very beautiful to *look* at, in addition to everything else.

I saw Rock'n'Roll High School in the theater when it came out (and then at least a couple of times the following year when it was a midnight movie). Enjoy it!

I'm so glad your arm feels better. I keep poking mine, but it won't hurt. Raphael thinks I am pretty funny. David would too if he were not in quarantine after travel. He can think that starting Friday.

Go ahead. Break Pestilence's heart. They've been dreaming of a comeback since the age of the silents. Not going to happen. Not on our watch.

So glad that your reaction to the shot is waning.
