I talked with [livejournal.com profile] hoodedvoodoo for an hour and a half before his cellphone battery died. It was good to reconnect and share our mutual experiences of high weirdness. Writing, zombies, astrology, fru-fru new agers, orgone accumulators, cults, aliens, existentialism, and our wacky dreams were some of our varied topics.

He's an amalgamist. I suppose I am as well. A cosmologicaly amalgamistic mystagogue.

It's been said before, but seriously, this time, I am on the last edit, which is mostly just a quick proofread, of Complex Psyche. After this, we just have to prep a few sample chapters for submission to our first five publishers.

Jacquelyn's been getting quite a bit of work done at school. I feel bad for distracting her when I'm around. I have to learn to be more invisible. I think it will be better once we live together; then we won't have that I-need-to-spend-every-free-moment-together feeling we get.

Aleister Crowley was born Edward Alexander Crowley. He once read that the most famous names, the ones that stick in one's memory, are constructed of a dactyl, a three-syllable verse foot in which only the first syllable is stressed, followed by a spondee, a two-syllable verse foot in which both syllables are stressed. Aleister is Gaelic for Alexander, so he changed his name to Al·eis·ter Crow·ley.

My name is Jer·em·y Par·ker.

I didn't sleep long, but I had another weird farking dream.

Take the Harry Potter universe, add the George R.R. Martin universe.  Make Lucius Malfoy the father of the Stark children.  Add in a strange, deadly force known as the BHODI, who are both a sort of zombie creature and a poison in the food.  The only thing the BHODI can't infect is green tea, or that the green tea inoculates you from infection by the BHODI.

Most of the Stark children had been killed by the BHODI, I remember particularly mourning Sansa.  Lucius, who had been a rich member of royal society, was now working in the kitchens of an old castle.  I felt sorry for him.  I sat there and told him that a year ago (thinking of the events of Order of the Phoenix) I would have done everything to kill him, but now, I felt do bad for him that I just wanted to help him.

Apparently it was a secret about green tea, because he handed me a mug and told me to drink it.  And when I was about half-way done, he said to look in the mug.  At first I didn't see anything, but after I tipped it a bit, I could see writing engraved on the inside of the mug which read: YOU ARE NEW. Then it had a few lines of information about the infection and the BHODI. I then realized that Lucius and I were part of a sort of secret society that was immune from the BHODI and were trying to fight it.

Then I woke up.
