Re: Alan Cummings. I can't be objective. I generally like long hair on men and I used to think he was ridiculously hot, but he makes me a little queasy now that he's come out against marriage equality for Americans.
* I watched Memphis Beat out of desperation, and discovered it's improved this season. It's one of those shows that looks good on paper and has a wealth of acting talent, but that didn't gel. It's still rough around the edges, but actually watchable. Extra points for the a capella at the wake that actually gave me the chills. It's still not good enough for my watch every week list, but it's moved up to back up show.
* Today I went half dose on the new drug and am steadily improving. I have hopes of being able to sustain the new dosage and remain functional. We'll know in a few days when my blood level is stable.
* I dreamed that my old school (which has moved to a new location RL) sold the old campus to a school for kids with fae blood. They installed a snack bar for kids with high metabolism in the third floor corner above where the school store was on the first floor and put in a special secure conference room near the upper school principal's office. In this dream, I was a part pwka senior. We were in the study carrel, near the snack bar, working on chemistry homework and discussing music. A girl came along and showed me a revised schedule that said we had three days of extra science in the secure conference room right after English. I'd missed the first day. The time came around and we went. It turned down there was an opportunity to meet the Queen of faery over in another building. It was one time only and only eleven could go. we had to sign a release. i was curious, so I went. it turned out to be a very bad thing. Apparently we were "expensive to procure." they wanted to snatch us and replace us with changelings and there would be a game of hide and seek, the losers to be taken. The whole school was really a set up for harvesting human children with faery blood. The game was fixed, of course, so i fled, flying off across the mansion tops. using trees for cover, old rl instincts for loosing a tail kicking in as I worked for my lead, repeatedly breaking LOS so there would be more confusion when I disappeared for real. (You'd be amazed at how often I had to loose a tail as a kid, I got really good at it.) This is where the dream ended, but i think it could have been an interesting novel.

I was trying to track it down to get the backstory.
