Ick. Feeling awful today. Managed to get something done which was absolutely necessary, but don't feel right now as if much else is going to happen.

Feel better, Vanya. And then tell me about the goth/industrial scene in Seattle.

Who'd know where to start?

First of all, there are quite a few industrial bands who call the Emerald City home- Assemblage 23 and Doll Factory are two which come instantly to mind.
There are a few area clubs, of which the Mercury is my favourite.
Then there's the SeaGoth "Crackboards" (http://pub53.ezboard.com/bseagothforum) which are a regular online haunt for many of the area folk- and are known to suck up as much time as they're allowed. Some good discussions there- the Politics forum is one of my favourites. Smart people, and you don't have to be local to post on the boards- most are Seattle-Tacoma area residents, but we've a few from Vancouver and Victoria, BC; and others scattered about- a few Californians who are past or future Seattleites, a few from metro Detroit, a couple from Tampa who are planning on moving out here in a few years, even a few from Northern Ireland (who come mainly for the political discussions).

Envious.

*whimper*

Why can't I live in a place like this?

Instead I am subjected daily to streetbound, gin-fortified line dancing convulsions and Kenney Chesney CDs stuck on repeat. A place where 'Jesus is the telephone repairman on the switchboard of my life' bumper stickers reside alongside the good ol' Stars and Bars. A place that takes college football more seriously than national security.

Yes, Virginia, there is a Hell. Humans call the place Sarasota. But 'Purgatory' is pronounced G-a-i-n-e-s-v-i-l-l-e.

...now I'm off to the SeaGoth "Crackboards" to see how much of my time they might suck up.
