Season Change!
Jul. 24th, 2002 10:46 amYes, even as Seattle still struggles through days with temperatures flirting agressively with the 30 degree (Celsius) mark, it's no longer officially summer for me. It's officially hockey pre-season.
All this on the strength of a dream last night. Hockey dreams never happen in the summer, so since this was the first, it must no longer be summer.
( Details on the dream, if you're really curious )
And now for something completely different:
Over the past few days, the name Sorcha (Gaelic for Sarah) has been popping up everywhere. Part of this is because we've a batch of people from MS-Ireland for meetings- in the last week i've met a Sorcha O'Connor and a Sorcha O'Rahilley, among others; but i've also seen the name in print recently as well. I'm now considering renaming the character Nimuë in Melpomene's Daughter to Sorcha, but it makes me wonder if doing so wouldn't unalterably change the underlying clues about who she really is, which, of course Alexei completely misses anyway. Maybe i'll just take to calling the Sarahs i know Sorcha until i'm completely certain that the Gods are laughing at me.
