God Auction, the wrap-up?

[triadruid]

Dreamt about ridiculous feats of archery, battling and eventually reasoning with hordes of monsters (a bit like Davy Jones' Crew crossed with Alien's Xenomorphs, in this case), and then reasoning with the last surviving monsters, in order to get them a fair armistice and relocation. Yep, nothing to see here...

In not-unrelated news, the God Auction is done for 2007. Apollo did not win, but came in a very respectable 2nd, and still made some...well, impressions I think with some of his ideas. And the overall total in both food and money donations was massively increased, so that's definitely a success. More pictures can be found here and here, but my favorite is this one:


And now, work.

For serious. If we can ever get to a place where we are not doing the same shit over and over again, I will dance with unrestrained joy.

And I'm not disappointed to be working with Brigid, either. I love Brigid. I'm just thinking, "Oh, yeah, clarity of vision -- let's get some of that!"

Absolutely on the clarity of vision.

It was maybe more a notion that I owed her some sort of public honor after her patronage of the novel. I had the feeling it would be a Very Bad Idea Indeed to make offerings at any other altar. And it's not as if the amount we had to hand to offer would have change the outcome anyway. I was very aware of that even in the moment.
