trinityvixenBut first, some pimping. I know I've told some people to read ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
deepredbelle's Mythologies, and if I didn't, well, I am now. She writes like poetry, the good kind, and as anyone in my writing group knows, I'm no fan of poetry normally, so the fact I like this should tell you how good it is.
Also, I am a bad, bad person for forgetting to pimp Silk byfan_elune. I was at work last week reading that and I could have left early; I stayed to finish it. I read Middlesex a while ago, and the processing of silk that she brings up here has that same inside-knowledge feel, and she wrote about Fanty and Mingo, Serenity-only characters, and made them fabulous (as in 'absorbing' but also as in faaaaaaabulous, savvy?). One of the most sensual and awesome backstories for side characters I have ever read, for real.
Aaaaaaand we're back to weekend peril!!! Friday might be movie plans, but my sister and brother-in-law are coming in at midnight to Newark. Anyone know how long it takes to get from here to there by transit and how much? I might just do that and try to make the movie.
Saturday, I think I'll be home to see aforementioned sibling and sibling-in-law, but there's a party I want to go, too. It necessitates finding a costume, a little last-minute, moreover, but sibling and in-law will be at a wedding, so I could probably go. Maybe I could drive down? I have no idea.

You might have to use the NJT, as I don't know if the bus runs late at night. The NJT will be something like 13 dollars round trip or something.
