Glittering Enchantment

Encyclopedia Mythica

I just found the coolest reference site! If you're at all interested in mythology or folklore and need a reference source, check out Encyclopedia Mythica. Way cool, IMHO.

Well, on a more sad note, I regretfully cancel my trip to England in May. I knew it was too good to be true. Damn it all to hell. It's not going to work out this year. I've got so many things going on, a trip like that is simply out of reach for me. As much as I hate to admit it, and as much as I was preparing for it (I had read a great little primer on pubs and pub etiquette put out by the Social Issues Research Centre, and I've got a book on Gay London put out by TimeOut on the way from Amazon), I have to put it on the shelf until 2006. This sucks major donkey dick, people. Shit fuck piss.

As it is, I have to plan and take all of my vacations before 1st June this year as after that, I'll be chained to my desk until at least Xmas. I should seriously reconsider my line of work. But I've been through this angst and rhetoric a hundred times in the past, and I'm still here! I guess that means I'm a whore, a corporate, money-grubbing, toe-the-party-line, glory-hole-in-the-men's-room, I-want-my-goddamn-stock-options, hootchie mama. My soul is withering.

Oh, and to the two people who read this thing: I kinda fucked up when I uploaded the latest update to the MT system. I didn't change any of the permissions on files that do all the work. Oooops. So, the comments and trackbacks that were causing server errors have been fixed. "It's called 755, Mike." Just so you know.
