5 Nov 2010 01:10 pmI dreamt I had the ability to send myself or other people short distances back in time, either in the same place or back along their personal timelines to the place they'd been then, but sending them too far gave me a migraine. In the dream five minutes was easy, a few seconds was effortless, but six hours was near-impossible. Still, that'd be a pretty awesome super power.
For the past several weeks I've been rereading Roger Zelazny's A Night in the Lonesome October, which is one of the most fun books I've got around (I've got to get my own copy of Bring Me The Head of Prince Charming). That's why I've been savoring it and also why I like to leave quite a few years between rereads, so I don't remember every detail. No one could forget the dog protagonist and his canine/feline romance, or Jack the Ripper as hero, or the Elder Gods, but I'd forgotten that the villain is a rural vicar and that it contains a fairly awesome Sherlock Holmes appearance.
