Me & My Shadow

 As Pride is happening all around us now and throughout the month of June, I thought I'd share a few links with folks that I just found; which might be of interest to some. :)  (Ones which I wish I'd found eeeeeons ago- as a little bi blind girl. ;))  

For many, it's hard enough to find decent disability resources- if any at all; depending on where one lives.  For many others, the same goes for GLBT-Q-related resources.  But put those two together, and most might think that finding any assistance w/pertinent issues would be a virtual impossibility.  I know I sure did- up until last night. :)  So for those who might be in a similar situation, that's why I'm sharing this with you.  If you or someone you know could use this info, pass it on! :D

As I'm FINALLY seeing a doctor tonight about this owie, swelly throat issue I've been dealing w/since Sat., I don't quite know what my plans will be for the weekend. Either I'll be fine and get to go to flameofsilver's house tomorrow night to celebrate the evening w/him, or I'll be contageous (having already given my entire office whatever I've got), and I'll e at home, likely getting schnockered and celebrating the right to do so while watching cheesy melodrama courtesy of "Dante's Cove." ;D

I'm swimmin' and doin' laundry this weekend regardless, and unless I'm really bad-off sicky-wise, I'll be making people up for THE LAST DAY OF FILMING on the movie project I've been working on since JANUARY!!! :D:D:D ^_^ :D:D:D Yep! That's right! Done! Finished! Kaput! Finite! Terminado!! :D:D:D:D
My weekends are therefore MINE again, *glee* and so I might be doing a lot of things w/my time.. from finishing my place to taking bellydancing classes and a ton of stuff in between, yay yay yay YAY!! :D:D

And lastly, I've found some nifto links through my lunch-hours lately, & thought that if YOU didn't have much to do this weekend, ya might have some fun checkin' these babies out. :D:D

First off, there's Darker Projects.com. They do a ton of fun radio dramas/audio plays for folks who dig.. the darker side of fiction. ;)  These guys have stories featuring everything from zombies to elves, faeries to vampires, C'Thulhu and beyond. ^_^ (And for you fan-folks out there, they even have series' based on stuff like "Dr. Who" and "Star Trek." :D:D) Yay!   My faves?  "The Byron Chronicles," "Alive Inside" and "Gothik." ;)

Next, NIYAZ. If you like Arabic/ME music, CHECK THIS BAND OUT!!! They are ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE, and I was lucky enough to find them on Ioda- so they'll be featuring in my upcoming podshow. :D:D (Prob'ly a lot. ;D)

Next we have Louisa John-Krol. Shis does -amazing- mythology/fantasy/faerie world-based stuff, n' I'm rather shocked n' appalled at myself that I hadn't heard of/discovered her a LOOOONG time ago. If you like good lyrics, a lovely voice and great instrumentation & production (unlike a bunch of the other stuff one tends to find in that musical genre on the internet) you'll LOVE her. I encountered her work on YouTube via a vid about/by Brian Froud called "Muse," and it was all over from there. ;D Check out her new album entitled "Apple Pentacle-" where the "Muse" track came from. ;D

And lastly, athough it's not a link, it never occurred to me to look for things like events and people I was interested in on YouTube. It is AMAZING the kind of stuff that place has to offer... (Good as well as bad. ;))

'N that's it for me for this weekend, kitties! I hope soon I'll be able to tell you I just got a new comp., and that I'll be putting my podshow together soon soon soon soon. ^_^

Take care everyone!
Love Always,
Nae
