Exegete. Hee.

I am exegeting the Bible right now. Yay. It's actually a really long and tedious process for only about two to six sentences of material. I have to keep looking at various different commentaries and sources and nitpick things like, Mark says "tear" while Matthew and Luke say "open." And John? John's way out there.

I also just read Revelations for the first time, and I was amused (this is probably not a good thing). But I swear, whoever was writing that had a very fertile imagination, or else he was on some kind of ancient crack, like Coleridge and his poetry. Or Blake. But I finally got to read the first place the Whore of Babylon and the Four Horsemen show up, which pleased me. I like finding the "original" bits of where sayings and whatnot come from. And according to Revelations, Death rides a pale green horse! I didn't know that either. But reading about the Four Horsement in there and the general strangeness of the end of the world made Good Omens even funnier in retrospect.

I love Good Omens. It's one of those fantasy books on the apocalypse in the grand style of Douglas Adams and Monty Python. Hee.

I still haven't been able to find a beta reader for my little Forbidden Game ficlet, but then, that's probably because I haven't been looking very hard. It also seems as though the entire LJS fandom is very small and very non-active. The drabble list has about 6 members =(. Oh well.. at least everyone there posts a lot, inspiring me to write more too! I must keep writing this time and not let the writing muscle fall into disuse, as I do all the time. I also need to write a happy, non-miserable drabble sometime.

I also have grand plans to make more Sandman icons, except Sandman pics are REALLY HARD to find online! Must get my copies back from Cyrus and figure out how to scan! Then I want to make a whole bunch of author ones. And a NJ pride one for hecatehatesthat because I complain about her state all the time ;).
