No it can't be NINETY in May

OMG Why is it so fucking hot? I shouldn't be mostly naked and sweating like I'm out too lose every ounce of water? Gah.

I've been thinking about next year's steampunk symposium instead of doing anything I'm supposed to. I've been thinking about it since this year's symposium when I learned that the theme was Superheroes and Villains. I was thinking of Wonder Woman because it's easy. I mentioned it at rathacon and was met with a meh attitude, and a 'there's 5 of them here today.' I know it wasn't meant that way but it sucked the wind right out of me.

So yesterday in the shower I was thinking of other superheroes I could be. Sue Storm would be easy. I knew I didn't want to be a villain. I'm not really a villain fan (and I'm sure there'll be a ton of Harley Quinn's). But then it occured to me, I could be Mazikeen, not the one from TV but rather the comic book version. And from there my brain went, DEATH. So that' who I'm going to be, Death. All I need is a wide gothy metal belt and a black wig. Luckily Halloween will be between those two things. I might still do Mazikeen for one day. I don't want to wear either a half mask or zombie make up on half my face all day (I'll get hot).

How could I forget how much I love Death?


Also I could use more help. Shall my non-Jana stuff be under D.M. Evans (though I already have a facebook under that name and I dom't really want an 'author page' as they're not very interactive) or I could be Dana Evans or even Dana M. Evans. Thoughts?

This horoscope was emailed to me and I thought hmmm
Gemini
May 21 to June 20

To sleep, perchance to dream, Gemini? This Tuesday, your celestial ruler, mindful Mercury, slips into Taurus and your enchanted 12th house. Until June 6, your imagination will be supersized. Channel that ability into creative projects, the planning of fantasy dates, and a meditation practice. But don't let thoughts run away from you unchecked! You could be a little, er, paranoid over the coming three weeks. And while gut feelings are good alarm bells, they don't reveal the whole truth. If something feels off — or on! — investigate thoroughly and get the facts before you react.

Everything is illuminated on Saturday, when the sun sails into your sign and kicks off Gemini season until June 21. After a foggy, unfocused four weeks your desires become sharp and clear again. Better still? You won't be the least bit shy about asking for what you want and need. A little more breathing room might be one such request — especially if certain people have become a little too needy of your time and attention. Birthday time is when you get to do you. And you'll need lots of room to explore your independent interests...without anyone slowing you down.
