My new Lumicycle lamps arrived. Yay! I now have a lovely silver lamp that will take my 35W without blowing up — my but the machining on the new ones is nice — and a 15 LED lamp that I shall try out just as soon as I can face going out late enough for it to be properly dark. Even at 1am the sky is still fairly light at the moment.
Just waiting now for my order to come through from SIS, although having had some rave reviews of that Nocté stuff I’m wishing I’d delayed my order to add some of that as well. The PG is giving me a hard time about lack of sleep interfering with my body repairing at the moment (more on that elsewhere later).
Watched an interesting documentary about the original The Omen last night. Much was made of the putative curse. Talking about it with Lucifer later (he does make good coffee — at least, whichever minion does it for him makes good coffee) he didn’t disagree with Frood‘s and my conclusions that it’s entirely possible he would put a curse on such a thing, both for the jollies and for the extra publicity. There’s also no point in him doing it with the new one because the old one did it already.
He doesn’t really like repeating himself. There’s a long story there, a tale of thousands of years of pent-up frustration that has now petrified into bitter resignation and a sort of Buddha-like calm about the whole thing. Morningstar is an angel too after all.
