Some Friday Cheer

Spike!

I am home today since my vision is a little odd due to an eye procedure--but only if I move my head. If I hold it perfectly still my vision clears.

Hope to get some writing done today, and nothing I'm working on has a hero that resembles Spike. Spike just cheers me up.

The character was smart, sensitive, snarky and a drama queen, always interesting. Fans of Spike and of Joseph Campbell saw that Spike was on his own Hero's Journey. On the show we saw his journey from his human days as the lovesick poet William to the vampire without remorse, to the trickster and eventually the savior who sacrificed himself for this world.

Here in central Wyoming it looks like rain! A good day to sit in front of the computer with a cup of hot tea.
