But hey, if there is anything groovier than magic blind people who see dead people (don't ask me how that works, I'm just a nonmagic blind person), it's magic blind *gay* people who see dead people, as in

If you are an actual blind person, magic or not, this book is also available on Bookshare and as an Audible audiobook download. Btw, has anyone tried the combination Kindle ebook-Audible audiobook interface?
Wonder when I'll read a blurb for the blind gay vampire who sees dead people, no, wait, wait! the blind gay paranormal detective who sees dead people...no, never mind, I've actually seen that one.

I just learned that my proposal for a Readercon presentation titled "Ask a Blind Person: What Good Writers Still Get Wrong about Blind People" was approved, hurray! This is the part where I start begging my friends and vague acquaintances to show up for my presentation so I won't be talking to an empty room, and yes, I would too notice!

Also, it is beginning to seem like I may actually really be getting a new right eyeball--I go to my ocularist on Monday, and I have already told LJ user alexx_kay that he is to take pictures of everything, including my ocularist's head exploding when I explain that I haven't changed my mind about wanting the mismatched Delirium eyes.

And I'm also looking forward to Monday because my sweetie will be back after five days at GDC. Of course, it will be a rainy Monday, and Alexx has never been very good at rainy Mondays--he has a rainy Monday face which is very close to his curmudgeon face, but a little lower on the adorable expressions spectrum. Oh well, a sleep-depped zombie sweetie is better than an on-the-other-side-of-the-country sweetie and I'll still be the only one with the detachable body parts.
