I really did not sleep well last night. I would guess that I was thrashing around a lot when I did get to sleep as I awoke to find that Avalon had moved to the spare bed in Jude's room.
I can't think why I slept so badly.

Good to meet you last night.

Can you remind me what a shoggoth is (from what people's comments are labelled as on your LJ)? Is it a shape changing monster? I remember hearing someone say once that they wanted a pink shoggoth and me putting this to someone else who said "no, they wouldn't really want a pink shoggoth".

Or I could be wrong and it could be a different thing.

Shoggoths are creatures which were created by the author H.P.Lovecraft.

"It was a terrible, indescribable thing vaster than any subway train - a shapeless congerie of protoplasmic bubbles, faintly self-luminous, and with myriads of temporary eyes forming and unforming as pustules of greenish light"

Thats the best description of one that I can find at the moment and yes it was good to meet you.

“I saw a shoggoth – it changed shape. . . .”

Looking a bit further afield I found this quote. So yes they are shapechanging monsters :-)
