Playing this board game from the 90s with Sprog. In their usual fashion they've then made up their own rules. "You need the lantern to deal with the ghost", "you need the sword and helmet for the dragon." Might be time to try a TTRPG again...

This labyrinth pendant hangs from a hand wrapped chain of Czech glass beads. The weighty, double-sided pendant depicts the Chartres cathedral maze in beautiful detail. The Chartres labyrinth dates from the 13th century, but is an echo of an earlier pagan symbol.

This necklace celebrates the spiral journey: a reminder that there are no wrong turns in life, and though the path may twist and double back, we walk it in love & trust.

Going for a very bright and childish theme in my outfits for this training course (cos it's a depressing subject).

Yesterday I wore my new #labyrinth "Ride Or Die" t-shirt and matching skirt. Today it's a #TMNT tee with my favourite slouchy Joanie trousers.

This #Labyrinth sequel pitch from Andrew Plotkin is pretty freakin' awesome. They should make this:

Look, there is only one thing I want from a Labyrinth sequel, and that's Jennifer Connelly as the Goblin Queen... Mother.

I know, it's tricky. David Bowie was this horny teenage fantasy of Magic and Freedom and Romance; he definitely wasn't a father figure. Do we need a retread of that? No.

So Sarah (Jennifer Connelly) as a single mom, frustrated with her teenage kid, and the kid is frustrated with her. The mom is busy with her job and is never home. The daughter wants to run around the back yard and play with her imaginary friends. Sarah is like "Look, I know! I was your age! The stories are important. But you have to do the laundry and make dinner too! Sorry, I have a late meeting, I have to run."

And the daughter screams "Yeah, go! I wish the goblins would come and take me away forever and ever!"

So they do. Welcome to the Labyrinth. But.

Sarah is the Goblin Queen. She always has been. That's her job. "Away at the office" is "off in the Labyrinth". Ever since Jareth disappeared, Sarah hears the wishes and Sarah cannot leave a wish ungranted. "I have done everything you've asked, turned the world upside down for you..." Only now it's her own kid, and what the teenager wants is for some Mom she doesn't know to save her from the Mom she does know, only they're the same person.

And what Mom wants is for her kid to understand that for sixteen years she has had the power to say "I wish the goblins would free me of this child" and she never said it. But now the kid has said it -- which means it has to happen.

And they're both exhausted by living up to each other's expectations.

Whatever they are to each other, it needs to change.

Sound about right?
