Sorta Vacations and Steampunk...

This is the evening of the day before my official four-day weekend. A long weekend where I don't have to worry about grading or long drives to visit mom (that will be in a week or two). I don't have to worry about anything except doing some stuff around the house. I will read and go to the movies and watch DVDs and play video games and write.

It will be like a vacation without the change of scenery or extended travel by land, air, or sea.

Lately, it seems that I can't turn around without knocking into something Steampunky. My flist is talking about it (*waves to [livejournal.com profile] cocoajava*). I saw an article on it on Yahoo! News the other day. Three of my listservs are talking about it. BPAL has a new line of Steampunk-inspired scents. Today, the OWW made it the writing challenge for the month of June.

Any thoughts about the sudden mad rush of popularity?
