sick stuff
Some type of nasty bug has evidently decided to take up residence in my honey fenriss's respiratory tract. She's had a moderately high fever since sunday, which hasn't broken yet. We do have her on antibiotics, prescribed by the ER doc we saw sunday night, so with luck we'll see some improvement soon - assuming, of course, that the doctor is right about ( Read more... ) -
Dude... Wow...
Okay, some of you may know that my cousin Sue is an opera singer. She's had a pretty long career, and I was under the impression that she'd retired to teaching now, but apparently I was mistaken. She's beginning rehearsals for a new opera at the Met, directed by Zhang Yimou and conducted by Tan Dun, and starring Placido Domingo.That is so bloody ( Read more... ) -
mp3: See That My Grave Is Kept Clean
This time of year, it's easy to let one's thoughts turn to darker stuff, and it's sometimes difficult to see the bright side that's supposed to balance eveything out. I'll spare everyone the unnecessary details, but I will say that while I've had a few personal losses this year, I've also been unreasonably lucky, all things considered.

two cool things
First cool thing: Last night I finally tracked down the drivers for my USB-cellphone cable, and am now successfully running BitPim, "a program that allows you to view and manipulate data on many CDMA phones". Also, it's free. Sweet. I celebrated this victory by crafting myself a messed-up new ringtone, a spooky broken fragment of prepared piano. ( Read more... ) -
mp3: The Raven
In what should probably be called an act of sheer hubris, I recently decided to record a dramatic (perhaps even... too dramatic?) reading of Poe's spooky classic.
I had tried this one before, back in January, but the results were not to my liking, and I had mostly shelved the idea until my dear fenriss nudged me to revive it. Credit her if you like the ( Read more... ) -
checking in...
Hey folks. The past few weeks at werk have been fairly intense, so big apologies if I've missed any massively huge news on LJ recently, I haven't been very active here since... I dunno, early September I guess ( Read more... ) -
Noisy Help Wanted
I've been thinking a lot lately about starting a dark folk/acoustic industrial band. Any volunteers?
ETA:
Found: One bassist, the lovely Ms. boadiccea!
Still wanted: Laptop jockey, for percussion and mayhem... -
clumsy...
They always tell you that a sharp knife is safer than a dull one. That's usually true, but not if you drop it and slash your own leg, as I did just now in my office kitchen. It's maybe 3/4" down the mid-shin, and not deep or even painful, but it bled pretty good for a while - I suspect the bloodstained sock I'm now wearing will be readily ( Read more... )
