It's that time again. The annual "Whee, I don't want to be a year older" post.

By the time Mozart was 23 he had been composing for 18 years. He wrote his thirty-third symphony when he was 23. Farther ( Read more... )

Happy Birthday!

How do you like House of Leaves? I found a copy recently but haven't picked it up yet. Would you recommend it? You should add the short story anthology If I Were an Evil Overlord. Its really fun.

I was going to try to do this in Latin, but it's far too late for me to think properly. Happy birthday to you!

Ah, I tried doing that three or four months ago for someone else when I was in Latin 1. I gave up halfway through due to confusion and tiredness. :)
Thank you.
