Quiet day: insight, movies, shopping.

[azurelunatic]

Had a quiet morning, followed up by a visit to the plasma place. I snagged Cyteen as my take-along book, and it hit me with the big Clue Stick: duh, psychogenesis, duh.

After that, I went shopping. I got more air fresheners for the cat box, a new black velvet skirt (my old one went MIA), and, um... oh, yeah. Cough drops. Then, when I hit home, votania needed to send someone to the store for cough medicine, so after I got off the phone with Dawn, I was it, because Marx still isn't up to doing much.

I got wrapping paper, ribbon, candy canes, cough syrup, and margerine. I like candy canes in my hot chocolate, and they were on sale. I'm leaving them in my Desk Drawers of Doom until such time as I summon the motivation to make more hot chocolate.

Stationer/Merchanter universe. Have you ever heard the song that starts out "Captain Signy Mallory has no soul, they say..."?

Can't say as I have.

I really do need to get my arse to a con sometime.

Well, yes, you do, but you may or may not hear that song in the filkroom. I heard it on an nth generation copy of "Horse Tamer's Daughter" (now out of print and extremely hard to find), and that particular tape dates from the days of Firebird Arts & Music, long, long ago.

There's a somewhat famous falling-out between FAM & Leslie Fish, who I believe wrote that song, which is the reason that tape isn't getting back into print any time soon. If you want the whole story, start digging around some of the names mentioned here,</ a>, and here are the lyrics to the song I mentioned.
