blamebrampton: 15th century woodcut of a hound (Default)
I sent the last of the Evil Mag Of Doom today and gave the editor in chief the Five-Point Plan for Seizing Control, of which one point is negotiable and the rest will need to be met or I will just run away and do something less exhausting.

The nice thing was everyone else saying what a dream production it had been. Alas, it has come at the expense of my sanity and ability to speak English. My Italian is doomed.

Due to aforementioned exhaustion, I am unable to properly send felicitations on the anniversary of the birth of three of the loveliest flistees in the world: [livejournal.com profile] marguerite_26 , [livejournal.com profile] acromantular  and [livejournal.com profile] phoenixacid .

Instead, I share with you a great truth. When people are being complete gibbons and common decency seems lost: I plaster a polite expression on my face and sing this song quietly inside my head. It has helped, every time, and I hope it will help each of you should you ever need it.


(On the rare occasions the lunacy cannot be overcome, I find flinging one's arms in the air and doing an Animal impersonation works admirably.)

Vale Joan Sutherland.

If you have never heard her sing, this YouTube recording is rubbish quality, but will give you just an inkling of a voice whose power and clarity were consistently amazing. (If you can get your hands on this recording as a CD, it's thoroughly worth the money.)
