I'm trying to order Christmas presents today, but my stupid bank hasn't cleared my deposit yet, so I'm stuck. I have all these windows open, ready to hit the order button, but I can't. Grrrrrrr...

So, instead, I'm working on gathering addresses for the Christmas letter/card list. That's fun.

Cash, it's so good to "see" you. Glad to hear you and your little bean are both doing well. I bet Plei has some good suggestions for bedrest boredom!

God bless 'em. This is a picture from the annual Brown/Radcliffe Women's Rugby Prom Dress Game.

One thing I need to send you, Cash, is the Serenity comic #3.

Just found it sitting on the kitchen table.

And we're cleaning the kitchen table because we just went from No Guests for xmas eve dinner to 5 guests for xmas eve dinner. I'm not sure how that's gonna work

the annual Brown/Radcliffe Women's Rugby Prom Dress Game.

It makes me very happy just to know such a thing exists. The pushup picture is priceless.

I've posted my Wintergrace mix at Buffistarawk. This is my prettiest mix of traditional bluegrass vocals. Track list here: DavidS "Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach" Dec 18, 2005 10:24:10 am PST

Something for everybody!

For Jilli - "In the Bleak Midwinter"
For Askye - just about all of it as this is stuff you like
For Cindy - lots of beautiful devotional songs

Holy shit, we're getting apocalyptic thunder and lightning here. It's like bombs dropping in my neighborhood.

So that's what that is.

Yay, Hec! I was wondering if you'd have a winter/holidays mix.

At odd times I'm also tempted to challenge you. Like, a mix in which every song features a mandolin. Or the word purple. Or something.

Off to download...

Mandolin wouldn't be too hard. iTunes says I've only got 12 purple songs though: "Purple Rain," "Purple People Eater," "Purple Avenue" (two covers of this Tom Waits song one by Holly Cole and one by Ute Lemperer).
