Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The original Matilda's none too joyous either.

Other sad songs of mine--well, Prince can certainly sing up a good cry: Sometimes It Snows in April and others from Parade (Under The Cherry Moon, frex) qualify. Then there's 80s British Apoca-pop (Life In A Northern Town, Enola Gay--even when they weren't about the end of the world nuclear style, they still had similar melancholy).

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

The original Matilda is the one about the Jolly Swagman down beside the Billabong.

Yup. I listened to And The Band Played Waltzing Matilda on the bus back from Gallipoli. It's a phenomenal song.

Of course, the original Waltzing Matilda is about a sheep thief who'd rather drown himself than be taken into custody, so it's not exactly a mood lifter either.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Great. I'm on my second nosebleed of as many days. Wide awake now. Guess I'll be getting that laundry done now. If I ever stop bleeding, that is.

Trust my rage

Thanks, Nilly! You made my day. I posted links to pictures of Ellie over in Bitches. There are cuter ones, but this is my favorite birthday picture from her party on Saturday [link]

And Happy Birthday, Dana, since, you know, it's not all about us!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Happy Birthday to Ellie and Dana!
