Today acquired the first bathing suit that I have owned and not disliked in many a year, just in time for July's holiday in Nova Scotia. (Good heavens, that's... really coming up now, isn't it? Need to collect a few more books. Mum got me a copy of Thomas Wharton's Salamander from PaperBackSwap, and it's coming soon; I am so happy. Salamander is one of those books that changed me, and the way I look at books and story, and when I consciously realised how much I love books as objects. It is also one of the strangest books I have ever read, and I wasn't even certain if I liked it at first, only I kept re-reading it and realising I was in love.) Anyway, it is polka-dotted and old-fashioned and not in the least dowdy or overly trendy. Also, new Converse high tops at long last! For fifteen dollars! And, er, undergarmenty things. Very pleasant to have. Also, chocolate. Must go back to it and my book immediately.
But actually, this is mostly to subtlely and casually say, oh look, there is stuff and you should look at it. Because firstly, I posted an Abigail Washburn & the Sparrow Quartet discography (complete with fabulous new live EP) over at![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
musicyardsale, and secondly, wrote deeply strange and probably vastly pretentious Dean Priest-centric Emily of New Moon fic which plays with time and alternate universes. A sort of riff on/deconstruction of the Five Things meme of fic writing, I suppose, especially as it originally started out as one and then turned into a different scenario altogether. (Potential subtitle: A Thousand Things That Never Happened To Dean Priest, Or, A Thousand Things That Did?) There's also a broody-piano-and-cello-music mix in there, which happened entirely by accident. In fact, I am still trying to remember how it happened. Er...
Mmmm, cosy bedspread is cosy. And Impressive. Also, as bedspreads go, it is extremely friendly towards computer mice. This is an important criterion for me, you know.
