reasons not to post at one in the morning

ontologyI had two intelligent posts compsed in my head (I won't tell you what they are about lest I jinx them and never actually write them up, which is what always seems to happen when I say that I am going to post something) but my mind is taking its habitual leave of absence (really, haven't been feeling very right in the head for a while), so there is nothing especially scintillating forthcoming. Wallace & Gromit is a nice diversion, though; the siblings and I had a marathon of all three short films and Curse of the Were-Rabbit tonight. With popcorn.
(And, um. Are you lot sure you haven't got any really angry songs about what ghastly trouble the ocean is? No-one? *droop* Because, yeah. I'm trying to sort out the tracks I've got for the Mariner's Wife mix, and it's not--it's got holes, you know. I'm sort of shocked that I've managed to get nine tracks at all, though.lady_moriel's suggestion of Emiliana Torrini's 'Sea People' was a good one, except it's a really difficult song to fit in naturally. It feels as though it ought to begin or end something, but it can't, thematically. Agh. Still looking for my drowning song, too. Charlotte Martin's 'The Flood' is v. lovely, but it's--not quite angry enough; it makes a nice sad reflective end to the whole thing, but not a climax. ...Egad, I'm going on and on about my odd little projects again and not doing anything productive. Aaagh. *goes to bed*)
Also, PBS, will you please stop playing weird stuff like Elvis concerts instead of Monty Python? *woe* I miss it terribly. I mean, really. Elvis concerts. It's St. Patrick's Day; can't you at least get, I don't know, that Van Morrison concert from last December or something? Or, I don't know, LOREENA MCKENNITT? If WGBH were here...! The large important cities have got it so much better in public television. *is totally not digging out a Mary Black album for an absurdly late Irish music mix, NEVERRR*
Yeah, I know. Go to bed.
