Between @throwingmuses’ Winter session and @teenbeat463’s holiday audio collection, today’s been a lovely day for music surprises.
This afternoon: wake for dear friend took unexpected + bittersweet detour into opera. He would’ve boomed his approval: “Fantastic!”
Man, it’s sloooow though. Any way to make this less that a three step process? (Rip, compress, convert to MP4.)
Lovely dinner last night @cookandbrown with friends visiting unexpectedly from the UK.
Just now found out that Jaimy Gordon has rec’d the Nat’l Bk Award for fiction. If you can find it, “She Drove w/o Stopping” is phenomenal.
‘Tis the season of conflicting holiday parties!
RT @AnnaHolmes I love that there’s an auction of Edward Gorey’s vintage furs + that the proceeds will benefit animals. http://bit.ly/gYqVZx
Taking a look at the Gorey auction. Hand-sewn Figbash going for $600! Wonder what mine’s worth? (Not that I’d sell it.)
Marvelous. RT @abysswit RT @NancySinatra Here is a brief [pictorial] history of Nancy + Lee. I really miss him. http://tinyurl.com/29n4cgh
Ailing kitty Lulu clearly on the mend: she’s now following me around the apt, purring like a small outboard motor.

Super-sick kitty back from 2nd trip to vet. Fingers crossed, she’s on the mend. Now, if I can just get her to eat something…

Sick kitty is home from vet. Not looking very spry, though. Poor bunny.
