eredienI am done with work. This is good.
I spent yesterday out in Philadelphia with Rush-That-Speaks, zelas8x8, and SyonaKeleste.
Other than the driving heading back--there was a moment when a phalanx of drivers, all of whom were trying to head in opposite directions, blocked my path such that to move I would have had to find a fourth dimension of space-time--the evening was lovely. And, come to think of it, so was the evening before that.
I have had two "world cuisines" in two days, one of which--West African--I had never had before. I have wandered around Philadelphia, and plan on wandering further later today and tomorrow.
We watched Van Helsing at the theater. It was marvelous, and everything a monster movie should be. Didn't take itself seriously, which was lovely. Any movie that has mad scientists screaming "It's ALIIIVE!", a masque, and a classic torch-wielding mob is fine with me. Go see it. Especially Gerbilhouse people.
Note: There is also going to be a TV series.
These are not necessarily my favorite songs, although some of my favories are in here. Took off anything instrumental or in Russian or Japanese. Answers posted in a few days.
Let me be the only one/to keep you from the cold
There's a smile when the pain comes/the pain gonna make everything alright
And then you miss me awhile/you were looking for yourself out there
And my clothes don't fit me no more/a thousand miles just to slip this skin
And her eyes shine like the moon on the sea/she comes in incense and patchouli
And the sons of engineers/ride their father's magic carpets made of steel
The waters dark and deep/inside this ancient heart
God help us all if we're to blame for their unanswered prayers/they roll the sidewalks up at night this place goes underground
It's a cold room/and the walls ask where you've gone
With fingernails that shine like justice/and a voice that is dark like tinted glass
A thousand dreams I still believe/I'd make you give them all to me
Time passes much too quickly/when we're together laughing
I wrap my fear around me like a blanket/I sailed my ship of safety 'till I sank it
And as she turns/this way she moves in the logic of all my dreams
And in the streets the children screamed/the lovers cried and the poets dreamed
No one suspected/he was packing an uzi
Find a way to lie/'bout a home I'll never see
How long 'till my soul gets it right/can any human being ever reach the highest light
And MacHeath spends like a sailor/did our boy do something rash?
This shattered dream you cannot justify/We're gonna scream until we're satisified
