good stuff
Well, I've arrived back from a trip out of state. It was nice to get away for a while but I spent the week feeling sort of icky and sick. I toughed it out with tea, cough drops, and vitamins, but once I got back the ick got really bad. It took me a couple weeks to get sick so it'll probably take me a couple weeks to get better. That's just kinda how this body works.
While I was out of town I picked up a few goodies for myself. I purchased The Fantod Pack, a 20 card divination deck that Edward Gorey created back in the 90's that's been reissued. I got a few records, too! I've avoided gettting too much back into record collecting; it doesn't have to be a terribly expensive hobby, but it takes time and since I don't have a record player I haven't made it a priority activity. Still, the siren lure of vinyl can only be silenced for so long.
I got a couple recordings of Hair, my favorite musical. One is apparently an easy listening version performed by "Lady Sappho and the Satyricons". The music might be horrible, but it's Hair and it's sung by the Satyricons. For $2 it's an investment risk I'm willing to take.
I also got a 2008 release of some recordings Aleister Crowley made between 1910 and 1914. It's pressed on purple vinyl, apparently a limited version of the release. I'm very excited to hear this. I'm not all that into Crowley's work, but hey - it's Crowley reciting his own work. Recordings nearly 100 years old are now mine to listen to on purple vinyl. Awesome, really really awesome. For this awesomeness, I spent about twice what I did on the two Hair records.
So today it's back to homework, in between bouts of being sick. Blah.
