( Cut to tl;dr about thoughts on physical/intellectual disability, music, and my career. )

Oh lawd...I get these sudden, horrible moments when I'm listening to music in my playlist and suddenly I think,

"Oh.

That's where I got that idea from."

Then realise it's almost exactly the same.

...

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh FUCK.

...Maybe I should have Bartók and Ligeti icons too.
I think there's Shos in this. Someone said Stravinsky, but I dunno. There's definitely a Ligeti moment.

"She Removes The Cloak Of Even Temperament".

(Wow, I somewhat fail upon attempting to orientate myself around last.fm.)

There is a reason for this. I just had a piece...

...'commissioned'...

...By my big sister for an advert she's doing at work.
(Did I say 'big sister'? I meant older sister...it's her fault for still treating me like an 8-year-old! Really! In turn she gets called 'Gilly-Peg'.)
