Kyrie eleison through the darkness of the night.

1. Spent most of Saturday at izhilzha's eating delicious foods, geeking out about various things, brainstorming, and talking about writing. We completely failed to see My Bloody Valentine 3D as planned because it was all sold out everywhere. Like wow. So instead we sat and gave each other plot bunnies. It was an excellent day. Always nice to re-confirm

1. My experience indicates that Izhi is in fact a real person. Either that or we both have very active imaginations.

1a) I really wish you all could have seen MBV. In the search for something resembling conversation on the topic, even if it's not actual conversation but rather reading reviews, my initial squee has been diminished, and I'm not sure I will regain the primary levels of squee when you see it. Though you and Izh might be able to restore my squee. So who knows.

3. "Kyrie" has always been one of my favorite songs, ever since it came out. You have heard it before the Compilation of Doom, yes? *hums*

4. I've finished the first half of TTW. Just read about the wedding. Sadly, Head Cold 2: The Sequel (Suffocation and Sleep Deprivation) have rendered me nigh on worthless and thus, beta notes on your fic will be . . . delayed. :(

[kalquessa]

Aw, do not let the squee be diminished! I will do my utmost to see it soon and bolster the squee. Perhaps my Beta of Squee tiara will help.

I think I'd heard "Kyrie" before since it sounded very vaguely familiar, but it had definitely been a long time (Greg's taste in 80s leans more toward the hard-rockin' guitar-heavy type, so that's mostly what I know of the era's music). I just love! This song! So much!

Poor you with the sicknesses! *pets you* Don't worry about beta notes, this fic's been cooking for so long, a little while longer ain't gonna hurt it. Get better, though! Be well! *tea*

[feliciakw]

We had snow flurries just a little bit ago. Perhaps the Beta of Squee watch cap would be more appropriate?

I could really use some of Dean's secret recipe chicken soup. Knock me out until I can breathe again. In the meantime, thank you for the tea. :-)

[kalquessa]

Dean's secret recipe soup always cracks me up. You might try a hot toddy, as many people claim that they work wonders, but...ew. Not tasty. They sound lovely, and all their component parts are nice by themselves, but all together it's just bleh.

*pulls down Beta of Squee balaclava*

Or, as I've heard the lyrics mistakenly sung (not by me for a change), "carry a laser..."

[kalquessa]

*falls out of chair laughing*

Best. Mangled lyric. EVAR!

[kalquessa]

Yeah, I can like King, and can even mainline him if I'm in the right mood (I read the Dark Tower series mostly in two- or three-book chunks) but I haven't read him in a long while so I'm out of practice dealing with his singular approach to writing. I do think I'll enjoy this, though, it's one of Izh's favorites, and we frequently have similar tastes in books.

[izhilzha]

Ha, you and me are the same on reading King. About one book per year. (Dead Zone is actually the exception; I think I read it three times the year I discovered it. I had a massive, massive crush on Johnny Smith.)

[blackhanddpants]

Kyrie is indeed marvelous music for the ages :-)

Stephen King I'm not so sure about.

[kalquessa]

I just want to fling my arms wide and sing the chorus at the top of my lungs!

[ladybrick]

Izh is indeed real? And The Dead Zone is better sickbed reading than The Stand.

[kalquessa]

Izh continues to be real. Which is good, because otherwise I'd feel silly driving all that way to visit the cafe with the portobello melt sandwiches her.

[ladybrick]

Mmmmmm... melty sandwiches.

Who's Izh?
