quesarahTake one part stress, mix with equal measure massive deadline, sprinkle liberally with caffeine and top with lots of Frank Zappa playing in the laboratory. A strange, surreal mental state is guaranteed to occur, thus eliminating the need for recreational pharmaceuticals. Except the recreational pharmaceuticals are more fun. Not that I'd know...
I have a need to purchase some college-style a capella music compilations. There are several pieces I know that would be great fun to sing that way. Unfortunately, it's been a zillion years since I've done any arranging. I need something to kickstart me. I could probably do horn arranging no problem, that's always been easier (different key signatures aside). However, as I have zero musical outlet for horn arranging I really need to focus on vocal arranging. Ah well. I foresee a trip to Border's this weekend. Anyone wanna come with?
For about the last week, I've been repressing the desire to say "Crikey!" I don't know why I want to say it, I just do. I'll save up and burst out with it right in front of![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
wafflelips. I'm sure she'll be terribly amused.
Did I ever mention our friend Colin? Odd man, but that's beside the point. He's an Aussie which may or may not be related to his oddness, but I digress. During the course of a conversation he asked me a question. I paused, and started my answer "Well, I reckon..." He was convinced I was making fun of him. I had to explain to him that my family was from the rural south, and that phrase was very much a part of our vocabulary. Eventually I convinced him. Then I said "Besides, I said Ah recken, not Oi rikkin. Big difference." I think he hit me. Can't recall.
Time to go. Lunch with Frenchie.

Hey hey hey now! Two Sarahs would not be frightening. It would be sweetness and light and fuzzy baby puppies for everyone. Not frightening at all!
