I just made a phone post, inspired in part by [livejournal.com profile] msktrnanny's sorrow at not having the chance to hear popslash read in a British accent (not that I have an accent, but...), and partly by Hilaire Belloc's "The Story of Matilda, who Told Lies, and was Burned To Death", which you may read here, if you are not familiar with it.

I have not listened to my phone post. I am not going to listen to my phone post, since it is Me Reading Poetry, and therefore even more disconcerting than hearing my normal voice. But it exists...


ETA: Hmph, it looks as though making a phone post does Odd Things - I can get to the phone post from my Recent Entries, but if I go back an entry from this one, it skips the phone post. Or, going forward from the phone post skips this entry. Peculiar.

Happy Birthday, Christina Elaine, wherever you are.

Minor mishap in the car this morning - Boy and I were on the way to his doctor's appointment, and the car began to shudder. In a state of some dismay, I pulled off the motorway and into the car park of the nearby hypermarket, and phoned for help. Somewhat after that, discovered that the back nearside tyre was in a pancake-like state. :-( Still, help was already on the way and I really didn't feel like wrestling with the wheel, so we waited for the Man In The Van to arrive, and watched with interest while he changed the wheel. Sigh.

There's always something.

I shall have to go through and see who did what, and if there's any possibility that I ought to have been able to identify them...

My Remix story was Reindeer Games (the Like a Lightbulb remix), based on [livejournal.com profile] jae_w's original. Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] chrismm for the beta work.

I was surprised, with this challenge, to find how much harder it was than I'd expected it to be. I've read plenty of remixes, after all... It was difficult to figure out where to put the story, on the spectrum of "oh, yes, I read this story... didn't I?" to "I wonder what the original story is like". I stuck pretty close to the original, really, but it is very interesting to read the wide range of choices the other authors have made.

When you're reading, or writing, a remix, what do you prefer? How different from the original do you like it to be?

My sister has been staying here for a couple of days, as she had a training session in Stanstead yesterday. We had a chance to chat on Thursday when she got here - I was industriously painting my commissioned window (this went very nicely until the large area of purple paint began to thin in random spots - my attempt to disguise the situation by making it look purposefully textured did not help, so I'm going to have to strip that colour off) and we had a nice natter about brats and Sudoku.

She came to the Orpheus rehearsal with me. I'd expected she'd get to see a couple of acts (she won't be travelling up from Devon to see the show, so it would have been nice for her), but instead we spent the first ninety minutes on the walk-down, then did the finales of acts one, three and then two. No wonder she found it all rather confusing. It's just under a fortnight until we open, and frankly, I think we're over-rehearsed and could do with a night off.

Last night, we had a Quiz down at the playhouse. Quizzes are fun, even though I was on a team which knew we would have no chance of winning. This was certainly true - our average score per round: 4/10. Though we scored a magnificent 10/10 on our Joker round, which we correctly guessed was history. But overall, too much 'pop culture' for us! Never mind, 'twas fun. Only down side was that sister got home from her conference at 7.20pm, just as we were leaving the house.

She was up at 7 this morning (eek) so I staggered out of bed and prised my eyelids open to see her while she had breakfast. And she's gone, so I am posting.
