Birdies!

Eeeee! I have cardinals at my window! Well, I did for a while, before they flew off. But they were there! I thought my window ledge might be too narrow for anything as big as a cardinal, since it's only about 2.5 inches wide, but apparently not. There was a male and a female; maybe they're moving in to have a nest somewhere nearby. I've also seen two downy woodpeckers and a hairy woodpecker (great names, huh?) out and about, although rarely close enough to take a good picture. Which, yes, implies that I have taken pictures, and I will post them soon. If you consider "next weekend" soon, anyway...

Apropos of nothing, quotes from Doc that have been building up for a while:

- "That's just a plate laid out with carrots, a steak, and maybe a side of mashed potatoes. You're the parsley, tenors. Every plate needs some parsley."
- "Well, that started out Tabasco and ended up ketchup."
- "Except for a few pitches, rhythms, and dynamics, that was perfect."

Speaking of choir, I've...acquired a recording of the Lauridsen requiem we're doing. Soooo pretty. Unlike our scary sight-singing rendition of it last night, which sounded remarkably like a number of those strange tuned windchimes all going at once--it wasn't so much bad as very eerie. Kind of like we were channeling Schonberg. Hee.

Now, back to nomadic empire formation... *cracks whip over self*
