This bookshelf made from hardback books has me cracking up so hard. And once you see the photo, you'll realize the pun I just made.

Speaking of puns, I found One Of The Worst Puns Ever the other day. It requires a bit of setup first.

Person A: I saw a tern in my backyard yesterday! I wonder what'll show up next?
Person B: An otter.
A: Why?
B: Because one good tern deserves an otter.

*ducks the flying pots and pans*

Completely unrelated to any of the above, I found out the other day that the choir I'm in is going to be doing Rachmaninoff's All-Night Vigil (Vespers) starting February.

*squees*

I wasn't sure about coming back for another round, but, um, I think I might have to. Because it's THE ALL-NIGHT VIGIL, OMG. *babbles incoherently*

Oh yeah, you're sticking around for the spring. Are they doing it in English or Slavonic? (I hope the latter!) I did the first half of the Vigil the year I sang with the PU choir, and then at the same time, was in a group that only did Russian choral music, and I gotta say, it was consistently some of the most utterly gorgeous stuff I have ever had the privilege to sing. Hearing it and singing it are in no way the same, and you just simply HAVE to do it.

(Just, you know...in case you hadn't made up your mind yet!)

I think we'd do it in Slavonic, because we're currently doing all-Latin-all-the-time, but I don't really know.

Hee. :D

I hope so. It would be SO wrong in English!

:O

Wow. Especially cool if your basses know what they're doing!

[icepixie]

Well, we have one bass who sings louder than anyone in the choir, and he knows what he's doing. Surely that counts for something.

Having been That Alto, I really hope it counts. ^_^
