The infrastructure will collapse from voltage spikes

I am heading to bed early, because I am heading to New York even earlier tomorrow morning. Wish me luck with trains, consciousness, and singing.

This afternoon in [personal profile] rydra_wong's comments, [personal profile] kore was attempting to describe the Lovecraftian decor of the Christmas White House: "Other highlights include a scary wreath made out of sharpened pencils that looks like you could take out people's eyes with it and an all-white representation of the White House in gingerbread that looks exactly like it's about to be drenched with blood."

Suddenly all I could hear was Richard Burton:

Don't let it be forgot
That once there was a spot
For one brief shining moment
That was known as Camazotz

Good luck with trains!

Also...wait, is this the Sir Richard Burton I'm thinking of? Why was he writing about a Mayan bat god? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camazotz

I feel like I am missing some fundamental context here. Or accidentally fell into a parallel universe.

Best of luck with all the things.

The words you thought of Burton singing made me laugh out loud and scare the cat. I assume he was bouncing a ball as he sang.
