But, when they should transform to newts, are naughty and erratic
Yesterday I felt optimistic enough about this cold to go out and meet
ratatosk for lunch at Dave's Fresh Pasta and then hang out until the evening, trying not to cough on anyone too badly and mostly succeeding. (He has two books of Walter Garstang. I got to watch a puppet feed a cat. It was great.) Today I am back to drinking soup and sounding like a TB ward. Rabbit, rabbit. Other less festive noises. Links.
1. I didn't know anyone had written a revamp of Five Children and It. Can someone who isn't me read this first and tell me what on earth it's like?
2. I have tickets next week for Peter Maxwell Davies' The Lighthouse at the Boston Lyric Opera. I've never heard the opera, but it's based on the mystery of the Flannan Isles light (and I got a discount for being an ex-Opera Boston subscriber). I am looking forward.
3. I hope people do come to refer to this work, academically, as the Whoopensocker Dictionary.
4.
cucumberseed: Cookiethulhu.
5. This documentary really sounds like porn for me.

Thanks. It's weird; I seem to be getting about one functional interactive period a day and it's not even consistently timed. I really hope at least it settles on being a morning or an evening thing before this cold is through!
Therefore, if you are well by then and would care for a somewhat quirky change of scenery, would you like to meet up in Salem either on Tuesday or Wednesday afternoon?
. . . I couldn't do Tuesday, but Wednesday is really tempting. Could I let you know early next week? I like Salem: I have a membership to the Peabody Essex Museum.
