...listen to some music', is the end of the original. Which is the title of a CD burned for me for Christmas by Older Daughter. And you know what? It *has* been a very long year - I'd say I was glad to see the back of 2007 except that I saw it in quite cheerfully. That'll learn me!
Anyway, I'm mulling over my Year's Books List, which I'll post tomorrow or the next day ::crosses fingers::, but now, as it's still Christmas, dammit (yeah it is - until Epiphany!), I'm going to give the promised, if a little belated, medical update. You can skip the cut if you don't enjoy chronic headaches... Unless you don't but would still like to hear about the fun fun fun of a brain MRI.
Anyway, Christmas was not our most relaxed or cheerful, but the kitchen crew (me as head chef, my sister, virtual adopted brother and both girls) had a perfectly amicable day of cooking, the meal was good, and presents appreciated. I got Philip Reeve's Starcross from Y.D., which I'm readlng and enjoying now, and a Dedicate a Tree kit from O.D. (she said it could be dedicated to a fictional character - suggesting that naming one for Dido Twite would be very cool), to focus on the child lit element.
More on books in the New Year! [does witchey dance for luck]
