Mildly disturbing (cont. tales of)

So my sister worked out the Tori-style piano version of "The Childcatcher" that comes as a bonus track on The Magic Position CD.

Her: I can play this at Law Rocks! It has that line about "our law-given hand", see. Also it'd be worth it just to see the Dean's face.
Me: Are you serious?
Her: No.

So far she's cobbled together cover versions of: "Magpie", "Souvenirs", "Pigeon Song", and "The Magic Position" (three-handed, and even more hilariously retarded Ultimo Pop when you strip it down to basic components; "Variations on the Theme of 'Heart and Soul'" pretty much). Basically she plays and I sing because she can't be arsed to sing, or indeed transpose. XD; Before this was "Dinner at Eight", which is actually fairly tricky, and today was "Famous Blue Raincoat".

Sometimes it seems to me like I spend a lot of time doing stuff like this (a couple of hours today) except I never post about it or indeed conceptualize it, in some sense.

In other news I argued my Accounting midterm mark up to a 74%, and got 10/10 on the infamous assignment which caused brief excitement until I realized everyone in the class got 10/10. The presentation went okay, I have another one to prepare for tomorrow. Plus three group projects/assignments more or less due this week. Plus a personal term paper and exams next week. =_= Last.FM sent my sister (not me, who knows why) notice that Final Fantasy was opening for Bell Orchestre in Montreal on the 14th, which I think is untrue as it runs counter to all information otherwise available on the internets, but even if it were true I wouldn't be able to attend as I have *drumroll* my Accounting final that evening. Were it possible it would be a bad idea as I would, like, heckle Owen Pallett by yelling "SPOONY BARD!" at him. Write a song with "chickatrice" in the title, that's what you get.

I am going to Stars, though. On... Erin, is it November 30th or December 1st? XD;; I thought it was going to be with Miracle Fortress but it seems to be Pony Up! opening. Either way is good. Can-con, why are you so awesome.

...Darn it, I need to get back to writing. orz

It's December 1st; it's a Saturday.

I have the Miracle Fortress CD, if you want me to pass it to you.

Yep! You can get your ticket at Admission, there are still some available.

Cool, thanks for the heads-up. Really like the Stars. Going to get tickets...

Ah, sorry, I should've thought to let you know - I was so distracted, Erin essentially talked me into it over Facebook. XD;
