quick notes
Oct. 11th, 2009 02:12 amCold feeling a bit better.
Collected e-ticket. Whee! Need to sort out dollars too at some point.
Had almost forgotten that clocks go back in a couple of weeks. Bah.

The Diatonic Dittymunch
The Diatonic Dittymunch plucked music from the air,
He swallowed scores of symphonies and still had space to spare.
Sonatas and cantatas slithered sweetly down his throat;
He made ballads into salads and consumed them note by note.
He ate marches and mazurkas, he ate rhapsodies and reels,
Minuets and tarantellas were the staples of his meals.
But the Diatonic Dittymunch outdid himself one day:
He ate a three-act opera --
And LOUDLY passed away.
