Jul. 4th, 2010 04:23 pmHappy Fourth of July! (To all the Americans on my rcircle/flist; to everyone else, happy July fourth, random Sunday!)
It is so windy here that the top of the chimney actually blew off, which I didn't see despite the fact that the chimney is right outside my window, but I heard it. So, the traditional barbecue is obviously off. So is the traditional viewing of Independence Day (because what's more American than defeating aliens?), because as last night's experiments proved, it is impossible to watch VHS on the new TV without getting a headache, and we don't own Independence Day on DVD, which we clearly must get on. I am fairly depressed about this, because it is traditional. (Uh, for my family, anyway.)
I am torn between working on Dust 21 (and trying to decide if I can actually keep the POV I have it in currently, or if I need to switch it, which I don't want to do, but I have to figure out if the chapter will work best in the Edmund POV or if I should go to Lucy or Eustace. I would go to Eustace -- suddenly, and I have no idea how, he became a Preferred POV -- but I don't like reusing the same POV so soon afterwards) and knitting. Sadly, I cannot do both at once.
In vaguely related news, I have had Long Long Journey (lyrics) stuck in my head for the past few days; I have also worked out that it is the last song on the Dust part one soundtrack. Now if only I knew the rest of the soundtrack.
