Let's pretend it's yesterday...

...because I was sidetracked with reinventing mermaids.

It's yesterday's news, at least.

There was a spider in my bathtub this morning. This one was trifling and little, but it was imprisoned on a bench between a glass and a piece of paper. My priorities are clearly defined, in this instance - spider leaves bathtub, but having bath (complete with vanilla bubble bath, yay!) comes before throwing spider outside.

Maybe that'll make it think twice. Not particularly likely, since they expect for it to be rainy here for a few days yet. Grr.

*resolves to keep broom close*

My other big item of news is that I've officially decided pinball is electronic crack on skinny steel legs. Today, I was again playing the Lord of the Rings pinball machine, and had the oddest thought from some of the samples they use - specifically:

Legolas: "You have my bow!"
Gimli: "You have my axe!"

And what does this make me imagine? The nine of them, forming a band possibly called The Fellowship of the Rock.

So, we have Gimli on a guitar, and Legolas with a violin. This leaves seven more... and I open the floor for discussion on Middle-Earth's newest band. Let's not worry about anachronism too much, here.

D'oh! I actually meant to link to the Wikipedia article, but I forgot. >< Theremins are the coolest instrument ever, and I want to learn to play one. Unfortunatley, you can't major in theremin performance at this particular university. *sigh*

They do look to be interesting.

Why won't they let you major in theremin? You could even make your own to do it with.
