An on-line friend from Goteburg sent me two samples of a Swedish instrument called a nyckelharpa. It's got a great sound--like a cross among a zither, a fiddle, a dulcimer and something indefinable. I'm using it to mine samples to slice, but I admire the samples as they stand now, unadorned.

Today marked another very busy day. I am tired.

The newspaper advised that this January is the most rainy since 1898. We do extremes well where I live. Other places are warmer, other places are colder, but we have compelling contrasts.

I like a meme that is going around the internet these days. I'm impressed, too, with the aplomb people bring to this meme.
Thus, I'm going to incorporate that meme into this post, and issue you an invitation:

I'd be delighted to write you a short paragraph about how cool you are, and what I like about you and your journal. There are but three rules:

a. you may not write back to deny any compliments paid;
b. you need not duplicate my feat in your journal;
c. you shall not turn inot a winged monkey.

I reserve the right to:

a. write a long paragraph, or more than one
b. wax effusively
c. go off on tangents
d. give unexpected praise

As you know, I like to start these things with a silly word in reply.

If you are interested, could you reply--

"All about me"

All about me.

But turning into a winged monkey sounds kind of fun! *pout*

All About Me

(There was a cool Dr. Seuss book by that title - one of those seventies do-it-yourself things.)

"All about me"

I love the way you write, which is probably also behind your caveat about waxing effusively :) I do wonder how much you feel you know about me. We live so close, yet know each other only through LJ.

What a temptation ...

... we don't often get an opportunity to so boldly be "all about me". Thanks for the offer.

I rarely post now, but if you remember me at all, have at it.

I'd like to reserve the right to turn into a flying monkey.

"All about me."



And relating to your penchant for silly words, try this one: "Schtum." It has a variety of nonsense meanings. :)

Ok, I'm game for what you have to say. :) Feel free to write "all about me".
