Song lyrics!
KMFDM
Glück ist nicht käuflich sehnsucht bleibt unerreicht (too complicated for me...)

Lola Rennt
Wir sprengten jeden Rahmen
Ich weiss du rennst...
Ich hab' dich vermisst
Ich brauche dich doch auch nicht mehr als du mich.

Rammstein
Du hast mich gefragt, und ich hab nichts gesagt
Ich werf' ein licht...
Geadelt ist wer schmerzen kennt...

(This works better when you actually see me poking at the meanings of the songs, but I'm too lazy to copy the translations.)

13. What's your favorite culture to write, fictional or not?

I think... surprisingly, I think back-country mountain culture, in a way. Specifically around-this-area mountain culture. Mostly because I love it, the song, the storytelling, the crafts, the dogged stubbornness, the general calm, the appreciation of beauty, the... slightly left of center-ness. The storytelling. The mysticism, whether of the christian or pagan variety, the close community thing, small town atmosphere, and did I mentioned the storytelling?

Failing that, fantastic cultures I make up are always kind of awesome. This is what happens when you're an anthropology geek.

Oogh. Did get a bunch of writing done today. Did not... something. I had a brain, but it went away. Did not get any sewing done. Did get the last of my shopping for costume pieces done, and got some triangle sponges for my arm makeup and some other stuff. I guess in the end of it all, getting my languages and routines and writing done is still a win, considering it was a Monday. Tomorrow, shipping, writing, and carding the damn wool that's been sitting in the classroom for ages so I can use it to practice drop-spindling. Because, seriously, yo. That needs to happen a lot.
