Asakiyume mita - the transformation stump

About the transformation stump

Previous Entry the transformation stump May. 2nd, 2008 @ 08:00 pm Next Entry
There is a magical stump visible from my window. If you stand on it, you can transform yourself. Observe:













It has been a remarkable day. Remarkable. I got an e-mail from Appleseed Records. I don't believe I've ever purchased anything from Appleseed records, but the thing is, I intend to... so, what? Is the Internet reading my mind now? And I received an 18-minute piece of remarkable ghost music from [info]sovay that promises to haunt both waking and sleeping hours. Best of all, my favorite pirate folksinger may make a video singing "Wake Up" or "Drowsy Sleeper," thanks to prompting from a devoted fan.

It looks like the Walk for Hunger will be cold and rainy--20 miles of cold and rainy! This Sunday. You can console me with a donation, here.
I feel...: as if I'm floating
I hear...: David Sylvian and Holgar Czukay: Plight

You seem to live in a...high energy transformational zone.

I'm terrified for you.

Boy into squirrel. Crow into umbrella. Yipes.

I lack a means of finding out, unfortunately. I need a touchstone or something.

This made me shiver, because I have a feeling I could sing the song, almost. Almost.

With such powers of transmutation nearby, it might be worthwhile to leave several pounds of lead on the stump.

Proof! It *is* a magical stump. I wonder what would happen if I came and perched on it . . .

I agree with [info]desert_sparrow. See about leaving lead on the stump, just in case. Or, perhaps, straw.

Now straw I even have! I have a bag of it, right by the back door. I'll try tomorrow.

Being a squirrel is the best way to experience climbing trees--maybe it helps him remember, when he's in boy form, how to go about it.

thanks for the Walk for Hunger reminder....i donated a little inspiration for you and also hopefully for those to whom it will go to.

Thank you so much Bette; I really appreciate it, and so will the people who benefit from your generosity.

I'll definitely keep you posted about (a) transformations, (b) any purchases made from Appleseed records (or further communications from same), and (c) any new videos from the singer in question.

And I'll post about the walk, too, when we finish :-)

This post made me laugh so hard. Perhaps I wouldn't have laughed quite so hard if I wasn't grossly sleep-deprived, but all the same, it was very funny.

YAY RAIN

I got a couple extra rain ponchos and umbrellas laid by--that's the best anti-rain magic I know.

Glad you liked the transformations :-)

I set out straw, as [info]jmeadows suggested, but, looking out my window, I still see only straw.

He he he he he he! Which came first, the cat, the squirrel or RF?
How come you have so many magical things?! The umbrella, the stump! geeze!

YOU in all of your stalking MADE A MUSIC VIDEO happen?! Wow.

Sorry about the rainy cold 20 mile walk of cold and rainy! I would donate, but you'd have to donate the money back to us! ;)

Well, it hasn't happened yet--but he said it was a good idea. .... :D

Save your pennies for now; one day when you have made a fortune through your art, you can donate :-)

LOVED that. And maybe now RF will transmogrify (you didnt' get the word right, but that's the ONLY word for it!) into Calvin, then Hobbes...
Hope the weather improves for the Hungarian Walk!
