I don't care to stay here long

[debs]

I am growing steadily more obsessed with sacred harp singing. A film about the style (Awake My Soul & Help Me To Sing) came out recently and I'm asking for it and the soundtrack for Christmas. This is probably the most "polished" version of this type of singing, but I've been listening to it on repeat for a couple of days now. I unabashedly love Cold Mountain and I think I wouldn't like the movie nearly as much if the soundtrack wasn't so amazing.

In unrelated news, it's possible that chlorate and I had a chance encounter with a zombie outside my house just now. o_O

I couldn't decide whether it was the "differently abled" man who lives up the street, or one of the other neighbors just stone drunk. *shakes head*

Haha. He looked really young (18ish?) and he was carrying something heavy (CPU?), so maybe the wheezing and groaning was just the result of Great Exertion. Still. It was very zombie-ish.
