Note to self:

You do not want to write a story about estranged families who work in morgues and call it "Carrion Wayward Son."

You know all those iPod icons that have the shadow person on the colored background and say clever things like "iSlytherin" and whatnot?

I think it would be funny if someone did an icon and the shadow person was maybe holding a sword or something and it was captioned "iClaudius."

Or maybe one exists and I've just never seen it.

I probably wouldn't use it, as I've never seen the movie, but that is what happens to my brain the morning after I have weird dreams. Yeah.

The first thing: I wrote a couple of drabbles for queerditch_pub yesterday:

( Harry/Snape, the legend on a map, rated R )

( Harry/Rufus Scrimgeour, dealing with the cleansing of the Aegean stables, because it was just irresistible and if I do say so myself this is probably the second-best drabble I've ever written. Rated PG for a swear word )

The second thing: Not long ago, I was in the car with Mr. Cedar and Solsbury Hill came on the radio. I've always found Peter Gabriel pretty boring, but this is one of about three songs of his I like, so I kept the radio on. And near the end of the song, I said to Mr. Cedar, "Am I the only one who thinks this song tells the story of the Passion from Jesus' point of view, only more obliquely?"

"You know," he replied, "I never thought of it that way, but I don't disagree with you."

Just a thought.

(Of course, if that is what Peter Gabriel had intended all along, I am either better at interpreting text than I thought I was or I'm 30 years late to the party.)
