I was watching this movie in my dreams last night, and at one point they were making some kind of important point about the heartland (that's the big bit in the middle that I sit at the northern tip of). The way they were doing it was by following the telephone lines super-fast with a camera, as if you were running along one, and occasionally the lines would pass through a city and you'd get a snatch of a couple of radio stations.

When they hit Chicago it zoomed past, but there was just a tiny clip of a song. It was very Andrews Sisters, a bit forties-ish; the only line I caught was "Hey there Chicago / It's still twenty-one stops" and there should be another three syllables on that second line, I think, if the music was anything to go by. I thought, that must be a real song, it sounds so vintagey and catchy and it's about Chicago!

Alas, I do not think it is. Still, I'm enjoying playing some Andrews Sisters this morning.

Going to look at apartments today. I'm still not sure how all this is going to work; I don't have the money to move, but Mama Tickey supposedly has some in trust for me if I can delicately weasel it out of her. I'm pretty sure I can convince her once I mention the wasps and mice, but you never know about these things.

I like to think that I am open to change, and I am, but as much as I accept it I really don't cope well with it. I don't want to look at new apartments :(

On the other hand, this new recipe for pumpkin butter is AWESOME.

I have to admit part of the reason I made the pumpkin butter was that I had other needs for both pumpkin and apple cider :D
