  1. I avoid crowds and do my shopping about 2 am. It helps that the staff of the local 24 hour place know me and when they see me coming they open up a normal till - it saves a lot of hassle and verbal unpleasantness.
  2. The funny thing about the clarinet was that my friend told me that if I wasn't used to playing it I probably wouldn't get a note out of it. At the time I was playing the recorder a lot and was fairly good so I thought I could - obviously. I asked what key it was in, picked it up, messed around with the fingering a bit... and then played a note-perfect scale. Still sounded a bit like a strangled cat though. I always wanted to play tenor Sax as it's in C.
  3. I wouldn't mind having a place for recs either. I'm not doing too bad remembering to mem things on LJ or bookmark them on AO3 but it would be nice to share them with other people. Maybe there should be a section within the adult forum forum for reccing the more mature rated fics too. A lot of plotty stuff still has an adult rating.
  4. Eclectic is the word - Sisters of Mercy, BeeGees, Led Zep *and* Lady Gaga? You beat my eclecticness into the ground (hate Lady Gaga's music with a vengeance and really not keen on the Zeps either or opera). I do own stuff by Kate Bush, Clannad, Marillion, Queen, Blue Gillespie and the Sisters though, they just aren't in my most listened to list.
  5. I can get a noise out of just about anything I pick up - my dad's cornet, sister's crumhorn, clarinet, accordian, pan pipes, ocarina, ukelele. the only thing that has ever defeated me is the flute, but I was drunk at the time. Getting a noise that doesn't sound like something is being murdered out of an unfamiliar instrument is another thing entirely.
  6. I found dougnuts... the cake is infamous because everyone has heard about it but few people have seen (or tasted it). It's also usually alcoholic cake.
