Skirts, a Theramin, Depache Mode and cookies....

Very early in the morning here, just sneaking down while breakfast cooks to take care of e-mail and say hello to all of you, then , of course, it's back to the studio.

Things are going very well indeed. The album seems to know what it needs and many times I think it could make it's ownself without us even being a part of it. Flowing like water the thing is, magic, pure magic. Very tired magic. Hard schedule every day all day. CD's have gone to Boston, so that Chris Ewen can record the bagpipes we are needing and send them on back. John Sjogren from the Tim Malloys came in yesterday and did a Shaker part and some guitar work AND a bit of voice over work where we needed to sound insane. Malena is doing some amazing vocals, she can SING! ( I know I have said that before, once or twice, but my opinion of her work is constantly growing higher, if that is possible )

She is a good person to be with in the studio, too, where the hours are long, the work intense and tempers can become short . Not this time. If anything we are going to kill ourselves with our wit, fall over dead laughing we will.

Also, wonderful news, we have aquired a Theramin player! Are the fates watching out for this cd or what??????? ( not to mention a girl who plays a SHOVEL, and a completely barking mad Scotsman )

What else did I want to talk about, here in my sleepy couple of moments? Hmmm...I did want to tell our friend John Scalzi not to worry to much about the REO Speedwagon as one of Malena's fav bands from her youth turns out to be Depache Mode and she is already going thru cd's to find the perfect cover, just for you.

The Thingies, from my boss's page have been VERY good to us this week. I owe Miss Mousie a long letter of thanks, the two most perfectly WONDERFUL skirts showed up here at the house, long, all draped in rags and colours, hard to describe but certainly two of the most beautiful skirts I have ever SEEN! We danced around the house for an hour in them when we came back from LA and found them waiting! We will be posting pictures as soon as we can get them , and wearing them in concert as sooon as we can. With corsets.

And yesterday we stoped at Dreamhaven Books on a break and in edition to picking up Adam Stemple's new book with Jane Yolen, PAY THE PIPER, there was a package from someone named Miss Tree , another Thingie , FILLED with boxes of Tim Tam cookies from Austraila. Miss Tree, I forget what it is you wanted, but the answer is YES , whatever it is. The studio NEEDED boxes of cookies....We may thank them on the album.

Off to wake Malena and them make some music.

Love and sleepy,
Lorraine

Awwww, I love Miss Mousie and Lady Miss Tree. I heard the rat-wrangler was making skirts and I can't wait to see them!

It is my pleasure entirely, oh Fabulous one.

I believe you have already intimated to the lovely Miss Mousie the answer to my question (a certain author chappie's availability outside of Continuum), so you are clearly psychic and the cookies are merely a gift in honour of that.

Enjoy!
