Awesome! I love the new Decemberists album called The Crane Wife, and was reading just today that the title song(s!) are based on the story of the Crane Wife that the singer read in Japan years ago.

No I have their fifteen minute EP of The Tain coming in the post! :D

[leahbobet.livejournal.com]

Heh -- that song (Crane Wife 3) is actually what put the fairytale back into my head again. Which reminded me that I had a quibble with how the fairytale was generally interpreted.

And then, well, story. *g*

It's a pretty album!

Hooray for you! And I hope you get the pony *g*

[leahbobet.livejournal.com]

Heeeee, thanks!

(I do not know what I would do with the pony, really.)

[jmeadows.livejournal.com]

Woo hoo!

Oooh, ferret yays. :)

If you're working when I stop by Bakka in May, don't let me leave without a copy. ^_^ (But I just added it to my Amazon list to remind myself.)

Congrats!

[leahbobet.livejournal.com]

Hee, thank you. :)

If it is Friday afternoon, I shall be there!

[umadoshi.livejournal.com]

Ack, is that the only time you work? Current plan looks like arriving on one Friday evening and being out by the airport for AN on the other. :/

[leahbobet.livejournal.com]

Currently. :/ It is summer, so I might have extra hours in and around depending on what's up with events, people's schedules, etc.

I'll probably know closer to the date?

[umadoshi.livejournal.com]

Fair enough. I'd like to see you, even if we only manage it in passing. ^^ (We'll probably use LJ to detail our schedule while we're around, too.)

[leahbobet.livejournal.com]

Okay, sure thing. *g* I can always do coffee or something if bookstore falls through.

[hysteriachan.livejournal.com]

Sounds good. ^_^
