kiki_engOkay, so, JUST IN CASE ANYONE WAS WONDERING: The Barenaked Ladies' children's album is pretty delightful. I am kind of riding a caffeine and baking high right now, but the first song is called "789", which is about what you'd think it would be. (This is pretty much my favorite joke ever, because I am about six years old.) The second song includes the lyrics "The ninjas are deadly and silent. / They're also unspeakably violent." It contains something called "The Canadian Snacktime Trilogy". (Gordon Lightfoot's favorite snack is pasta, in case you were wondering.) There is also a really delightful alphabet song. (J is for "jalapeno", you guys.)
It's funny, I ended up listening to it because MCR did a children's song - Every Snowflake Is Different - that made me remember how much I like that kind of thing, which, yes, is something that I really shouldn't have needed reminding of. (Jian Ghomeshi interviewed Steven Page after he left the band and the children's album gets mentioned in that interview.)
I don't actually know where I am on my yuletide, and I can't figure out where I was at this time in previous years, but it will be done soon? Because I have decided that this is a thing that is going to happen and then I get to work on other fannish projects. (If I'm good I get to go on a field trip for fluff and generally be a geek.)
