Am back

I got back last night but ended up in a passive state of blah regarding online things ;) Mostly caught up on the f-list, have downloads queued up to take me a long while, and the whole of [livejournal.com profile] yuletide to read.

In the meantime, some recs:

Some Sort of Poetry - my first Christmas present, drunken student smut with what might just as well be original characters. [livejournal.com profile] fyrie rocks beyond belief.

Personal Demons - this would be what I got on the second day of Christmas. [livejournal.com profile] fyrie again, Jekyll/Hyde bdsm non-con semi-wank, and if that description doesn't make you check it out...

Sympathy of Wolves - my Yuletide gift, which rocks to high heavens. Dracula!!!

I booked my Vienna trip this February (to the 10th anniversary concert of a Certain Musical) early, before the cast was announced. In the interval before we got the cast, I often joked with Mother that with my luck, Von Krolock would end up being Uwe Kröger (something of my personal German musical nemesis, aka the guy I love to hate).

The VK at the concert will fortunately be Thomas Borchert, whom I adore for his voice, presence and mesmerising eyes, but um. I think I jinxed it.

Uwe Kröger and Maya Hakvoort doing Totale Finsternis. Which would work better if she wasn't half a head taller than him.

As an antidote (though remaining with German musicals), have some Borchert singing a song from Mozart!. My perennial favourite Máté Kamarás does a wonderful job with another one.

(And in other musical news, my OTHER favourite, Maki Ichiro - see icon - gave birth in October to a baby girl. Mother: played Death and Elisabeth. Father: played Death. I think this is one kid who's going to be raised on Kunze/Levay lullabies :>)
