#The Trumpet Blast

[kenobihater]

made a post a while back on how javert's suicide is often poorly portrayed in film adaptations to the point of accidental comedy, and how the 1978 movie in particular is the most unhinged example. audio warning for a loud trumpet blast, don't turn up your volume

i know its new year's eve and all that and it's a time to be as loud as possible but if you are using your car/motorcycle to make some noise im afraid im gonna have to kill you

I don't know why but my brain just constantly wants to conflate the most famous works of John Knox and Robert Kirk (two very different Church of Scotland ministers) and lately I've had to stop myself accidentally referring to 'The Monstrous Regiment of Elves, Fauns, and Fairies' which is a pain because I'm pretty sure that's also a mish-mash of at least two fantasy novels that I haven't read, and at the end of the day how the hell did we get here

[rememberthelaughtermp3]

my worst habit is listening to music and scrolling on my phone while practicing trumpet it's so bad and i can't stop

In case nobody else has answered, it's a baritone (bari) sax! A very pretty one at that, I don't think I've seen a matte black one before.

daily kestrel 70:

worked, went to Sam's on my lunch break to buy some totes for packing, and did more work. and then after work.... we went to three houses, the first of which was a bust, followed by two absolute zingers that we could see ourselves in

long story short, we're putting three offers in in the morning and seeing what sticks. simultaneously terrified and excited, we rocked out to Freaks by Timmy Trumpet on the way home. we decided to get the big Zaxby's chicken tender pack for dinner, and after discussing in the car that we missed their milkshakes, we arrived to discover that they have brought back milkshakes - we took it as a good omen and got one for each of us, mostly as a surprise for Paige since Peyton and I were the ones who went in to pick up the food. after that big dinner, it's 9pm and it's bed time

I find it ironic that I went into my wedding dress shopping going "no strapless dresses" and went into this house shopping going "no split foyers", life really likes to twist me up in my words and prove me wrong. oh and Peyton can do an incredibly uncanny impression of the voice Bob does for the burgers when he talks to them

"How can you forget sticky notes, they're right on your desk! Right in front of you! Are you a toddler with no concept of object permanence?"

No I'm just ADHD and the Brain Noises are at such a constant cacophony it's like there's a 500 player orchestra constantly playing and each instrument is playing a different songs at the same time in my head that I most importantly can't shut off.

Try remembering a sticky note exists when the trumpets are blasting star wars, the violins are playing never gonna give you up, the flutes are playing livin la vida loca and the drums think they're a christmas marching band.

"Surely it's not that much input!"

I am at my desk in my bedroom right now. I hear my parents talking in the other room, my cat snoring behind me, the water was turned on and off in the kitchen, the fan is running, the ac is on, there's shuffling of slippers, I can smell my candle, I heard a car go by, the computer is buzzing and it's fan is running, I can hear the fishtank in the other room because my bedroom door is open. The clicking of the keyboard is satisfying but loud. I look up and see everything on my desk. I taste the hot coco i just ate, I hear the fridge beeping, I heard my stomach make a Noise, my over the ear headphones make a soft shhhh sound wqhen they're not playing music, my tinnitus rings constantly, my neck crackled when I looked to the left.

That input DOESN'T SHUT OFF.

Y'all with executives that can function? They're in a nice quiet boardroom with pretty windows and a quiet meeting.

MY executives are forest critters in ties and glasses meeting in the Denny's parking lot at 4am to go over peanut butter recipes and that song we heard when we were 8 and can't EVER let go. What important stuff happened today? I dunno, the raccoon disguised as the board meeting leader ATE the file.

For consideration:

A nearly complete 1st century BCE carnyx found in 2004 at Tintignac, France (the one in the left picture, with a reconstruction in the right). Fashioned as a snarling boar, the carnyx was a war horn used by the Iron Age Celts between c. 200 BCE and c. 200 CE

Intense vibrations silence my tinnitus for a short period, whether good or bad is unseen. So far the best examples have been a tuning fork (asked my parents for one for EVER but never got one until my 20s by chance, very sad), and the freaky new humming sound the heater is making after it got cleaned more than ever before yesterday. One of dad's last trucks was close, but instead fell in the range of 'this is rattling everything more loose than it was' in a painful way
