Sitting through The Sound of Music during an obligatory family movie night this Thanksgiving weekend. I'd watched it before some as a kid but now, y'all HOLY SHIT.

Naive protagonist is volun-told to leave their restrictive religious background to deal with the outside world. Shenanigans ensue. Protagonist has a fire-ice relationship with the One Person They Should Not Fall in Love with, but the two eventually find common ground. Big party scene featuring historic Dancing. Protagonist is confronted by a shady side character who points out the Impossible Relationship that is developing. Protagonist abandons love to run back to their extremely religious upbringing.

Also Nazis.

Good Omens Fandom, can I get a wahoo?

Yasha: (Reading Abyssal inscription on underground obelisk.) It says,

"Build every bridge,

Become every nightmare,

Feast on every heart."

My daughter's school did "The Sound of Music" this year for their play; my daughter was Mother Abbess. Honestly, you don't expect this sort of thing to go past being a proud parent who might have to hear someone else's kid (natch) miss a note here and there, but this particular performance turned into an actual news story on account of how best to handle a play that deals with Nazi Germany where young ones are concerned. Literally four local news outlets, the regional paper, the local free news site, and a handful of other news outlets picked it up. I don't know if anyone was completely happy with the outcome--I wrote about it at some length on the Substack.

Tonight, though, I just want to lean in on the experience and something that's a touchstone for a lot of us. There are just a load of canonical songs in the musical; "Climb Ev'ry Mountain" is maybe the trickiest to sing. Peggy Wood is just amazing here. And I'm a proud parent for my daughter having done her best with it--and with the whole play.

She lives there now.

(Don't make the mistake of thinking she is stuck. She's exactly where she wanted to be. It's my fault for not letting her climb even higher and retreat into the mountain fully, which is her dream.)

Gaze upon my wild child. She has never met a hill she hasn't wanted to go up.
