In which we play piano, and also embark on a totalitarianistic op-ed.

I am having such a hard time deciding whether my favourite word to say today is Totalitarianism or Maharajah. They both just have such a beautiful syllabic cadence.
On a side note, I don't think anyone has ever used the word "totalitarianism" in a song better than Nick Cave.
On a sider note, I got to have a good mini-conversation about George Orwell today, which makes any day better.
On a sidest note, I got to lecture about and break down Ridley Scott's iconic 1984 Apple commercial. Which makes any day better.
I think I'll just go with Tea-Totaling Totalitarian Maharajah.
Happy day, world.

In which we dine on delectable tortilla soup created by the delectable @countessbecca in front of the telly while starting our annual viewing of Elf. Our son is currently in bed practicing his loud burping. So many wonderful tricks to learn from the heartwarming, sidesplitting classic.
I think my favourite classic Christmas song today is Little Drummer Boy.
Yours?
