lucymonsterSenjutsu by Iron Maiden came out in full today and it made me cry twice. Whether 100% of the emotional impact is down to Maiden's musical mastery and sweeping epic themes, or whether I maybe spilt a little Current Events on it as well, could take a few more spins to decide. But I'm happy to give it whatever time it needs. It's everything I was hoping for and an all-around fucking excellent album.
It's nice to have one new thing to enjoy, because I'm otherwise in a bit of a media lull. I'm rereading Pratchett's witches and binging old seasons of the Great British Bake Off, and I'm keeping my husband company while he watches Buffy, only that last one may not have been the best idea because he's picked back up at season 5 and I'd forgotten just how many issues I have with some of the later game writing choices. I'm enjoying it, but in a bittersweet, can't-go-home kind of way that makes me half wish I'd left it alone to preserve the rosy glow of nostalgia.
I'm also most of the way through sewing a freestyle sort of wrap skirt out of some scrap crepe I found tucked away, but I had my second jab yesterday (yay!!!) and between the stiff arm and the headache I'm having trouble finding motivation to finish the hems and lining. I'm tempted to just give up on today, chuck a fruit crumble in the oven and rewatch Star Wars for the quintillionth time. Or maybe listen to Senjutsu again. It's really, really, really good.
