I have a musical house...
I don't know if we've skipped from Fall right into Spring or what, but it's windy enough today to fly a box "that a refrigerator comes in", let alone a box KITE.
This keeps up, we're gonna be the "New Chicago".(Hope we also get the excellent rock group of the same name...) Anyway, thanks to all this wind, I've discovered today that this house is very musical. Well, the livingroom is, anyway. Sitting here, I can hear the wind hooting in and around various orafices (of the house, not me) and it sounds kinda like a flute. A Civil War flute. It's damned near playing a sensible tune, too. Add to that the "percussion" of the bucket of calf minerals in the basement that has the hose and clicky pump that sounds almost like a heartbeat late at night to pump the minerals through the hose from the basement to the nearby calf barn water troughs and this place is damned near a one-house band. Now, if this shit turns into that fife and drum tune that I seem to recall Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck playing as they limp off into the sunset in one of their cartoons, I'll be taking the kitchen TV, the DVD player, my CD player, many DVD's and CD's and the damned coffee pot and locking myself in the bathroom for a really long time. Or until it's been ascertained that it's CONFEDERATE guys in the band.... Toodely toot toot yerself, house.
ka-thunk, ka-thunk, ka-thunk...

"...In the whispers and sighs, in the whispers and sighs of the night
Ah ghosts in the wind, eh ghosts in the wind
Now this old house moves, this old house moves and moans
The tongues of the night, the tongues of the night stir my bones
Ah ghosts in the wind, oh ghosts in the wind..."
