Her lovely highness Princess Theredras
Continuing the WoW theme from Monday, there are some days when you cut a swath through your foes and bards write epic poems about you to be sung in every tavern in Azeroth. And then there are those days when you can’t hit the (extremely) broad side of Princess Theradras with a dart gun, and you’ve made so many trips to the Spirit Healer she’s starting to charge you rent.
The last few days have been the second kind for me. My body’s gone on a frontal assault against its imaginary enemies again; I appreciate its patriotism but I enjoy the truce periods so much more. So I’m not going to push it, since I’m saving my energy for a little celebration next week. I’ll just send you off here with probably my favorite video on the Internet, an incredible animation called “Doll Face” by Andrew Huang that goes beautifully with VNV Nation‘s haunting song “Illusion.” (Here’s the movie with the original soundtrack.)
