Cell M interim report

Had our first session of Delta Green last night. ( It went pretty well, considering. )

If you have no idea what I'm wittering about, perhaps you would like to know: What is Delta Green?

Mood music

Don't ask me why, but I somehow evolved the need to listen to a certain type of music when lounging in the bath, that being...I'm not sure what, exactly, it is: swing? big band? jazz? This is a genre I know less than nothing about, so I've not been sure what to look for. But, picture a movie that takes place in the 30s; then imagine the ObHotSinger in the speakeasy who's wearing a long sparkly dress and crooning some extremely suggestive song while draping herself over the gumshoe. Now put that on a scratchy record and play it on a cruddy record player. That.

We have none of That. An entire wall of CDs, but not That. Tonight, however, I discovered that the Dick Tracy soundtrack (which I'd utterly forgotten Steve had) will suffice. Less pleasing, I might add, was having to jump out of the tub five songs in because the fucking player got stuck. Well, nothing's perfect.

I am slightly confused--I've only seen the movie once, but I seem to remember Madonna being in it, in said ObHotSinger role, but nothing on this CD is sung by her. Lots of other people, up to and including that bastion of swing Ice-T, but no Madonna. Go figure.
