Happy Birthday, Lady Bunniful!

In honor of Rebecca’s birthday, would all Muse Academy students and alumni please rise and sing the Lasley House song:


Take my soul,
Take my mind,
Leave me not a scrap behind.
I don’t care,
I’ll still be
Loyal to my House, Lasleeee.

Take our knees,
Take our butts,
Take our bones and blood and guts.
Lock them up,
Lose the key —
You can’t take my House from me.

I’ll return
Home and free,
Led by serendipity.
You can’t take my House from me!

Happy Birthday, MuseBlog!

It’s that time of year again: the very date on which our beloved blog erupted onto an unsuspecting Internet, to the discombobulation of just about everybody. It seems like only yesterday, and now suddenly we’re seven years old! Seven eventful years, and nary a squib in the bundle.

Expressions of dysphasic ecstasy and delirious incredulity will be most welcome, of course.
