Fall is Falling
Oct. 23rd, 2006 01:21 pmWe’re having weather whiplash, as is usual for October. Saturday morning around 7:30 when I was getting into the car to go to Collegium, there were gusts of hot Santa Anna winds, muttering, “Firestorm, firestorm,” as they passed. Then today it was all about fog. I make no predictions for the moment; it could start raining any day.
( and there was Collegium )
I got nearly caught up on my sleep Saturday night then spoiled it Sunday by giving in and letting the cat sleep with me … who proceeded to wake me up every few hours for repositioning, grooming, and digging through the trash basket. Saturday was also for shopping (including some frustrating gift-shopping), movie going (Marie Antoinette – don’t bother**), and getting caught up on the dishes (memo: must call plumber to get kitchen faucet replaced; controlling drips becomes even harder after the handle has come off and you’re maneuvering the ball-joint with an allen wrench and a rubber mallet).
( and there was movie reviewing )
When I posted my semi-scathing review of Janet Aylmer’s “Darcy’s Story”, it had not yet been impressed on me that there has been an explosion of professionally published Pride and Prejudice fan-fic. ( and there is further meta-reviewing and research and wonderment )
