I really did have some things to accomplish today and I mostly did… I also followed my nose, moving from this to that as I felt like it. I even went out and played in the rain in my jammies. My hair is soooo soft now. I did a little puzzling, made a nice omelette for brunch, and then finished my blanket to the point of crocheting the rows together. That may take me longer as I get hot working with it on my lap and have to keep setting it aside. I had a trifecta movie day too and am really glad I watched them in the order I did. Only happy thoughts at the end of the night.
Midnight Express came out in 1978 and all I remember was my mom saying something about a tongue. At 15 I was forbidden to see it. I am glad. It was a strong cautionary tale and aside from the soundtrack it was pretty amazing. Interesting fact, Brad Davis who played Billie Hayes died young from HIV and his son is currently an actor on Grey’s Anatomy.
Hugo, what a beautiful film. It was so easy to get lost in it. Amazing camera angles and POVs that left me enchanted. It reminded me a little bit of The Life Aquatic or The Grand Budapest Hotel in feel and delight.
And to complete my odd trilogy, Hot Fuzz. I do love crazy fun movies but didn’t realize quite how gory it was. All good fun though and I suppose I shall have to watch #2 now.
It has been strange the last two nights to hear the bubbles expanding, neighbours on each side having get togethers. I must say it is only noticeable because it is unusual. They have been respectful to shut it down at a decent time. I look forward to having people over in June. That is my plan, to stay as is until I feel good and well. Then a small sized round the fire get together outside.
