another time, another place
June 04, 2008
I was sick yesterday.
I don�t know what hit me, but it felt a bit like a truck. I stayed home. Dozed a lot. Cried a little, when I learned that Obama clinched it. Cheered myself up with Whose Line (UK) and Stephen Fry clips on YouTube.
I have something else to divert my mind this evening, though. The other day, I ordered a copy of an old Australian miniseries��Brides of Christ��from Amazon Marketplace. It came today, and I�m looking forward to seeing it. I�ve seen enough bits of it on YouTube to really pique my interest and make me go looking for it. I came across it when I made one of my periodic searches for Philip Quast songs. He doesn�t sing in it, but oh, my�he was quite a hunk, as the economics teacher. The convent school's secular, liberal, black-leather-jacket-wearing, motorcycle-riding, male economics teacher.
Anyway, it arrived this morning, and I intend to get at least one episode under my belt this evening. Hence the short post. I just really feel the need to escape to a different era, and while I'm at it--the other side of the world.
Reading: Back to "John Adams". I think I�ll be finishing it this time around, but no promises�he�s got still got 26 years left to live.
Beading: Bead order hasn�t arrived yet. Tomorrow, I hope!
Surfing: Monty on Movies. I wish he posted more often, though.
Listening: Political bullshit on NPR.
