Reasons for stopping: Took Cal to Mom’s, went to see Pulse. It’s not all that, as definitively proven by rewatching Kairo immediately after—without going deep into it, basic translation problems. And then I also developed this hideous crick in my neck, which I still have.
Darling du Jour: "Her downcast eyes the same dull blue washed with faintest rose as a river’s current made sluggish by sheer proximity, by merest implication, when it flows downstream from some ford choked by fresh corpses."
Tyop du Jour: None.
Mean Things: Talked about an eight-year-old boy getting run over by a cart. Impending volcanic eruption moves ever closer.
Coffee?: Tim Horton’s in afternoon.
Food: Toast, Shreddies, yoghurt, Spring Rolls, ice cream.
Exercise: Nuttin’, honey. I even forgot about BodyFlow. And that’s why Mama shouldn’t drink.
DVDs: Brick, which really is The Glass Key crossed with Yojimbo meets The Maltese Falcon, except set in high school. It’s also amazing, thankfully. A must, a keeper, see it now.
Music: Lincoln and Self-Titled, They Might Be Giants; Hannibal soundtrack.
