This is appalling. After all the acclaim Little Dorrit received?? Do they need a larger fanbase, 'cause I'll find them one!!! What on earth???!??!?!?! (breathe. just breathe..)

    "People like bonnets. I don't think you can underestimate that."

    If I hadn't have just updated my facebook profile, this would be it. Ha!

    Dangit. I was gonna do that exact same thing! Of course people like bonnets! How dare the British think of doing anything else! No one wants to hear anything else from them anyway! I shall defend Dickens to the death, Molly. Hear me on this one.

    You could both post the same comment. I'm pretty sure your only friends in common are Emily and me. :)

    We could ALL post that as our comments!
    But seriously. I can't believe they criticize when JLM is in a starring role. It's just wrong.

    I know. I don't get it either. It's like they've got the greatest film history of any film company ever and they're like 'this isn't working.' what gives??

    on another note, i really shouldn't post comments after midnight.

    Random alert!

    Whenever someone says "What gives?" in type, I always think of Joe Junior in While You Were Sleeping.

Dear Nathaniel, I am microwaving pie that Mom bought up in Oak Glen this week on her way home from the orthodontist. As I put it in the microwave, I was full of sadness that I was not in Oak Glen with her. Why did I not go? I was working. I want to see the trees turn. I want to wander slowly through autumnal gift shops. Under the water, you cannot sense the approach of the seasons. Even here it is difficult because, after all, it's California. But I can still sense it. After three seasons in Illinois and one in Scotland, it must be with me for good. Or at least for a while. Because I am all abuzz with eagerness for fall and winter, for turkeys and dried leaves and Santa. I should start cooking again this fall. Fall foods are my favorite.

And we will drink Scandinavian mulled wine, which is the most wonderful thing I have e...

Again in Gilead

I just finished reading this for the second time last week, thanks to the forever book group of Grace. It was equally as lovely the second time around, and while reading it, I wrote down a dozen more quotes from the incomparable Ames, who is both too beautiful a man to be real and too beautiful a man not to be real. (I'm grateful and amazed to know a few like him.) "It has been my experience that guilt can burst through the smallest breach and cover the landscape, and abide in it in pools and danknesses, just as native as water." (p.82) I have found this to be remarkably true. I see it in myself, and in many others as well. "I believe there are visions that come to us only in memory, in retrospect." (p.91) This seems to be about the only way I experience visions, but because memory is a rickety thing, I tend not to trust them much. Which makes me a poor prophet. "I know, too, that my own experience of the church has been, in many senses, shelte...

So I started filing my taxes. I know, they're due in three days. Then I find that I owe. More particularly, I owe more money than is presently sitting in my checking account (or checking and savings combined - I know, a sad state). This means that I'm not paying with TurboTax online. I'm going ghetto and mailing a check, crossing my fingers that it won't get deposited until after Thursday. Sad, sad state. Let's hear it for that raise.
