i watched kubrick's Barry Lyndon this weekend.
it was pretty to look at (fabulous costumes).
it was long.
that about sums it up.

the aquaria-like quality of this film makes it
pleasantly fascinating and mind-numbingly boring
depending on your state of mind

i'm on page 91 (of 3,000) of The Baroque Cycle. i like it, though it does tend to go on a bit much. the writing is good enough that i haven't gotten bored with it, though i am beginning to get a wee fussy for the plot to move forward (after 91 pages, i think i have been patient enough).

i'm hosting Thanksgiving dinner, turns out, which has me excited and distracted (and all-over-tired too).
i finished NaNo on monday. did i already mention this? whatever.
i feel pestered lately and cannot shake the feeling. prolly because there are so many things need doing and they're not getting done. (the usual).
and that's pretty much all there is to report. tomorrow is a long day of dentistry and errands and house cleaning. relatives visiting this weekend, so i may be signing off from posting for a while, but i'll try to continue reading along!
happy holidays to my american f-listers!
: D

for all the gifts and blessings of the year,
may we all be truly thankful!
