Mondayesque

[gwynnega]

It is Monday, and I am feeling less than great and hoping my chiropractor can see me soonish. Bleh. But chapter 27 is coming along. I've been researching the beginning of the Iraq War for the Jo book, and it occurred to me I could actually use my 2003 LiveJournal entries for info. Turns out I went to three antiwar rallies around the time the war started (though I'd only remembered going to one). Stuff that was happening in Feb-Mar 2003: I was beginning to write the first draft of Eleanor Bell, I'd just been accepted to grad school, my friend Stew was doing a going-away show preparatory to an east coast/European tour, Buffy season seven was airing, and the slogan of choice among my LJ friends was Make Smut Not War.

This weekend I watched the Jane Campion version of The Portrait of a Lady, which was worlds better than the turgid BBC production and which further cemented Ralph Touchett's position as one of my very favorite fictional characters evah.

I bought a copy of the DVD to watch it, because it's not in print here, and I'm glad I did, because I can tell I'll be wanting to rewatch.
