cornmeal pudding
Writing: I worked on chapter ten revisions at lunchtime and made a bunch of notes for later chapters. The Jo book is at that point where the LATER chapters are enticing and fascinating and I can't stop thinking about them, but the chapter I'm actually working on is a hard slog.
Lunch: chicken mole, beans and rice, and an insanely good cornmeal pudding that I really need to stop eating right now because I am full, but it is SO GOOD.
Lest we think only Tom Desmond recites poetry on Ryan's Hope, today Pat had a go while he and Delia were in their cabin during their Cruise to Hell!!
Pat: Her lips were red, her looks were free,
Her locks were yellow as gold.
Delia: That's pretty. Say some more.
Pat: I don't remember any more.
Pat's grim voiceover: Her skin was as white as leprosy,
The Night-mare LIFE-IN-DEATH was she,
Who thicks man's blood with cold.
Gwynnega: Oh, snap! Boy, Pat and his voiceover really can't stand Delia anymore.
Despite stiff competition from "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner," Hungover!Seneca had the line of the day: "I can recover more easily from a gunshot wound than from a night at Rae Woodard's."

Although I suspect when I get to the later, enticing chapters, they will be hard slogs too... :-)

(And how perfect is it that Pat's quoting a Coleridge?)

Oooh — new Faith! The Faith I came in on. Is she just subbing, or is she replacing at this point? I loved the other Faith. But I like this one too.
Boy, Rae has a bad cold.

I'm pretty sure Faith #4 is here to stay. I loved Catherine Hicks, but Karen Morris-Gowdy really hits the ground running, and she has better chemistry with Tom than CH did. She plays Faith the longest--from 1978-1983, and then she comes back towards the end.
Poor Louise Shaffer, having to do all those scenes with a frog in her throat. Having to shoot five episodes a week didn't leave much leeway for sick time...

And wow, they gave her some gorgeous negligees.
No one seems to wear negligees anymore.
Maybe I need to buy myself one ... and maribou mules, and a martini glass, for lounging in my new home.
