1. finished reading collection of short stories, lord peter. desperate for more sayers. what's more worth writing and reading than a comedy of manners?

2. appears to be some kind of small prickly spine in the meaty part of the ball of my foot, just where all the weight falls. nothing perceptible to the naked eye.

3. dog on crack. won't shut up. contractors have been tramping in and out for a year and a half, but if you'd think he'd be used to them you'd be wrong.

4. saw some sort of old black and white, very political movie, with some sort of campaign for president... one of the supporting actresses i could swear is an extremely young angela lansbury. holy shit, she's hot. maybe just a relative. resemblance, if so, nearly as uncanny as unexpected hotness. and i want her cocktail dress!

i want an icon of just a mouth, i think.

ugh. she had this:

"Oh, god." Potter burst into laughter. He must be hysterical. ... Potter's laughter died down, and he turned and looked at Snape. "Sorry. It's just that it suddenly struck me--" He inhaled. "I tell you I--and you tell me you don't hate me. I suppose romance isn't dead after all. I'm never drinking again. Good night."

--which i thought was really very striking, and then she has to spoil it with

"No, I mean it. Is this just--just a shag?"

9.9 why must people do this to me? it was so promising. oh. if you want to read it it's one of minx's and it's here, but it's already on my recs page.
