John and Rae come over for lunch. We had spaghetti.
Fierce headache. I had to have a bath.
Dinner was risotto with jumbo scallops, which Moira cooked. I didn't come close to finishing it. I've just never liked risotto.
We rented the DVD of Douglas Sirk's Imitation of Life. It was unintentionally funny. The first scene already had me imagining the Carol Burnett version. Notice that in '50s movies a woman had to choose between work and marriage, and couldn't have both. (This is one of the movies that Todd Haynes' Far From Heaven was a reworking of.)
Spent hours online looking up the comic books Swing With Scooter and The Two-Gun Kid.
