Dreamed of trying to sing "I Want to Know What Love Is" as part of a background karaoke chorus and finding the song couldn't be sung that way (actually, it probably can be); a social worker asking me if Moira was a "coject" (fellow reject from the Roman Catholic Church!)--we're actually Protestant.
Baked multigrain bread.
Went shopping.
Mowed the lawn.
Saw the last episode of Band of Brothers, about the end of the war.
Dinner was ham and scalloped potatoes.
Saw some more Carl Dreyer silents. They were Love One Another, about an anti-Semitic pogrom in Czarist Russia, the fairy-tale movie Once Upon a Time, and the Norwegian peasant romance The Bride of Blomsdalen.
The new Harper's has an essay by a veteran schoolteacher, "Against School," and an Evan S. Connell review of the life of Goya.
It turns out that Bill Bryson's I'm a Stranger Here Myself is the U.S. edition of his British publication Notes From a Big Country, which I already read last year.
