June 16, 2004

"As flies to wanton schoolboys, so are we to the gods:  they kill us for sport"--King Lear

"Murder, my dear Frankie, is just an acceleration of natural processes"--Why Didn't They Ask Evans?

Dreamed of a woman suspected of murder and wondering whether she was guilty; driving a toy car on foot all the way along the road from Port Elgin to Sackville, New Brunswick; noticing that the road was in dire need of repair in some places.

Finally got all the volunteer slips entered in the contact book at the campaign office!

Saw the rest of the Agatha Christie mystery Why Didn't They Ask Evans?  It turns out that it was actually about a forged will.

Dinner was McDonald's.

Saw a 1970 Russian movie of King Lear at the Cinematheque [directed by Grigory Kozintzev, who also filmed a Russian Hamlet, and Iosif Shapiro].  Quite good.

For the first weekday in a while, I received nothing in the mail.
