"Fling him to the ape! Let him be torn to shreds!"--The Thief of Bagdad
Dreamed of walking home while gradually consuming my whole pill supply (I was cutting some Celexa pills in half just before bedtime); watching runners pass by in the upcoming 10K marathon; the Gordon Lightfoot song "Early Morning Rain."
Saw the Verdi opera Il Trovatore at the Hummingbird Centre. Now there's an opera that kicks ass!
Dinner was KFC.
Saw the silent version of The Thief of Bagdad, for maybe the third time. (The DVD worked after all, on the upstairs player.) Directed by Raoul Walsh and starring the exuberant Douglas Fairbanks, it's a delightfully exotic romantic adventure. Some really incredible sets, designed by the great William Cameron Menzies.
Added a whole lot of DVD requests to our zip.ca queue. (We have over 300, which would last a couple of years.)
