I've never watched either Equalizer movie, nor either TV series, the reboot of which is in its second season.

Another rather dandy night of sleep. If I could just get the arthritic pains and neuropathy to tone it down.

A day at home with the hearings. I do wish they were still beginning at 10:00a.m. instead of 1:00p.m.

Last night I finished Sanditon, and I'm ready for Season 2.

The show was developed by Andrew Davies, who wrote the wonderful 1995 Pride and Prejudice and other adaptations I've enjoyed. His Pride and Prejudice had a certain soap opera quality in his attempts to give Darcy more balance in the narrative, a life beyond the novel, and more sex appeal, making more a romantic comedy that a cvomedy of manners Sanditon takes it one step further.

I felt the first half was pretty much in Jane austen territory but the second half moved up around twenty years into the territory of the heaving bosoms and lust of Wuthering Heights, although Miss Lamb's abduction and reascue reminded me of the 18th century novel Clarissa. Jane Austen was certainly aware of sexual abuse, homosexuality and incest, as she proves in Mansfield Park with the ultra-bizarrer siblings Mary and Henry Crawford, but she never completel;y spells anything out. Davies' screenplay goes over the top with the kinky and tortured of the abused Clara Brereton and Sir Edward Denham. The novel was never written far enough to define exactly what their relationship will be, but Davies decided its a lurid one.

I have to say I enjoyed it, and I am curious to see where Season 2 goes.

I had a rocky night of sleep, dominated by a dream fragment that repeated itself endlessly throughout what seemed to be the entire second half of the night. I finally got up to visit the necessary, and decided to just stay up.

The dream fragment was about a single bar of music in Disaster! that was to take us out of a vamp and into the bridge of a song. There's one place in the show that's definitely a source, and maybe another couple of moments that the dream stole from. In the end, though, the repetition of that kind of dream is so highly irritating that it ultimately doesn't matter, you just want it gone. Forever.

Slept poorly. I’ll credit dancing for the first time in more than 10 days. My shins are sore.

  My shins are sore. 

There's an easy solution to that. Tell your dance partner not to kick them so much.

The new route to the theeder was very nice and I shall continue to use it.....it is a bit confusing, so it will take a few days for me to get it right....and hopefully I won't make any wrong turns.

I still drove the construction route on the way home, because I'm not sure of the new route in the dark.  I was fine until the last mile when a motorcycle got behind me and stayed as close as he could.

He kept weaving back and forth and racing his engine although I was going at least 8 miles of the speed limit anyway.  As soon as the road widened he flew past me on the right side.....I hope he got where he wanted to be.

He was out of it later that day. He made his displeasure known.

Birdy Barnum likes most of the JOSEPH songs I have been playing....but I think he's tired of them.

Understandable. Still, I think it’s Lloyd-Webber’s best score. Unfettered fun.

It is Tuesday, the 21st of June in Johnston SC.

Where has this month gone??? 

Where will this day take me?

Hopefully, it will find me doing all my PT exercises, including the new ones.
