"But We're As Cold As Yesterday's Mashed Potatoes..."

[psalm_onethirtyone]

...And starting to-day, Christmas is no longer offencive. When I'm home from work, I'll post.

I have far too much to do to-day, and quite nothing interesting to say. Alas, etc.

Only I'm going to rent Hamlet from the library to-day, and promised to watch Kiss me Kate with Da', and Mum and Waen are away; they've gone to their pretentious horse festival in Philadelphia. ^_~ They won't be back until to-morrow. This mostly translates as me being able to be online to-night until essentially five o'clock, whee. Also that I can listen to all the music Waen hates.

And now I must get off and shelve, and start making lists of everything I've got to do, so I don't forget--

But I'm still very happy, you know. Feeling a lot better to-day than I have been at other times this week. I've got some things sorted out. (Also, I've found I can wear a dress I bought in July. That's always nice, isn't it? It's very pretty--it's got ruffles. and pockets.)

--Work.

Kiss Me Kate! Whee! The movie, or the video of the revival? I was hoping to see the movie this weekend, but it looks like I won't have time, because Merchant of Venice and Hamlet (...and Harry Potter and Rent *g*) come first.

And I'm so glad you're happy. :)

The film! The film is very shiny, but also very random. And--random. But that does not stop Brush Up Your Shakespeare from rocking crazy amounts. --Eeee, Merchant and Hamlet! ^____^ (are you going to?)

Thank you...! *pounces*

[bewareofitalics]

You should watch the revival, too, if you can find it (I know my local library has a copy). It's fun. Although a lot of the cast isn't that great. Lilli, Fred, Bill, and Lois are wonderful, but everyone else is a little off (coincidentally, Lilli, Fred, Bill, and Lois were all from America and everyone else was British. Dunno if there's a connection there). - Yes, eeee! Even though I still have issues with Merchant and could only find the Mel Gibson Hamlet. *g* (Just got back from Harry Potter! And will see Rent tomorrow! *bounces*)

*is pounce-ed, eep!* Thou'rt quite welcome, m'dear! Now see you stay happy!

I'll ask Da' and see what we can do about that. ^__^ He liked it, I think. He saw the actual production, he says. -- Yes, well. >_> Merchant is issues. but the Mel Gibson Hamlet is very, ah, entertaining, at least. :D (eeeee. What did you think, then?)

Working on that..!

[bewareofitalics]

I saw the touring production of that revival (twice, actually), and loved it. The Lilli and Lois I saw are in the video. *g* - I'm watching Mel Gibson right now (paused during "To be or not to be," actually) and yes, entertaining. I rather like the cast, aside from Mel Gibson. Alas. And what is up with Claudius's hair? On top of his head it's brown, but his beard is gray...? They didn't have hair dye back then, did the? And if they did, I feel like Claudius would be smart enough to dye his beard, too. :P Also, why must Helena Bonham Carter be so beautiful? No fair. (Although, ahem, that casting totally works with my Olivia-is-really-Ophelia! theory. *whistles innocently*) (I liiiiiked!)

Good!

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

Eeeee, nifty. -- *snerks* Yes. Well. He went grey early (usually, you know, it's the other way around; men's hair tends to grey before their beards do). --I know. ;_________; Gah. (I--what's this now?)

[bewareofitalics]

(Oh, I've definitely told you about that one. *g* Way back when I first started Twelfth Night, I think. I was thinking about how Ophelia and Olivia both lost their father and brother, and then I decided that Ophelia didn't really drown, she just floated to Illyria [...or maybe got on a ship at some point], which was actually her home. She was expecting Laertes to join her, but obviously, he didn't, so she went into mourning. And changed her name. Er.)

(...Whose body, then?)

[bewareofitalics]

(...Kit's?)

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

(...Kit says he doesn't want anybody jumping in his grave, thanks.)

[bewareofitalics]

(...fine then, spoil my theory!)

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

(Muahaha.)

WHY AREN'T MUM AND WAEN VISITING ME?

...

Hamlet! Which version this time? And oh, does this mean you shall be online tonight? I miss you terribly, though I probably shouldn't, but the weekend feels so long ago-- But ah. *tacklehugs*

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

BECAUSE THEY'RE GOING TO THEIR PRETENTIOUS HORSE FESTIVAL.

...

Kenneth Branaugh! I want to see the shiny glittery opulence. --Yes, it does. It means precisely that; and I miss you absurdly. The weekend was a thousand--absence makes the heart--to-night. *pounce*

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

THAT'S NOT REASON ENOUGH!

...

XD A ha! And Horatio's suit, which I feel is the only reason to watch that version. --Love you, love you, and I'm so glad. *snuggle!* --Mom's off the telephone, I think. Do you suppose it's too late to call--?

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

BECAUSE I'M NOT WITH THEM.

...

Exactly. I want to see how blind I can go in three hours. --it isn't if you hurry. :P :P :P

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

OH. SO THEY DON'T LOVE ME? I SEE HOW IT IS.

...

XD XD Brilliant. That Horatio is cute, though. --she's on the telephone again. XD Maybe we should give up.

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

THEY DON'T LOVE YOU THE WAY I DO! YOU SHOULDN'T BELIEVE ANYTHING THEY TELL YOU, EITHER.

...

Yep. :D Well, of course. He's Antonio. --Or I can telephone you back. But only if you'd like. ^_^

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

NO ONE LOVES ME THE WAY YOU DO. XD

...

Too true. XD --All right! I'll--er. Let you know when the line's free? (I'm sorry.)

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

DAMN STRAIGHT. OR POSSIBLY NOT.

...

Antonio wins all including Sebastian. --All right! ^___^ That's fine. If you don't mind. (Don't apologise, you!)

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

QUITE POSSIBLY NOT.

...

But of course. Ohhh, yes. --Will do! (...;____; Sorry.) --Also, picspam!

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

AHAHAHA--OKAY, MOVING ON...!

...

*cough* :D -- ^___^ (*fanthwap*) --Eeeeeeeeeeee.

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

--YES--!

<33333? (*scandalised!pout!*) --^____^

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

--OKAY. WHAT NOW? XD

...Now? (*flounce!*) --*glomp*

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

...

...er. You still want to?

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

...

...if you want me to.

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

...

...if it's not too late for you. :D

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

...

...you're going to get Incredibly Sleepy Soujin, but if you don't mind that, all's good.

[silverdragon262.livejournal.com]

...

...of course I don't mind. XD

[rainbowjehan.livejournal.com]

All right, then! ^_____^
