finishing up

Small things that feel tender: Italian recipe book from Angela Liguori and I Can Count to Eight print from Yumi Yumi.

Somehow I finished reading the Joan Didion book in about 24 hours. I didn't even think I was that glued to it. Now I've moved onto Jhumpa Lahiri's The Namesake. I haven't seen the film, but I did read one of her other books a couple years ago and entirely loved the flavor of her writing.

I tried for the third time to watch the Danish film The Boss of It All and fell asleep again, but not because it was boring. I really did want to watch it. I think that listening to Danish just soothed me so much that I dozed off. I also had a bout of klutziness yesterday, two incidents of tripping over power cords and then one instance of walking smack into a door frame while carrying a bowl of oatmeal. Sometimes I think my perception is misaligned about five inches to the right.

Cute blog! I actually had the same falling asleep movie problem, but with the movie "Vincent" about Vincent Van Gogh. John Hurt is the narrator, and something about his voice...I actually fell asleep to "Nineteen Eighty Four" with John Hurt so I think it's John Hurt.

Keep it up, I love the items you feature!
