Catching up with work and movies
Mostly with work the past day as I got almost nothing done from Wed-Friday after Wiscon. So read and edited all today until movie time this evening.
I watched two episodes of Deadwood and Stray Dog by Kurosawa and with Toshira Mifune, about a rookie cop whose stolen gun is used to commit crimes and is driven by his guilt to solve the crimes.
However...my DVD player has a glitch. The sound has gone off--as if it's recorded in a studio rather than natural sounding...Never happened before. I've gotten advice from someone on a listserve as to how to check out what might be wrong with it. Tomorrow...
ATTENTION:
Mary Robinette Kowal was over for scotch, fruit, cheese, and fig bread and fixed my DVD player--by reading the directions. It was mistaken set to reverb something or other...the cats did it. I know I certainly didn't!
And finally...
Horror World has just posted a very good review of INFERNO.
The link moves to Horror World in July.
Toodling off to bed so that I am bright eyed and bushy tailed enough for more work tomorrow. (and to fiddle with the DVD player)
