Making: About halfway done w/ Curious George #2 (basted / now just quilting & binding to go).
Reading: This hilarious new book by Michael Chabon “Gentlemen of the Road”. It’s an Arabian Nights-like, fairytale-esque story, and as such the incredible overuse of adjectives, similes and metaphors TOTALLY FITS the mood. But they’re so abundant that it sometimes becomes giggle-inducing. “With his skin that was lustrous as the tarnish on a copper kettle, and his eyes womanly as a camel’s, and his shining pate with its roof of wool whose silver hue implied a seniority attained only by the most hardened men, and above all with the air of stillness that trumpeted his murderous nature to all but the greenest travelers on this minor spur of the Silk Road…” Come on now, people, are you not totally cracking up now? It’s a very enjoyable read.
Watching: K-Ville was the only show with a fresh episode this week (and it was way too over the top) but I also watched the Bones rerun since it’s one of my favorites (the Christmas where they all get locked in the lab). Maybe a movie Thursday night? We’ll see.
Listening: Very obsessively to two albums: Bat for Lashes “Fur and Gold” and Sea Wolf “Leaves in the River”. Completely in love with both of them.
