Still alive

Feel halfway normal today, which is strange. I sort of hate saying that because every time I do, it seems to hit me with a vengeance hours later.

Haven't been keeping up with LJ too well. Here and there. But I have been watching a lot of old movies. One series I went through was some Dorothy L. Sayers mysteries thing made back in the 80s, I think. It was so adorably stereotypically British. Well, Masterpiece Theater kind of British. "Darling, if you'll marry me I'll take it as good indication that you like me." And stuff like that. :D I'm sad though - apparently there was a final book which they didn't turn into a miniseries. I got sort of addicted to "she's dancing with another man, which makes me peeved enough to give a slight glare at them through my monocle." It looks like there was an audiobook done, which I might have to order. Why don't places let you buy and download audiobooks? If a place would have offered it, I would have done it. I wanted instant gratification.

I've moved on to Miss Marple. Not as entertaining since I kind of like the romance subplot (and they're slow as hell). I have a thing for sleuthing couples. (Which is why Nancy needs to dump Ned and hook up with Frank, which would be the most awesome sleuthing duo ever.)

Sort of bored, which is an improvement over exhausted.

Crusoe

I'm sure this goes completely away from the book, but it still might be interesting to see what they do with it. The only downside is that looks like it's an actual season rather than a mini-series. But it also looks like they've adopted the 13-episode season with it instead of the 22, so maybe that's a good sign? This would be one story I wouldn't want to see dragged out forever and ever, but if it does reasonably well, the drive will be so very strong to keep it going. Anyway, I'll at least watch the first episode.
