Thought I’d be up before dawn—and was for a while—but fell back to sleep until a little after seven. Not sure what that was about, but I guess I needed the sleep.
Worked on a short this morning, then headed out to the theater to catch the new release of West Side Story. Man, I thought, why remake a classic? But having seen what Spielberg did, I take back every bad reservation I had. It was a splendid piece of work. Really wonderful.
Finished the last of my N critiques when I got back, then talked on the phone to my sister for a while. Had a nice chat.
Day went by in a flash, but that’s okay. It turned out well.
Looking across the street and around the neighborhood I’d have to say it’s a bit lonely this year. But the boys will be coming in a few weeks, so that should help. Been a melancholy holiday in some ways. Hope that passes soon.
