When are the tents coming down?
The trouble is that I am dead flat exhausted and therefore nothing interesting is happening on this journal, because nothing interesting is happening in my brain. I am tired of work. I am finding the news difficult to deal with. ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
spatch came home from Davis Square with fancy ravioli from Dave's and a sherry mushroom sauce to cook them in. Valerie Taylor's The Girls in 3-B (1959) reminds me of a Dorothy Arzner movie except that in addition to the clear and critical examination of heteronormativity, the novel contains an explicitly lesbian couple who get a happy ending as a pleasant antidote to all the crushing boy-meets-girl maneuvering. It is not Tyrone Power's fault, but when I discover that he starred in a movie called Captain from Castile (1947), speaking as a person who has seen My Favorite Year (1982) more times than I can count, I'm afraid my first reaction is "Captain from crap!"

Much appreciated. I'm waiting to see if the time change helps.

I've never been more grateful for the "extra" hour myself than this year.

I think it may have! I didn't manage to be asleep for the extra hour, unfortunately, but I am at least functional at a time of day that does not feel completely wasted.
