RIP, Madeleine L'Engle. I loved her in smallish doses. I named my laptop for her.
* I'm going to see Sir Ian McKellen at the Guthrie next month! Not in King Lear or The Seagull, unfortunately, but at something called Global Voices, where I guess he's going to have a dialogue with some other theater people. I treated myself to good seats, to I'll be quite close to his Sir Ian-ness. Squee!
