The Return and The Fall
I'm back at uni now. The flight was uneventful, thank goodness. Classes start on Tuesday.
I saw War Horse last week. I liked it. It gave me a lot of feelings, but I did like it. I've not the greatest movie ever made, but I like horses a lot and it was entertaining. I laughed through the entirety of Benedict Cumberbatch's first scene. I cannot take that mustache seriously. I've described War Horse to people as "Black Beauty except it's WWI." It increased my desire to see the stage play. I would give so much to be in that show. Even if I had to be a horse's ass. ;) (I'd probably have to be the barbed wire or Baby Joey or maybe a horse's head. I'm not strong enough to be a butt "hind.")
The last episode of Sherlock series two is tomorrow. The Reichenbach Fall. I know what happens and I know it will be well done, but I've never more emotionally invested in and less prepared for an episode of a TV show. I foresee much weeping and eating of junk food. Not the best way to deal with it, but oh well. I think I'm going to run out and get a chocolate shake before the episode starts.
I've been reading the Temeraire series by Naomi Novik and I just love it! Napoleonic wars with sentient, English-speaking dragons? What could be better than that?! You should try them. I was skeptical at first, but I really, really like them. She put a lot of thought into the world they take place in and it shows.
