Reading

The book I'm reading now is Isak Dinesen: The Life of Karen Blixen, by Judith Thurman. I've started to read it several times before, but this time I think I'll finish it. From the photographs I've seen, she was rather pretty as a girl, but didn't age too well.

I've read her Out of Africa, Shadows on the Grass, and a long short story about some ghosts. Maybe some other stories, but I don't remember them. The film "Out of Africa" is one of my favorite movies, a real tear-jerker. "He was not ours. He was not mine. . ."

Today I have to pay bills and some other boring stuff. I hope to get all the decorations put away. Somewhere. If I ever get all the boring stuff that I must do done, I plan to do a bit of writing.
