sunday

 

Is it me, or is it harder to get out of bed on Sundays than any other day?

The promise of French toast with bananas, candied pistachios and maple butter at the Lake Effect Diner helped this morning. A great beginning to a low key but productive day. 

And to end the day, we just finished watching Kick Ass! on a whim, not knowing anything about it, thinking it would be a little break from the heaviness of The Wire, which we have been plowing through three episodes at a time over the past couple of months thanks to a friend letting us borrow the box set. 

A break? Not so much, really. I am working on a project right now involving childhood trauma, making it an inopportune time to watch a movie in which an 11 year old girl ("Hit Girl") murders about 40 people without reading too much into it. Holy Moly - we were not prepared for that! (And I won't even get started on how difficult it has been to watch The Wire while working on said project - particularly Season Four, which we are in right now).

Wish me luck on the whole "sweet dreams" thing, and sweet dreams to you too.
