We watched Impromptu last week. I have to say I was not overly impressed, though I may have had higher expectations after Quilt. Honestly, Hugh Grant was the saving grace of the film, I’ve never seen him that I didn’t think he did a fine job. Bernadette Peters, whom I expected to enjoy was sorta….enh, , and the gal who played George Sands was as interesting as cabinet hardware. Overall, I’m really glad that I don’t have to pay Blockbuster by the rental, because this one would not have been worth the money.

It’s been almost a week since I posted. No one sent out a posse, but I am sure you missed me anyway. I’ve been taking care of some other things: doing a bit of cleaning, watching some tube, making a few plans, reading a few pages, swimming in the pool wearing nothing but an animal inflatable. Oops, I lied. I don’t have a pool.

Anyway, I’m back, and I appreciate your patience!

I finished yesterday. I got near enough to the end that I just pushed aside most of what I needed to do so I could veg out on the couch and read. I have to say that there is not as much weirdness in this book as I expected. There are just a couple of paranormal scenes in the book (in one of them a whole collection of stuff comes falling from the sky, including, I’m sure, a complete cookware set). The rest of the book is just about people, as the best of the King books tend to be.

The books—oops that was a Freudian slip, but I will leave it, because it illustrates my point—work together to tell a complete story, but each section of the book could also stand alone. Reading this book is a fine way to spend a few summer afternoons, and has done a masterful job of characterization, as usual. You’ll get an amazing glimpse into teh mind sets that brought about the decade of radical change we cal the 60s.

I have to admit that I love classic television. We get an hour of Andy Griffith here every night, and I just start grinning when I hear the theme song. I even have a few episodes on DVD. Andy’s from around here, you know. He grew up in Mount Airy, North Carolina. It’s fun to watch the show and think back on a time when the Raleigh personal injury lawyer category took up less than a full page in the phone book.
