Hoo boy, these have been a bad bad few days.

It's been really foggy lately, and fog tends to set off my asthma. Well, the night before last, the fog was worse than usual, so I kept waking up choking. I had to sit up for a few hours and close every window in the house before I could breathe well enough to sleep.

And then last night I slept even less, but I'll talk about that tomorrow, it's a long long story.

So yesterday we saw Hidalgo over at the Academy, which I liked very much.

It's no brilliant piece of cinema art, but it's a fun throwback to the sweeping adventure epics of yore and there are horsies and hot guys and heroines both rescuing and being rescued and betrayal and guilty heroes and so on.

The best thing, besides the dimple in Viggo Mortensen's chin, was Omar Sharif. He just has this sense of calm authority that brings a great deal to a film like this. It was like Oliver Reed in Gladiator, although fortunately he didn't drop dead in the middle of the shoot.

Today's horoscope:
You're rash and in no hurry to repent. If you don't admit to and correct your mistake, it will multiply. Your potential is wasted on tantrums and other acts of will. If given a chance to start over, take it.

One year ago today:
She was just so thrilled to have remembered her line that it looked as though she was just really happy to think that he might be singing.
