Finished another book, yay!

Holy crap, I woke up this morning knowing what film I want to do for spn_cinema. *bounces*

In other news: looks like movienight with my mom is cancelled, because she has the barking cough flu :( She does still plan to come over for dinner (and to peek at my work in progress for super_disney;). We'll see. I will make my cauliflower oven dish either way.

This morning I finished The Vesuvius Club by Mark Gatiss (a gift from tanisafan). Quite an adventurous read! Let me introduce you to narrator Lucifer Box*:
"I glanced at the watch on my dresser. My appointment was for eleven. I had only two hours to dress!
I reached [the] studio only a few minutes late..."

*Seriously ridiculous names all around in this somewhat out of control story, as told by the darling of the Edwardian belle monde - society's most fashionable portrait painter Lucifer Box. He is a wit, a dandy, a rake and the guest all hostesses (and not a few hosts) must have.
I wasn't sure at first if I liked him (my first response in a tweet to T. was "that Lucifer is a bit of a pompous ass, isn't he?";) - but I grew fond of him in the end, even if he was a "rotter" sometimes. Recommended after all.

Update + Meme

Mom did come over for dinner and we both enjoyed my cauliflower oven dish (even though I forget to add the egg to the sauce, oops). Because of the flu she didn't stay for a film, but we did have enough time to catch up and I got to show her all the art thingies I'd been working on in January:) Somehow I forgot about Jeff floating high above on the ceiling, huh. We did have a good talk about kinks though *grins* Now that movienight is cancelled, I have time to do that 39 question meme that's doing the rounds on my flist...

( Hope I am not too late to join the meme party )
