| This Egyptian supreme Goddess is certainly the most influential deity on subsequent cultures. She was the ideal figure of womanhood, usually compared with the Greek Goddess Demeter or her Roman version, Ceres.

Movie: Mark and I saw The Interpreter this evening. It was an absorbing film, very intelligently written. Sean Penn actually convinced me his character was real! I thought Nicole Kidman did a superb job, and I spent a good part of the movie theorizing as to what the real assassination plot was.
My character David Young guessed wrong. *snicker*
For me, the most profound part of this movie was when Kidman's character describes how justice is carried out in the villages of the fictional African country she comes from. I wish I could remember one very beautiful quote from that scene. I found that part very moving.
Interestingly, Kidman in this movie looks a lot like an Imperial Secrets NPC of mine, Lady Maroise d'Mordaut. It was rather neat watching her--her accent was perfect for my NPC--and wondering who I could cast as her husband Alarique.
As for upcoming movies, I do want to see Kidman again in Bewitched. They've come up with a very fun way to do the remake.
We had dinner at Napoli's, and I ate a 10-inch pizza with my favorite toppings--hamburger, green olives, onions, and pineapple. Delicious! For once, the chef didn't get my order wrong.
Reading List: Latest book to add to my reading list is: Deficit of Decency by Zell Miller.
Work: I spent today organizing the brochures that I am responsible for keeping track of and re-odering when they run low. They were in a real mess, since my predecessor in this job was promoted several months ago. It was nice to get that done.
Maybe I'll clean my living room next.
Uh-huh. "Dream on...Dream on..."
Braille: Practice in Braille grade two continues, and I think I am learning it well. Being able to use the version of it that I invented helps immensely, because I can practice it all day without need of a slate and stylus.
