nightdog_barksJust outside, refilling the sunflower seed bird feeder, and omg it is so MILD out. Weather site says it is 68 degrees (20 Celsius), and I believe it.
Watched the middle and end of the movie Nocturnal Animals the other night. Have any of you guys seen this? It's Jake Gyllenhaal and Amy Adams as this married couple, and then she dumps him and he writes a book and sends her the manuscript, and as she reads the manuscript the movie starts to follow both Jake and Amy's story AND the story of the couple in the book manuscript (Jake (in a double role) and another actress named Isla Fisher). AND! The book manuscript story is DARK and VIOLENT and GRIM, and oh did I mention it was DARK AND VIOLENT holy shit. Anyway, there's that, and a few other things, and then it was over and I was sitting there like WTF DID I JUST WATCH. It does have Michael Shannon in it (as a hard-bitten Texas lawman) so there is that. Also it was directed by Tom Ford, so parts of it are very ... arty, and there is at least one legitimately terrifying "jump scare" involving a cell phone.
In other news, I am a bit more than three-quarters of the way through the Laura Ingalls Wilder bio. It is a long book, chiclets. A long book.
