Today I went to see Dr. Hassan. He told me that in Arab countries a bereaved family can hire a professional wailer!
I read over sixty pages of THE OLD CURIOSITY SHOP today. In the most recent part Little Nell has been working for a travelling waxworks, presenting verbose descriptions of the figures. (One is of Lord Byron and makes schoolgirls swoon.)
Donald came over and suggested getting a V.P.N. so we can get the American version of Netflix with its far wider selection. We may be ending our satellite TV subscription so I think I'll buy an antenna to receive HDTV broadcasts as far away as Buffalo.
This evening I saw TWENTY FEET FROM STARDOM at the Bloor. It's a documentary about backup singers and their career aspirations. Lisa Fischer was pretty stunning! It was a sneak preview to raise money for Big Life, a charity that protects elephants and giraffes from poachers in eastern Africa.
I've sent an email to Bereaved Families of Toronto inquiring about their services. I imagine they'll have sessions for bereaved people to get together.
Yesterday this blog got a record 163 pageviews!
