Taking the evening off to go to "The King's Speech" after grading this morning and starting to look through letters from 25 years ago -- such a strange and wonderful process. I am so lucky to have kept all the letters and cards people sent me over the years. Trying, in reading them now, to watch myself from a distance and understand my particular attachments and detachments.
Started Joyce Johnson's memoir about her life with the Beats. Her teenage desires and hang-ups are strangely (or not so strangely) similar to mine. Plus ca change, as the saying is, plus c'est la meme chose (add your own accents!).
What did you think of The King's Speech? I loved it!
