Myth Happens

When I got home from my frozen stagger through the snow-shuttered streets of Somerville (bank, groceries), I found a package from handful_ofdust in the mailbox. I was carrying three plastic bags and could no longer feel my hands; fortunately it was a compact flat package and I could stick it under one arm along with the payment from Goblin Fruit and a wedding card from friends of the family. I had to thaw out my fingers before I could unlace my boots. The apple cider sorbet I had brought home for derspatchel had not melted at all. We ate some fudge. I opened my package.

handful_ofdust sent me Peter Cushing: A Life in Film (2013) by David Miller. It is full of photographs and anecdotes and THAT'S A PICTURE OF PETER CUSHING AS ANDREW CROCKER-HARRIS FROM THE BBC'S 1955 ADAPTATION OF THE BROWNING VERSION HOLY BLAP GEMMA THIS BOOK HAS JUST EARNED ITS PASSAGE THANK YOU.

(My e-mail's still dead. But I have a new book. I can deal.)
