Sleep Before Waking

Second round of school declaration. (I like to keep you all involved in my day to day discoveries, because otherwise, what would you know of me?

Nothing.

Well, you do know nothing of me, that’s beside the point. I rather like it that way, but I digress…

The first assignment for Shakespeare 101 was to read Richard III. (A play I hate due to my own well versed knowledge of the War of the Roses and the deaths of young Prince Edward and the Duke of York. I loved the play and the language is breathtaking, but everybody dies. Everybody! Watching them as characters makes their deaths all the more disturbing when you know the details.)

So, the bastard was a hunchback sociopath. Point taken, but the play had one of those epic scenes that made my teeth sweat (and inspired my inner director. I knew exactly who in my life I would cast as the characters, instantly).

I share that scene for fun and frolic…and because I feel bad I haven’t posted in so effing long.

I am trying to catch up, I fear.

ENJOY!
