Last night Annie came over and we watched the first part of the Hornblower episode, "The Mutiny." I love Hornblower! I love the actor that portrays him, I love the character, and I love the studies on human nature. I really like this particular episode even though it is about injustic, and athority that is wrong and insane becuase you see so much about the moral fabric of each character. Buckland is a wet noddle who is more concerned with keeping his own hide safe than righting wrong; Hornblower is restricted by his overwhelming sense of duity and his desire to see justic done; a lot of what Hornblower struggles with is how can he possibly fulfill his duity to the upmost. Bush steps into a bad situation, and has to chose between Buckland's aproach and standing up for the right, and Kenedy has to make some hard choices about sacrifice and seeing justic served. (sniff. I love Kenedy!) It is so true that when the rubber hits the road is when you see what someone is really made of. There are lessons to be learned everwhere!
Today is the symphony; Annie drove me over. I feel so lucky to have such a good friend! I hope to get to know Elise better today. She seems like such a neat person! That is all my profound thoughts for today. More later!
