While on an afternoon walk, I startled a bobcat lurking around one of the old abandoned houses on the property where I'm staying.  He stared at me in astonishment for a few moments and I caught him just as he slinked away.

My obsession with November weather continues.  This sleetsnow that came upon us yesterday with blustering winds and biting cold had me outside roaring King Lear to the heavens.

Brilliant scarlet leaves in morning sunshine on a beautifully frozen morning walk.  Some of the last color on the trees around here.

My idea of a perfect Sunday morning - a cup of hot tea and perhaps my favorite book of all time, Pride and Prejudice.  Oh Mr. Darcy, how I love you so.

Also, any P&P fans need this comic in their lives:

At a wonderful showing of Antony and Cleopatra last night, I saw this dress out in the lobby - it's a costume from Shakespeare's Cymbeline for one of my favorite characters, Imogen.  I saw myself so easily wearing this and playing that role.

It's a cold and melancholy November day.  Glad the weather is cooperating with my mood. 
There's something satisfying about being lonely and having the rain reflect it.
