Jan. 30th, 2011 07:04 amOh, the midwinter doldrums, how they cling to all things, shakeably persistant and eternally present! If I were at home, I'd take my men for a foxhunt, but I know that we're all quite above such pastural amusements here in the East, aren't we?
Nevertheless, I insist that I seek out some stimulation! Eliza, Anita, my lovlies, please save your boorish peer from shrivelling away and winking out of existance. I insist we seek out some entertainment, tomorrow night, the three of us. I suppose your charming husband may be invited as well, Eli, though you must tell him to smile a little more, he's such a terrible wet blanket whenever I try to include him.
Anything! A play, a ballet, an opera. I'd settle for an evening in the parlour playing cribbage, so long as wine was flowing, but please, just do not let me go to bed another week with the snow sucking my soul out!
