I woke with a mild headache that hasn't at all gone away today. gra_is_stor came over at my request and we watched Howl's Moving Castle and The Musgrave Ritual from the Granada Sherlock Holmes series. I did some laundry and finished up the lamb and chickpea curry. I'm about to crawl off to bed and hope that the headache goes away before tomorrow, as she would like to take me out to a steampunk ball tomorrow evening down in Edmonds. I have no idea if I'll be up to it or not.

Of course, I remember Howl's very vividly; but, I can't seem to recall what in the world "The Musgrave Ritual" was about...it's one of those ones, certainly, that would perk my interest simply by the title, but I suspect there may have been some let-down as it progressed in watching. Damn my Young Sherlock Holmes early exposure! ;)

The Musgrave Ritual involves one of Holmes's old schoolmates, a brilliant butler, and a treasure hunt based on a Musgrave family ritual.

Oh, okay...it might be coming back to me now. And, didn't Holmes sort of lead them in the wrong way around a series of directions on the property initially?

No, he never leads them off on a false trail, but he does initially come to an incorrect conclusion about what's in the bag.

Okay...then, I don't think I remember it clearly enough.

Oh well. Maybe some other time...

I am not sure if headache + movie = peace. I can barely read in low light with a headache...

It wasn't that kind of a headache, thankfully. When I have those, I hardly bother getting out of bed except to take the dog out. I can function through a headache, it has to be near blinding before I'll go to bed for the day.
