eerie

I couldn't get to sleep for a while after reading Sherlock Holmes Was Wrong. In high school I read probably 75% of every case Doyle ever wrote for the guy, and had to read The Hound of the Baskervilles for 8th grade English I believe. So the book is about, not just this one case (the Hound), but a bit pomo with the reality of literary characters and such. Doyle killed off Holmes at one point, but the public outcry was so great that he brought him back, while hating him, and the author of this book reasons that's why he made him fuck up the solution to HotB. But reading about murdering murderers in bed at midnight on a Saturday kinda made me afraid to fall asleep.

Other than that... We watched Hamlet 2 and it's utterly amazing, to the point where I am upset that there weren't more deleted scenes and extras. Coogan plays a failed actor cum drama teacher with such aplomb that I really felt like I was back in high school. And Catherine Keener as his frustrated wife reminded me so much of my mom before she got a divorce. I mean, it was a comedy but to me it felt so dead-on in so many ways, it could almost be considered a drama.
