March comes in like a sponge! Rained a lot last night and today. The flowers are thankful.

Watched the movie Salo today with GH and his house guest, J. The film was difficult to watch--it is unrelenting. But, it helped to have watched a bit of it the other day and to "prepare" for today's showing. It is a masterful but disturbing work. It deserved the Chicago Film Critics designation as one of the scariest films (65th out of 100) to watch.

The interviews we watched last week helped set the context and mitigated the film's ferocity. Not sure I'll ever want to see it again. In some ways, I won't have to--the images are burnt into my retinas.

Dreamed last night something about three figures who were dressed in dark clothes. The whole dream revolved around those three images. The sense was that the three figures were not really solid and part of the dream scenes. They seemed to float over the surface of the scenes as if they were ghosts or specters.

Dance class in the morning. Then lunch and movie with the H's. The month of March begins.
