Jekyll and Hyde

Last night was very quiet. I ended up falling asleep on my couch, and woke up at about half past four in the morning, when I got to bed.

I went along to my parent's house today instead of my usual Sunday visit. We got my groceries on the way, along with some sushi for lunch. After lunch I listened to a radio play version of Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, based on the novel by Robert Louis Stevenson. The story is set in 19th Century London and involves a lawyer investigating the connection between his good friend, the quiet, respectable Dr Henry Jekyll and the violent, psychotic criminal Edward Hyde. It's pretty faithful to the book. Interestingly enough, the original pronounciation of Jekyll was "Jeek-el", instead of "Jeck-le" which is more commonly used. The idea was the title was supposed to be a pun on the game "Hide and Seek".

When I got home, as I was taking a box of nachos out of the bag, the bottom fell out sending cheese, salsa and sour cream all over my kitchen floor.

It's kind of fun when I go to my parent's house on the Saturday, because it means that I have the whole of the Sunday to do whatever I want, really.
