I uploaded to YouTube my photo-video of the parody by Serge Gainsbourg of “Que je t’aime” (That I Love You).
I then added the video to my Christian’s Translations post of the song and published it. I posted my translation on Facebook.
I then used Clip Grab to download the YouTube video of “Ça”, which is a parody of the Serge Gainsbourg song “Je t’aime. Moi non plus (I Love You. Neither Do I)”. I then uploaded the video to Sonix to get a transcript, which I copied. Gainsbourg himself co-wrote the parody with Marcel Mithois. The joke is that instead of the almost pornographic lyrics between a couple making love, an older couple is engaged in a more domestic conversation. In this case the man declares love while the woman is concerned with practical matters. Tomorrow I’ll start translating it. It’s not really a song so maybe I won’t bother memorizing it.
I made coffee but didn’t drink it. I put it in the fridge so I could have iced coffee in the evening.
I painted the second coat of the “crazy in love” pink hue on the outside half of one of the four floral reliefs on my future bathroom mirror frame. On Friday I’ll do at least one more outside half.
I weighed 91.25 kilos before lunch. I had peanut butter and five-year-old cheddar with a glass of lemonade.
I weighed 89.4 kilos at 17:50, which is the lightest I’ve been in the evening since June 3.
I worked on getting caught up in my journal.
It was too hot to use the stove and so I just has a slice of multigrain sandwich bread with cream cheese, five-year-old cheddar and potato chips. I had it with a glass of Creemore while watching season 1, episode 6 of Wednesday with my daughter Astrid on Discord.
The story begins with Wednesday trying to call forth the spirit of Goody Addams to be her guide but her séance is interrupted by Enid. Then a mysterious note is slid under the door telling her to meet at Crackstone’s crypt at midnight. She goes there only to find that it’s a surprise birthday party being thrown for her. She learns that Thing tipped Enid and Xavier that it was her birthday. She does not appreciate the gesture but then notices that the writing on the hearth is the same as that which was recently burned on the school lawn: “Fire Will Rein”. When she touches the fireplace she has a vision and connects with Goody Addams who warns her that Crackstone is returning. Bianca meets the mayor’s son Lucas while he is doing community work to atone for his part in sabotaging the Nevermore dance. He is wearing a bracelet that he got from her mother’s company and she tells him it’s a scam. They get together later at the café. Ms. Thornhill gives Wednesday a copy of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. The principal revokes Wednesday’s off-campus privileges but she arranges for a date with Tyler and brings Enid along under the pretense of redoing her birthday party. But Wednesday takes them to explore the Gaines mansion where they are attacked by the monster and Tyler is injured. I nonetheless think that Tyler is actually the monster. Enid is so upset by Wednesday’s manipulations that she moves out of their shared room.
Ms. Thornhill is played by Christina Ricci, who played Wednesday Addams in the first two film adaptations of The Addams Family. Her father was a primal scream therapist who worked from home. She attended The Professional Children’s School in New York. She was discovered by a theatre critic who saw her in a school production of The Twelve Days of Christmas. He suggested to her parents that they get her a manager. That led to some commercial work before she made her film debut in Mermaids in 1990. She co-starred in The Ice Storm, Buffalo 66, Pecker, Desert Blue, 200 Cigarettes, Bless the Child, The Laramie Project, Love Your Work, Sleepy Hollow, Anything Else, Monster, Home of the Brave, Speed Racer, After.Life, Bucky Larson, Bel Ami, War Flowers, Percy, Here After, Guns Up, She starred in Casper, Golddiggers: the Secret of Bear Mountain, Little Red Riding Hood, That Darn Cat, The Opposite of Sex, Pumpkin, The Gathering, Black Snake Moan, Prozac Nation, The Man Who Cried, Now and Then, Miranda, Cursed, Penelope, Around the Block, Ten Things We Should Do Before We Break Up, Distorted, Monstrous, and The Dresden Sun. She hosted Saturday Night Live in 1999. She starred in the series The Lizzie Borden Chronicles, Pan Am, Z: the Beginning of Everything ( which she co-produced), . She co-starred in the last season of Ally McBeal, the series Yellowjackets, She won an Enny in 2006 for her guest appearance on Grey’s Anatomy. She is the voice of Catwoman in the animated series Batman: Caped Crusader. She made her Broadway debut in Time Stands Still in 2010. She did a vocal for Beck’s song “Hell Yes”.
