Sally Menke, a film editor who worked closely with Tarantino, found dead.
Played with Kaylee. Sun came out, and I walked on my feet and heard with my ears. I ate the bits, the bits stayed down, and I work. I function like I'm a girl. I hate it because I know it'll go away. The sun goes dark and chaos has come again. Bits. Fluids. What am I?!

I had no idea, until after reading news reports earlier today, that LA had been so hot. 113 degrees the day she died.

Yeah, it was a billionty degrees out yesterday, and the only thing keeping or just shy of a billionty today is cloud cover.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Yes, I was on the way to the library thinking, "it's much nicer than yesterday, I can't even feel my eyeballs drying out." Then the sun came out from behind the clouds. I'm staying here for a while. I can't even conceive of going hiking yesterday. It was an effort walking across a parking lot.

I remember what I believe was a Hammer Frankenstein flick, and the image I remember is of a woman covering up the scar connecting her head to her body with a choker, and she was wearing an empire-waist dress at a ball, so it was probably set in the Regency period when the book was written. Any ideas on which movie that might be?
That was a made-for-TV miniseries of Frankenstein: The true story
eta: and of course, Frankenbudda beat me to it! that's what I get for skipping ahead!

Oooh, my memory was right. It was Jane Seymour who played that version of the bride. I meant to check imdb yesterday but got sidetracked.

OMG, you're right! That fits with what I remember. Thanks for that IMDB link--there were a lot of big names in that cast, from James Mason to a pre-Doctor Who Tom Baker.

That scene with the head pulling? Stays with me.
It was a very pretty production.
