morning all,
fully inspired to write to the list today, i have my
office window wide open and am enjoying the fact that
me over-riding the central heating system is probably
getting on people's nerves...excellent, life's small
pleasures. also reassured to read that people in
possession of that elusive thing called 'love' still
like their inbox to be filled with the chatterings of
random strangers (welcome back astrid!)...also jealous
to read of glaswegian picnic plans being a wegie
myself but one consigned to the wastelands of northern
scandinavia...only kidding its actually very nice,
especially this time of year, daylight is back in
style, hibernation over, mysteriously tanned
norwegians flooding the beer gardens...one of lifes
BIG mysteries...why do scandinavian people tan so
well? answers on a postcard to....blah. i'm just
deeply jealous as a genetically cursed scot, but hey,
you can't teach sarcasm...worth its weight in gold i'm
sure...So anyway, i'm very close to becoming one of
those people you read about in the sunday
supplements..."joe generic shuns high paid
professional career to don backpack and chase vague
unformed dream around the planet...says it was the
best thing he ever did but he's not so keen now on
playing recorder for a living on the royal mile...but
still, was the best thing he ever did, no
doubt"...anyway, thats gonna be me, for better or
worse. it was the perfect day to read the 'friends of
heroes' quote on the bottom of rachel's sinister
post..so thanks rachel! please drop money in the hat
when you walk by next year though...yep, the bearded
guy winging about living on the streets and not even
getting a tan to show for it...how he used to make a
fortune..blah, blah.... On the upside, despite never
having had the opportunity to attend a sinister
picnic, (did consider an igloo based option some time
in january - no more carrying the fridge to the park),
i can now just gatecrash a different picnic in a
different city in a different country on a different
continent every month...and if they don't do sinister
picnics in peru then i'll just darn well have one on
my own. AND, i'll report back. Ha!
take care amigos
