Something Like an Update

Written on Saturday 28 Jan 2006

It’s been a while since I’ve posted here - looks like exams and other concerns really have stolen all my free time. So, here’s what’s going on at the moment. A Weekend Apart and Together Last weekend Eric came to visit for her birthday. All well and good, and we...

Morning from the Other Side

Written on Saturday 21 Jan 2006

This is the first time in a long time that I’ve seen morning from the just-got-up rather than the not-gone-to-bed-yet side. It’s a strangely wonderful feeling, as though I actually had forgotten what the sights, sounds and smells of morning are. I guess, though, over the next week, I’ll have...

Ouch

Headache OF THE YEAR desu~. Woke up at 6am after 3 hours’ sleep with a headache so bad I could barely think and feeling sick. I had no painkillers at all, so I lay around in bed waiting for either Mark to get up or for the pharmacist to open....

Once More the Melancholy Music Plays (Harmony)

Written on Wednesday 11 Jan 2006

Once more, let the melancholy music play; Once more, once more… Once more, we return and here we stay; Once more, once more… Once more, long past the fading of the day; Once more, once more… The atmosphere here is swirling, there’s no such thing as being able to step...

Forward Once More (Melody)

Written on Friday 6 Jan 2006

Rucksack packed full of clothes, books and papers in the two satchels slung one over each shoulder, water bottle in its pouch and umbrella in its belt scabbard. Sleeping bag tied on, rolled up tent tied on, frying pan tied on. Music playing, alarm set, door locked. It’s time to...

Frozen in Time (Harmony)

Written on Saturday 31 Dec 2005

The streetlight by my front door flickers into red, pauses, and slowly begins its ascent into orange as the city around it descends into darkness. The sky fades from blue, to navy, to black. It’s the end of another year, as colour washes out of the landscape and all the...

Sanity's Requiem, Epilogue: The End of Autumn

Written on Saturday 17 Dec 2005

Twenty-two days ago, as the afternoon twilight fell across the city, the universe’s discordant orchestra started to play, and the dance began. November’s winds blew chill through our hearts, and our search for warmth pulled the world out of shape as we whirled and jumped on the ballroom floor. In...

The Mixed Blessings of Worlds Away from Home

Written on Friday 16 Dec 2005

Whisky should perhaps not be regarded as a good substitute for sleep. I’m not sure what yesterday actually did, and despite a friend’s intentions I don’t think it did much. I visited a nice place (except for the forest) and met nice people, and I would love to visit again....

Once More With Doom-like Feeling

Written on Thursday 15 Dec 2005

Meh, and there was me thinking for a while that I was fixed again. The last few days have been fun, they really have. And then tonight, humans started to annoy me again. And then Little Andy started to annoy me. Deliberately. And pushed me all the way. Ah, Sundancer,...

Gah! Damn Humans

Written on Saturday 10 Dec 2005

It would be a lie if I were to say that I was in control. I guess, really, I never have been. Not three years ago, not a year ago, and not now either. I’ve finally realised what I’ve been mising over these past two weeks, a major factor in...
