Birthday blog
Yes, it's official. I am a quarter of a century old. and looking for a new place to live. What a jazzy life.
My birthday was spent doing laundry, reading anansi boys and watching TV. That was the morning, the afternoon I had lunch/dinner with a friend, who will appear in my memoirs one day as a split personality caracter, each personality named respectivly Glinda and Gollum.. you do the math on why! Needless to say the conversation was brisk and very benificial. Sometimes I think I should record them. Although it would be akward explaining that, 'no, I hadn't added a laught track, we really were laughing that much'
Evening was spent with friends in a pub like place. Havn't quite found a pub in the area that I like so pub-like is the closest I get.
It was nice. Monday I woke up and couldn't breath well, I was so congested. I finally caved in and realized I needed a new place to stay. Imediatly.
So I called L. and instituted my carefully laid back up plan, which has me and my clothes staying on my old sofa which is now in L. appartment. Feels like coming home. I've slept often on that couch. I feel better already, although the congestion is still lurking around the corner.
I also received my mothers package yesterday! Best package in the world! She'd made two calighraphy plaques and framed them in very sophisticated frames. I'm so in love with them, and they fit very well in my office.
Well, keep me in your prayers as I look for a new place!
hopefully I will be able to find a roommate, or a place cheap enough for me to do without.
Just finished The City and The City, by China Mieville, so very different from his other books! in case I had not mentioned, he's my new favorite living author. Yup, marxist socialist phd holder that he is, and only 33! I can look forward to many more books out of him :-) It's very nice to know that not all men I can admire are dead and mouldering in their graves!
(this one's across a continent and about several light klicks away from my philosophy, but it definitly beats dead. The circles are shrinking)
