Mornings...

Things I saw on my morning walk along the beach:


  • A gorgeous orange and purple starfish.
  • a pretty row of bluebottles, strung out along the tide line.
  • The sun rising through glorious pink clouds...

Things I thought on my morning walk:

  • Crap this sand is soft. My calves hurt.
  • Hurty calves are a Good Thing, remember.
  • Geez I'm glad I'm walking at 5:30am, because it's getting hotter by the minute.

Things I pondered while walking back to my house:

  • If people are going for a morning walk, why do they have to drive to the beach, instead of walking to it...?
  • How long is it going to take that decomposing rabbit to reduce to a skeleton...?
  • Why was that woman doing a morning walk in full make-up, accessories and a long pink 2 piece outfit...?



Am feeling chirpy and chipper and thoroughly at peace with the world.

I'm not expecting this to last.

Good luck ruining the rest of your day, Nic.
The best way to attract bad shit is to anticipate it...

Thanks for your concern fingers, but it's actually still fine. Which is pleasantly surprising...
See, I figure, if I expect things to get worse, then I'm not disappointed when they do. If, however, everything stays fine and sunny, then it's a massive bonus!

fingers - why are you on the puter instead of sitting out on the balcony with a glass of wine. It's what any sensible Forex trader with a kick-arse office shoul be doing today... And that way you can keep your eye on any wayward planes.

mex - Ta babe! Happy is good. For everyone. Now email me and tell me what's new.

My old flatmate used to put on a full fae of makeup (dancer style pancake makeup with eyeliner and everything) before going for a job.

Freak.
