It is a slow month. Almost every time I start to read, and listen to Esben and the Witch, I fall asleep (6 hours out of 12 on Thursday night, 12 out of 12 on Friday night). The music has been transferred from phone to mp3 in the hope that I can listen to it better when commuting. I'm almost halfway through the book so I am not keen on buying the audio version, especially as it has been abridged.
I have shook up my daily routine to add a bit of variety but too lazy to be radical so here goes week 1:-
Tues 1 - shiny black/black&red
Wed 2 - End of Year of the Tiger - shiny red/shiny tiger
Thurs 3 - Start of Year of the Rabbit - black/lace red
Fri 4 - purple/lace purple
(Sat 5 - green/velvet red)
(Sun 6 - brown/shiny aubergine)
If I don't fall back into my lazy ways, and I already have organised the second part, I should be able to complete February, or Mon-Fri each week at a push. Call it a small success to do something different every day.
My mind whirred on the way home on Friday with thoughts, dreams, memories and even tears brought on with the random music on the mp3, however I did add each song myself. Like the Pensieve in Harry Potter, I need a repository for my thoughts. I am no bard with wisdom to spread but perhaps akin to J.D Salinger's need to express mundane things and, in agreement with this article, diaries, letters and blogs are a kind of performance, designed to achieve a particular effect. So perhaps I will go offline, to get things out of my system and lock them away in my own pensieve, my compartments, again?
