One moment

March 23, 2008

In between one moment and the next, having run out of time to do work, or prepare the ground, or make a difference, this evening shall be spent in deep, indulgent, excessive contemplation. The long weekend was pleasant - Bones, Monocle, relishing the feeling of letting oneself go, mornings and afternoons spent in the pleasant pursuit of a languor that somehow eluded us both. There be dreams in the making.

Before we jump

March 22, 2008

Food, naturally, after a month’s worth of occasional photos, spoilt lenses, obligations, erstwhile friends and happy dreams. There will be time to balance talk of the here and now. Oh, and: Werner’s Oven, Borgos, Ghim Moh. Yum.
