back from a week in the alps skiing!
yes, that's right. I, of vertiginous tendencies, adoring of sun and sea and beach, of feet-on-the-ground, of faffing, mooching, and all the like... I skied. I ski. I am a skier...
aside from the occasional edge-of-the-mountain trepidation, I must say that this has been one of the best weeks I've had in a while now.
also, beyond the ski-notes, I also caught a bit of a tan (mediteranean stock: paleness = melancholia) and also ascended the highest mount in europe - that of Mont Blanc, which, at around four and a half kilometres high, stands at twice the height of my highest peak so far (the Polish Tatras).
the only thing missing was Dan. I do miss him.
essentially it was the whole group, sans him. Our other two best friends, one girlfriend, and even his little sister.
But at least our sadness was no longer grief.
It was a missing. That's all...
So tell me folks; I missed you: what have you been doing?
On even more other notes,
I'm trying to squeeze out of the bar industry, and am applying for a job as a yoga receptionist...
How strange?
And I have a new idea for something to write. I can feel it growing inside me, fleshing out, becoming real, gestating...
But I have an MA to be doing! 7 more months!
... I wonder if it will last or join the other stack of books in Lucien's library?
Hugs to all.
Kisses to some.
Spanks to the few and far between.

Ski trip sounds good... and I'm glad things are getting back tyo normal for you.
Are you going to Ms Rain's birthday drinks? Would be great to catch up.
My laptop died and I couldn't reply to your last message until now or pass on a message from Nell. She says hi and she would like to see you, do you still have her number?
Skiing hey? Very posh, ha I would be crap at that. You should come to Cornwall, it has many hidden charms you know your Ma is a canny woman.
