Another Gorgeous British Sunrise!

This is what I see when I look out the window at approximately 8am. Somewhere there is a sun, but not here. It's the strangest thing. It's as if there is light without the sun which is a curious and thought-inducing phenomenon for someone who grew up in the Sunlight.

Oh and on a side note, we have surpassed the most depressing day of the year. Hope everyone made it out alive.

Public Polling

I'm back. We're back.

Two Sunday arrivals in a row. It's an exhausting taxi back from the airport to find a stark apartment with two dead poinsettias inside. They look frozen. I'm going to keep them for their withering effect and their symbolic representation of winter vegetation. (lame)

Moving on to better events, it's time for a public opinion poll on the continuation of my young years here with you all (ya'll for Geraud).*

The State of Now


So many words of frustration have been expressed over dinner that the only thing left to say is visual.


Here's hoping that they have been clearing airplane shaped spots out of this tundra that is Britain.
