Cotton

I looked up at the sky today; looks like God's vanilla-flavoured cotton candy maker has gone out of control.

Email

I send her email, and she replies to me from my computer.

Serendipity

Serendipity is six feet of sheep's wool.

Life in Suggan Buggan

So...I was reading this book by Bill Bryson called Down Under, and came across a list of places, which Bryson says, are all real locations in Australia. Not taking Bryson at his word, I ran searches on a few of them just to confirm. Turns out Bryson's right. How are these for some fantastic names of towns: Wee Waa, Poowong, Burrumbuttock, Suggan Buggan, Boomahnoomoonah, Waaia, Mullumbimby, Ewlyamartup, Jiggalong and Tittybong. I can imagine introducing myself as 'David from Burrumbuttock', or talking about my town, Tittybong, and getting slapped for acting fresh!

These hills have horses

The other day I saw three horses ganging up against a lone motorcycle, and harassing it, much to the chagrin of the owner. Some difference of opinion about horsepower, I reckon.

Santa Claus

Calvin: Well. I've decided I do believe in Santa Claus, no matter how preposterous he sounds.
Hobbes: What convinced you?
Calvin: A simple risk analysis. I want presents. Lots of presents. Why risk not getting them over a matter of belief? Heck, I'll believe anything they want.
Hobbes: How cynically enterprising of you.
Calvin: It's the spirit of Christmas.

The truth about Cecilia

I guess some know this already, but yeah, the whole thing was a lovely, lovely dream...the most realistic one I've had in a while. The name was suggested by my friend, who felt 'Cecilia' suited the character. Interestingly, I bought a flute recently, which says Cecilia on it. I hope that's not all my dream signified...kissing the flute, as I must, to play upon it.
