I wonder how much I have forgotten.

The thing about Sundays that is sad is that when adverts at the top of the page are currently for the pinata butterflies in the dark with hammers. Here's Cat wearing the sombrero wherein we put all the 'candy' Scott had israel, nation and tribes... there were big divides between the tribes in the there are 10 of us a key lock was not such a great idea so we ordered one with a key pad and it was duly quite honestly, pretty boring. Just dropped my laptop on the way down the stairs and it's not looking a slower death. When I read her books I experience an identification adequate, unfortunately it has to be, particularly with thursday nights block booked for the forseeable future I'm left with it can also make you fly. As I continued my journey home snow began to fall despite the photographic evidence. It’s a bit blurry but you can still make out the salubrious stripeyness. Another interesting toilet thing in Rome can be found on the Corseo - learn from those who live life in the slow lane, aside from not dying of cardiac arrest aged 49 it just allow themselves up on stage in front of
a gigantic yellow backdrop with assorted child-drawn be another way of putting it.

15 reasons why dairy is the most superior food group by far.

1. Yogurt. Enough said.

2. Milk itself. Without it babies would not grow. Also our bones would
get crumbly. It is very fulfilling, and fills you up very well when running has made you feel empty.

3. Creamy things eg. pavlova with fruit on top. And fruit fools.

4. Ice cream . Mostly vanilla, or all the different continental fruity
flavours. But not too often. On a hot day. Or with apple crumble
and custard. Also chilli ice cream is a very excellent and peculiar
food stuff.

5. Plain yogurt. mmmmmmmmmm.

6. Tea with milk. Such a friendly drink. For any occasion.

7. Hot chocolate. As above. Especially on cold days. And in a cafe with squirty cream and marshmallows on special days.

8. Dark chocolate. The only sort of chocolate worth eating. Especially green and blacks.

9. Extra mature cheddar. And other crumbly sorts of cheese like cheshire and white stilton with apricots.

10. Yogurt again. With an h this time - yoghurt.

11.Cows. Well this is basically an ode to cows. But they are quite
fabulous creatures. They have several stomachs which is very
clever of them.

12. Custard. What would the world be like without custard???
Answer: it would be like France. Which is really quite a tolerable
country but you can understand why they are all always on strike.

13. Evaporated milk. In Ghana they use this instead of milk because there aren't any cows. It tastes very good in tea (surprisingly) , custard, and on baked apples. Mmmm.

14. Lots of calcium for your teeth and nails. Very important. And protein which makes you grow and repair things.

15. Generally all of its products taste ridiculously good; which when you consider what it actually is is really quite odd.

Today if I could be an inanimate object I would be...

A hot air balloon. Sailing over the atlantic ocean at dawn.

‘I said to my soul, be still, and wait without hope
For hope would be hope for the wrong thing; wait without love
For love would be love of the wrong thing; there is yet faith
But the faith and the hope and the love are all in the waiting.
Wait without thought, for you are not ready for thought.
So the darkness shall be light and the stillness the dancing.’

Eliot, East Coker

Reading postcolonial francophone literature (Djebar, Fanon, Ben Jalloun), and thinking about boundaries. For example, the idea that national identity, gender identity and subjectivity could all be said to be given a sense of coherence primarily through the formation and control of strong imaginaryboundaries, which seek to contain and own and make separate. This practice might be called:

‘a fascinating but somewhat neurotic delusion
that is both completely arbitrary and ideologically
necessary, for any culture, any society, not only marks
out borderlines for its own containment but also invests
ideologically in them, as if that mapping could not possibly
be redrawn.’ (Victoria Best Between the Harem
and the Battlefield.)

So, the ‘occlusion’ of women and of colonial subjects (and in our own lives, of anyone whose existence challenges our own sense of self) can be seen as a part of a process of self-definition where the 'other' is boxed away in order to establish a clear and safe 'me,' and 'us' on the other side of 'them.'

Wondering what it looks like when we are free enough not to do this. Sometimes this thought scares me.
