Pis-en-Lit: The author is pleased to report that the dandelions are gathering in full force. He candidly admits that he has for a longtime held closeted pro-weed sentiments ; starting today he will stand by them in public solidarity, and will hopefully not trample too many in doing so.
The Future: Is
still unpredictable, last time the author checked.
Novelty: When
advice is given to him, the author, on rare occasions, will follow it... for
the novelty of the thing.
Ebriosus: The
author heard himself saying in conversation that when he is drunk, he adopts
“completely the opposite personality” to his own. On reflection, he wonders
about the order of causation regarding drunkeness and the polarization of
personality type. But, shortly after, he stopped caring.
A sheer delight: On
Sunday afternoon the author took a walk along the river. The wind was cold,
frequent, and made the swollen river choppy with “whitecaps”. Like the Heron in La Fontaine's fable, he wasn't about to snack on just anything, but kept his beak in the air until he got to a real treat; he only stopped
walking when the waves hit the rocks with noticeable emphasis. The path was
empty, and he wondered at the neighbours for staying indoors. At the same time,
a single other person in sight would have reduced to tinsel the effect of the
whole moment. He thought he would call it sublime instead of beautiful because
beauty comforts but the sublime has always got something terrible and cold in
it too.
What is admirable: According
to the author, a solid boredom without
restlnessness is admirable.
The Hosses: He
took another walk and saw some horses. The author envied them for their tendency
to stand so still, until one of them looked at him funny.
