Lazy, lazy day

Thursday, such a lazy day. It’s been raining all day today. Got up late, went to the city to do a few things, browsed the bookstores, wandered around, got rained on.

No books tickled my fancy. Finding most of the science books are too basic for my taste. There were a couple of interesting books, one on quantum field theory was quite nice, but way too expensive (and available at the university library). Couldn’t justify the expense for a book I might not get round to reading anytime soon.

Thought about going back to work. Getting pretty lean on the cash. Much prefer to sit around and do mathematics. Life is unstructured at the moment. I go to bed when I feel like it. I wake up when I feel like it. I don’t have to do anything at all if I don’t feel like it.

Winter is coming. This is the time of the year I like sleeping in even more than usual.

Thankful

I have a roof over my head.
I have food in my belly.
I have cigarettes.
I have something to be passionate about.

… and most of all, Ms Misery Guts is making someone else miserable

Autumn

The sun is sprinting northward away from the equinox. The days are warm and the night air has a cool edge. Above, the sky is clear and pale and blue. It’s quiet here. The breeze tips dead leaves from the mango onto the dry brown earth. Will it see another spring.
