there was no lead here I had to follow
I have been having the most intense dreams - or rather vivid. The other night I had one where everyone had these strange orange eyes. Even I had them when I looked int he mirror. Felt kinda post-apocalyptic. And last night, I was staying somewhere - at a B&B near a beach. The colours in the sky weren't quite right, steely grey and orange, and the water was stormy. We could see the back of the town, all white and yellow and slightly derelict. I recall going down a corridor to find someone, only to realise they were already gone. The place we were staying didn't have a proper carrot peeler, so I went to one of the markets in the town to find one. I did and took it back, and showed someone how the carrot was actually layered like an onion. We're out on the patio and a storm is coming in. We just watch it come even though there's a good chance it will wash the building away.
Yes, a carrot peeler.
Also: read an amazing book at work - the whole thing, actually. Called Crystallography, by Christian Bök. I could not put it down, or even blink it was that good. I doubt I would have had the same reaction a couple of years ago, but such is the way of poetry books. Anyway, blown away as I was, I have to recommend it. Just walk in with an open mind.
listening to: Collide - Transfer
eating: leftover Chinese from Forum
reading: Wrestling the Angel - Robin Skelton
today's project: floors
feeling: introspective
