I reading this book at the moment,
it's one of those "throw you in at the deep end" ones with a very alien world, hundreds of new creatures, places and concepts to comprehend. I'm enjoying it, but it's quite hard work. Do you love it when words you've never seen written down before appear regularly? The last time this happened for me was Umberto Eco I think, had to keep a notebook.
Might have to pick up something more relaxing today for when I'm tired.

Had a cool dream last night. I was at school/university in an English lesson. The female teacher was jumping from subject to subject, asking questions and then not letting anyone answer and basically not providing a very coherent lesson, which was annoying me. Suddenly she said she was going to show us a film which cheered me up.

It was projected onto a big white screen at the back of the room, it was Siouxsie Sioux and Budgie singing a song I'd never heard before, in a refectory somewhere. Siouxsie was wearing a lemon coloured minidress with a peach cardigan draped around her shoulders and Budgie was looking super cute. They were both really young, teenagers I think. There was some screaming at the end, kind of punky, but that's all I remember. In the dream, I was singing along, entranced by the song and decided that the teacher wasn't so bad after all.



Wonder if it exists? Siouxsie can even look good in yellow velvet, what a woman.

I used to wear a yellow kimono -ish robe that I bought because of a character in an Iris Murdoch novel who wore one and because I'd read somewhere babies focus on yellow and I was having my first baby & wanting to do it all properly so took that kind of thing oh-so-seriously (son number 2 getting any such considerations!)

I'd never read that babies like yellow, I did find black less practical than before with small babies as I was constantly covered in possets of first milk then fromage frais, or so it seemed!

I bet you looked gorgeous in it.
