My Best Friend in London


I know, I'm lame but you wouldn't believe it. Have I always been so spoiled? Honestly, how does the cliche go, "You don't know what you got 'til it's gone?" Well amen. This little fellow, whom you see as just a humble, boring, simple coffee mug, *as I anticipate many of you feel this way about me* is so much more. This guy acts as my water glass, potato chip bowl, soup bowl, and wine glass. Yes, he is a well traveled, talented, multiculturalist. He adapts and does each job well enough to get by *as I anticipate many of you feel this way about me.* I was planning on throwing him out so I didn't have to pack him, but if you can't tell by my picture taking, paint touch-ups, and babbling in this blog, I have grown quite fond of him. Name suggestions anyone? Again, there is not much to report. I kind of took it easy this weekend. I finished off Of Mice and Men, started Farewell to Arms, went through a list of things I had to do while here, did some work for the Pillar and am know enjoying a sub-par glass of Shiraz. But hey, it's not because of the glass. I planned on going to the Sigmund Freud Museum today but, being Sunday, the hours were limited and it's a 40 minute train ride. Until next time, I promise something more exciting will happen. Cheers.

So now you can tell me about the rabbits? What else are you planning to read?

I'll tell you about the rabbits, on the bank of a river, with a gun in my hand. Just kidding, I love you. I started Farewell to Arms. So far so good. Did you move yet?

You're going to love "Farewell to Arms," Matt! I read it in Spain, on my honeymoon. And I haven't read a better book yet--ten years running. It's great to see your picture and read your musings. Hello to Ahmed for me. Cheers!
