I've just had the best afternoon at my friend Paul's house. He cooked a very tasty, spicy Mexican meal - made me think I should exert myself in the kitchen... which I don't 'cause it's just me and the dog at home... and opened a very delicious bottle of chocolate/coffee red wine from South Africa. High drinkability factor. So we ate and drank and chatted for five and a half hours while it poured rain outside and I rued the fact that I had hung a load of towels on the clothesline - but not enough to go and do anything about it.
Paul showed me his pictures of Capetown where he spends all of his holiday time each year (it is so beautiful there!) and I felt really inspired because for years I've wanted to go back to New York and do some more study and it has dawned on me recently that once I start teaching and earning a decent living I can do just that - spend all my holiday time in New York. And that is truly something to look forward to!
I felt like I was back in Newtown this afternoon, with nothing better to do than shoot the breeze. Good feeling. Bugger the towels.
