Supping What

Hello again, for the sake of the one righteous man the Lord turns away his wrath, so for the sake of the one righteous woman I will continue to blog! And even for myself, for I do enjoy pontificating in a way that doesn't hurt anybody. The big news is that I have passed my mid-way evaluation or progress report for my PhD, and so now I'm allowed to write it up and offer it for perusal and passing. One more year should do it, i just have to dig around the fig tree a bit more and shove in lots of good manure to help it grow! Bear fruit or die ...

I'll not go on, as I've got five minutes before I'm supping up the cappuccino and off to the train. Suffice it to say, I'm inspired enough to start writing again and not worry that no one reads other than you Fionnuala! and one or two people who keep their identity a closely guarded secret, being beautiful and delicate wall flowers that only bloom unseen at night. But I believe in their existence, much like the sprites of a Mid Summer's Night Dream. Anyway, time's up so sup up!

Ah!I knew if I waited patiently all would work out! Welcome back Steinway - I am a creature of habit for I had still been clicking on my 'fallowfield' link in the hope that it would spring back into life again!!!
Congrats on passing your mid-way thingy - that's excellent news Doctor-to-be. I was just thinking of you a little earlier while I tidied your room! Anyone else reading this may be a little concerned at this point! Anyway - good to have you back and I look forward to 'the meet' soon. Take care and Vit C. F.

That was darned faithful-friend of you, Fionnuala. I'm a creature of habit myself. I suppose this is handier than emails anyway, at least it's better than those ones we don't get round to making! I hope you're well. Hope to meet up soon then, over the half-term Hallowe'en break, though I know this doesn't really exist for you.

I've been a bit inspired towards poetry again recently and may even write one or two soon. I warn you in advance. So that's the kind of thing you'll see, if you don't break this bad habit of clicking on to ff. So here I am, sprung forth and raring to go - throw me a ball and I'ld head it. I'll get back with some more poetic gymnastics soon. Ecco me, sensa Vit C. I'm out of it. Talk soon.

But I'm afraid instead of Italian I'm going to go all francophile for a time, as I've been told i need proficiency for my PhD so I begin my night class tonight. Alors, je te dit au revoir pour maintenant.

Le Paix.
