Just remembered what it was I wanted to say when I logged on. Synchronicity and stuff.
You know how life sometimes sends you what you’re looking for or asking for?
I was complaining recently about a dearth in my life of, among other things, romance and adventure. In a week or so, my wife and I will be driving a harp to France, taking the Alpine route through Austria, Switzerland and France. For those of you in the Southern hemisphere, it’s winter here right now. Adventure factors: Alps, winter, Doblo. Romance factors: harp, France, wife.
And I was thinking that I need a better home PC among other things, and the tech guy today told me about a used one he knew about, cheap. Not sure if I want it, but it’s very likely.
- Just for the record, here are a few more things I need, life: sex, Macallan’s single malt, a filling in that molar where the old one fell out, sex, a nice cello, a new suit, some clothes, a bookcase, a stereo, sex, literary mentors and muses, a laptop, a fat win in the lottery, a literary agent, sex, and a new shower head. Among other things.
Crossing the Alps in a Doblo? Uhm, better pack some elephants as well, just to be sure…
Just to beat anyone else to it, there’s always the Mac Mini ( http://www.apple.com ). Less than
Sex. Don’t you need sex? You’d better add sex to your wish list.
Dear Mig:
I’m on it.
#1! Yay!
Thanks Life. Horst: already, Oliver Stone has contacted me about film rights to the story of our trip, should we survive. Andy: I’ve been thinking about switching to Apple. I’m just so cheap and lazy. And I wouldn’t say “no tourists” in January, just no tourists with sense. And cj, of course. CJ: you don’t… you… but… that picture of you in the shower, toes that hot and you… pff. I’ve planned for ages now to take you out to lunch if I win the lotto. I’ll just take you out to lunch, but I won’t tell you I won the lottery, okay? Although I’ve probably blown it now by saying this. And: condoms, hrm. Maybe I’ll slip a few into her luggage. Karan: thanks for the reminder. Life: yes, excellent.
sounds good to me – what a great trip.
