Mad, Bad and Dangerous to Know.

Awoke this morning with a feeling of optimism coupled with dread: how can two opposite emotions exist simultaneously in the same space?

Normal morning routine: orange juice, coffee, feeding the cats and now, during our school holidays, straight to the computer, back to the manuscript, Blog, reviews or the memoirs.

Spent the afternoon at a local pub reading chapter 10-12 to my friend over a good red wine; luckily, the place was empty, thus no inhibitions, reading freely as it was written. My friend is intrigued with the novel and continues to ask me to read the entire manuscript, which by the way, is not finished.

A good afternoon…

Returned home to find Lou preparing one of her better meals, burritos, one of my favourite dishes: absolutely a taste sensation that goes way beyond the normal fare, a true pleasurable experience.

An old friend walked through the door at dinner time and the entire atmosphere changed, drastically, but in a good way. An individual who fills the space as his view of the world is one of goodness coupled with extreme evil, a realist, but one who is ‘mad, bad and dangerous to know’. Something once said by Lady Caroline Lamb during her infatuation with the 19th century poet, Lord Byron.

True musings.

Emotional State: Confused yet Serene.
