today i shall be mostly getting my hair cut...i last got my it chopped on 31 december 2005, which makes this is my first haircut of the year. can't wait. today i shall be asking my stylist, the lovely sonja at Cube beside george's market, for "a cut with attitude!"

i hope wherever you are that you are that the sun is shining and the sky is blue like it is here... so beautiful.. with the momentary fleeting and tiniest flurries of snow falling like confetti and disappearing as soon as they hit the ground...

i am still awestruck by the incredibleness of this quote from the harbour of ourselves yesterday...

"And the angel says to him, doctor, without your wounds, where would your power be? it is your melancholy that makes your lower voice tremble into the hearts of men and women, the very angels in heaven cannot persuade the wretched and blundering children of this earth as can one human being broken on the wheels of living...in love's service, only wounded soldiers can serve...."

bananie... thanks for your wee message the other day. i am so excited for you gals and the prospect of you parenting... i will be writing to you soon. austin, tx is one of those places i visit on days when i want to feel creative... never actually walked its streets but i have images of it from the film and television and books and i go there a lot when i am feeling uninspired...there's something wonderfully radical about a place where so many people create... in my mind i have a tumble down wee place there with a wrap around porch with fairly lights and junk store finds and i spend all day there writing and making things... just one of my little dreams... OK BANANIE LISTEN UP - I JUST DID A GOOGLE ON AUSTIN TX AND OUT OF THE LIST PICKED THE AUSTIN CHRONICLE WEBSITE. I HAVE NEVER LOOKED AT IT BEFORE. EVER. DIDN'T KNOW IT EXISTED. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLASE CAN YOU PICK ME UP A COPY OF TODAY'S MARCH 3RD EDITION - THE QUEENS OF CYBER SPACE. I WANNA FRAME THE COVER. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE. CAN YOU SEND ONE TO JUDE TOO? LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!! MAN! (woman!?) THAT IS AMAZINGLY FREAKY!!! hahahahhaahaha.... i live for these moments of inspiring coincidence... :0) i love you bananie. and i miss you too.

2 sleeps to go... i have a nest of butterflies in my stomach... in 48 hours i'm gonna be falling into the arms (no doubt overwhelmed with emotion) of the one man who's love has never been in question... 18 months has been too long...
