Nathan Yan/photoToday:
Mike Pelayo/photoSitting here in the kitchen at the flat; Juliette's sitting next to me talking on the phone to the world-famous Vicki Hughes; Mike and Lisa are away changing the world, but they'll be back soon to watch the game. Comfortable and happy all.
I made a serious sin of omission in my previous Top 5 post. Somehow, Ordinary People didn't make my Top 5 Movies of All Time. This movie shaped my life and topped my list for a good 5 years, and I threw it in the gutter with all the other movies that missed the list, with America's Sweethearts and Blue Crush and Casanova. My apologies, Timothy Hutton. My apologies, 1980.
Now it is a few hours later and Mike and Juliette are in the kitchen arguing about two Italian phrases, one of which means "to have a party" and the other of which means "to cut someone's head off." How did we all get to this point, in this kitchen, in this city, with each other, with these pints of ice cream and cups of tea, wearing these clothes with these haircuts? Historical path dependence.
Time to go lie on my heavenly bed, read about German history, and pretend I'm still in school.

today at the flat was great!
tartine=top shelf!
by the way:
Jo don't even pretend like you want that cookie! You are giving a deceivingly desirous look to the cookie...but I don't believe it for one second! (Unless you are pretending that it's something else...like that marvelous scone...)
I admit, that cookie was possibly the worst cookie of all time. My look should be interpreted as one of disgusted amazement at the very existence of such a profoundly unsatisfactory cookie.
when will a picture of Benny make the cut!?
Woah I found Jo's blog!
