We’ve been back in London for some days now, and it’s nice to see life carries on as simply as when we left. Everyone seems to take simplicity for granted at some point or another, but I know plenty of people who seem to enjoy every second of it, and I admire them. It’s a unique person who wants nothing more from life than the simple pleasures. I’ve never been that contented, but I’d like to try it for a week or so.
I saw Simon Jones a bit for the time we’re back here. He surprised me by remembering that I turn 31 next Monday. Si is a lot like I am in the way that his mind is always somewhere else, so things like that slip his mind. It seems some percentage of the people here have birthdays in November. That’s a hell of a lot of Scorpios running around. If I put more into astrology, that could be a bit dangerous.
Si is still hatching his amusing, inventive plans that I think only he could be brilliant enough to come up with. The difference between us is that while I’m sitting there still rolling it around in my mind, he’s verbalizing it and putting it into action. Dreamers like that are the entrepreneurs that somehow make successes in their madness, while the rest of us just sit and... well, dream about what it would be like. I’m often made miserable by my own reluctance. I’ve heard you never get anything if you never make an effort, but some things seem a little too impossible to even go for, and I guess that’s what holds me back in the long run.
I didn’t really miss the London weather. My dog loves to go romping through the puddles outside when we go on walks, but he also loves to shake off on the furniture and me upon our return. If I see you and I smell of dog, at least you’ll know why.
