Littoral literally
Cambridge: January 21st
Wake at 5am and listen to radio – endless news about the weather reminding me – taunting me not to worry. Wear hat for first time this year – Two University meetings – aspergers student project and REF – meet twitter follower for real
Lost lottery ticket sticks out of snow bank:13 14 21 34 35 03 06
Home – cat fed – wait – wait –wait – rush – food fuss – forget things – Restricted timetable – leave.
Journey – long – cold – therefore painful – but the trains worked – evidently not for all that many people – I feel rare. Lost
Sky darkening – listen to Different Trains on the train – we keep stopping which spoils the effect – Elastic band abandoned – trolley passes at speed ignoring me as have tell tale homemade sandwich in hand – wanted tea.
lost boot chain seen on platform edge at Waterloo
Underground busy – feel invisible as people walk directly at me – timed this wrong – change at Warren Street but have to let 3 trains pass in as many minutes as they are too full to allow any semblance of personal space. Forth train slightly less full so give it a go – breathe its 2 stops only.
Arrival as the train splits in two – slush – walk in road as unfrozen – here.
Unpacked sort systemize ‘stuff’
Small tea
TV
Bath
As I lay back I see rhythm written in the walls – wash – dry – camera out – pictures taken – battery warning – fail realization as left charger at home – take frustration out by mocking the shower cap
TV Incas each stone interlocks – second cup of tea
Turn back on endless news – third cup of tea
Fill in form I had forgotten to do – on own so takes the equivalent of the Triassic Period to read
Subtitles on – ‘Germans pour into Poland’ pour? How literalism eats away at my imagination
Grinling Gibbons
Limewood – first cup of coffee
Gilded sculptures -undercuts
Switch off please – can I?
No
22 hour day – I didn’t put that in the application
