fireside thoughts

---

may 31 2010. one day segues into another and i find sleep is a bland space between two lives. i sat fireside at the cottesloe hotel and watched the sun slide down the clouded sky into the sea. i love the space, the void, the quiet emptiness that is western australia. the pub was virtually empty. monday nightpoker being setup for seven. the day passed with little work in windowwashing. i went to the dunes and planted the last of my ninetythree starts. yesterday anthony came down with a tray and we put in thirty. i am soothed by thoughts of gaia as i labour in the sand. the optimism of a green shoot, the potential of woody expansion.
my sortie to the hills came unglued when mad michael got into the car and started barking directions. after sixty seconds it was over as he slammed the door and departed. emailed gareth in mundaring monday to say sorry i didn't have his phone number to cancel. not to worry i'm back on track. renewed vigour, revitalized. must get youtube posted on website.
