17th July – Tried to sew four borders onto a quilt, two long pieces and two short. I got two of them wrong. That has to be unusual.
18th July – A friend told me about Cloud computing which I knew nothing about. A line from Joni Mitchell’s Both Sides Now came into my head and stuck: I really don’t know clouds at all.
19th July – My husband read my translation draft.
20th July – In a sports shoe store with my son who is at the end of a flu bout, I saw his skin had a sickly green tint and I worried, until other people came in and turned green. It was the intense lighting, which was also giving the African-Australian shop assistant an intense headache (but not a green tint).
21st July – A bottle of truffle-infused olive oil tells us that “Over 80% of women describe the odour of truffle oil as very sensual.” “Close your eyes, inhale the aroma,” it instructs. I’ve inhaled it twice and found I belong to the other 20%.
I like your cloud reference, I know a little about cloud, but not sure I trust it…..nice post,, I do think this way of doing a few days is good…:)
Yes, I’m sure Cloud is something I’ll have to accept in the future, though it sounds creepy to think of my stuff all stored ‘out there’ somewhere. Will it be more safe or less safe? Things are moving too fast in the electronic world. Too fast for me, at least.
Truffle oil. OMG. I laughed so much. Then read it again and laughed some more. I’ll bet it’s more than 20%!
🙂
Your laughter is infectious, even if I can’t hear it. The label must have been written by a man. He can dream.
