Relatively normal this morning, feeling weird this afternoon. Went up to the chalet after philosophy. Philosophy was good although the hijab didn’t happen as the leaders of the session hadn’t got it together so instead we had a round-up of whether animals are persons (inconclusive but interesting) and an intro to the topic of GM foods which was totally damning of the behaviour of the multinationals. Monsanto came off the worst. I am developing a Philosophy about all this – so watch this space!
Email from One & Other with a photo from the plinth. It took me back. I thought they were doing it again but it seems not.
But then I went to the chalet. Felt exhausted so slept after lunch and ended up feeling really out of it. Need to ground myself – but also have the urge to write so hard to know what to do. Sometimes life feels like treading a tightrope.
Good to have the car even though I do end up feeling like a taxi some of the time. Daniel wants me to collect Alex for a sleepover. Then on Wdds I have a teaching practice assessment so have to get my head in gear for that. At times it feels that the two halves of my character cannot coexist in one person.
My twins fight
like dog and cat
I cannot right
this ship of state
Can’t remember any more. It was a poem I wrote a couple of years back. Called ‘Gemini’.
I don’t believe at all in astrology predicting the future – but it does seem to have something to say about character. I often read the stuff about Gemini and it makes sense. Weird. I don’t see why it should.
I’m rambling. Will be spending an evening with Daniel watching videos.
Kirk out.
