Keeping warm

09/07/2010

It is really cold here. I sometimes have to wear my coat and sit next to the bar heater. Sonja used to turn the oven on for heat... but that makes me think of Hansel and Gretel.I don't know whether to feel guilty about my 1960s fur collar (toasty warm) or righteous... *recycling!* *consciousness raising!*. I hope a militant anti-op-shop-fur fighter doesn't bust in with a bucket of blood.

One of the great things about being in town is that I can easily go to exhibitions and libraries to do research — I don’t have to rely on Wiki and Google.

When I was a child, I loved the idea that the back of a cupboard could give way to a winter wonderland, and that in every Nancy Drew novel there would be a secret panel in a study.
