Penny dropping/dreadful(ly)

What a week, yet a week no different from others, I guess?
Coffee at Ugees, and this time they remembered me, so I was not left sitting out the front for too long ...
Went to markets, bought avocadoes and bread - still crazily busy down there, though ...
Had several early starts at work, so rode in Weds/Thurs - was going to ride also on Tues, but piked out ...
Went to movies on Tuesday night, and saw 'The disappearance of Alice Creed'
Rang 3B for a chat, she says will pick me up on bike, to come down Friday night ...
But didn't ...
...
Saturday arvo was started with this from CassE:
"Just for you ...
Hurt you? They can't
Try to? I dare them
Love you? I do
Be you? They wish
Envy you? They should
Defend you? I would"

Then I finished off my bottle of Pernod, and sorted out my belongings. An immediate reaction was that I have a lot of lanyards :o so must think of someway in which to utilise them, I suppose? Also found a supply of condoms, but their expiry date was over a year ago ... which just goes to show how long it has been since I had sex ... In fact, I am surprised I even remember what is supposed to happen, or go where ...
Also have an awful lot of 'journals' started, but never completed ... So have a huge number of books with some scribbling in! Wonder what I am to do about such things???
Oh yeah, found 'The complete idiot's guide to understanding ethics' at the local library, and whilst it is interesting to be reminded of half forgotten theories and considerations, maybe because it is written by Americans (or maybe they are just stupid), there is a consistent blurring of ethics with morality, as if the terms were interchangible, which, of course, they are not, and there is a persistent irritating negation of the language used as being extremely relative, as if they are to be excluded from such considerations. One particular example is that they highlight the example of Robin Hood in discussing 'virtue' and yet are unable to acknowledge the relativity of judgement!!! grr ...
Which reminds me-Gibson has a new book out, as does Seymour ... wonder if the new Hamilton is out yet???
Popped over to see JacJac and caught up on her news ... Hopefully I listened enough? Anyway, what she said about Mia Farrow - 'People use other people! Get used to it!' - resonated, and I now have a better understanding of what 'No relationship, just friendship' signifies ...
Hmm, have been struggling a bit with that ...
Anyway, hopefully we will survive???
