Blanks and blues

on random things and loneliness


The dust keeps settling too nicely on the floor. And now I need to wipe them off my books. I ask myself how it is that I keep forgetting, when I keep reminding myself to bring that notebook everywhere, but it's a lie. I often forget to remind myself. The thought seldom crosses my mind. But today I will put it in my bag and have it dig a snug space in my bag. 

Later, yes. 

I have just committed the sin of looking back at what I have written. I shouldn't have done it. But what gives, when this space is so tiny, the ceiling, not high enough? No matter, I have enough space inside to put things in, though there isn't much headroom for memories as there is for listlessness. 

Time, I steal--because I have to, because I want to. Twice, during the last eleven seconds, I typed spave, instead of space

Let's see:

It's March and yet much rain has already fallen. What is the world coming to? There isn't much to be seen where I am. There never is, but how come I see so much?

How many sunsets more?

It's Women's Month, once more

So let me share with you a list of the women I stalk online, just because they remind me that a woman with a mind of her own is a wonderful woman to be:

Daphne Osena-Paez
Katrina Stuart Santiago
Jessica Zafra
Conchitina Cruz
Anne Boyer
Mary Anne Moll
The Cat with the Fiddle
Lea Salonga
Chella Courington

Go and get yourself a haircut, a hot-oil treatment, a pedicure, a Starbucks, a new pair of shoes, a hug from your kids, a look of tenderness from your man, a high-five from your boss, smiles from your fans, er, friends! You deserve to be adored!
=)

As always, my dears, let's all fly high, for we are women!

It's my favorite month of the year!

MARCH
by Emily Dickinson

Dear March, come in!
How glad I am!
I looked for you before.
Put down your hat-
You must have walked-
How out of breath you are!
Dear March, how are you?
And the rest?
Did you leave Nature well?
Oh, March, come right upstairs with me,
I have so much to tell.
