The international symbol for ROCK ON

On Monday:

Today:

Imagine me, legs braced, head back, hands thrown out in the international sign for rock on, mouth wide, screaming: WHOOOOOO-HOOOOOOOO!

Blossoming trees are pretty exciting.

In other news, I must thank Lisa at United Cakedom for nominating me for a Liebster Award; Lizzy at the eponymous Lizzy Bradbury for nominating me for a Versatile Blogger Award, and The Foreigner at Living Life as an Expat Parent (among others unknown — was it you?) for nominating me for a BritMums Brilliance in Blogging Award where I made the shortlist in category “GO!”. Apparently you can vote for me. Or check it out and vote for some other brilliant blogger. It’s all good, man.

WHOOOOOOOO-HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Paradise Lost and Found

My laptop likes to remind me of Camelot. My screensaver pulls images green and mild (and dark and stormy, and fun and frivolous, and sweet and savory) to flaunt on the small screen that might as well be the illuminated dome of my brain. Any time I go quiet for more than five minutes, there […]

You know now, along with me, that my time in Camelot is ending, so perhaps you can also see these images with the mix of pending nostalgia that has colored all of my last days. I like to imagine these windows with Henry VIII looking through them … or Elizabeth […]
The Edge of Tomorrow

See, the wine glasses in this temporary apartment are far too small. The people upstairs are training for an obstacle race by jumping off the furniture. The washer is in a haunted closet under the basement stairs. I don’t have my car, so I can’t drive to my usual grocery store — and I can’t get delivery, […]
Day out: Kenilworth Castle

Kenilworth Castle. Hundreds of years of history wrapped up in one beautiful ruined package. It merits so much more time than I am going to spend on it. I’m in a hurry, you see, with too much to do, and “Oh my ears and whiskers, how late it’s getting!” You could rummage through the excellent-as-always English Heritage […]
