Bonne anniversaire pour moi..


27 today, then.
Philippa is at work, so I’m alone and about to watch ‘District 9’ on DVD. It’s about aliens lost on Earth and feeling lonely and misunderstood. I believe I will be able to sympathise.
Tonight, my beloved has arranged a nice meal out at somewhere or other. It’s a double date with Nathan and Hannah, which should be interesting.

To celebrate this day of days, I present a birthday inspired bout of Initialoetry. (written at 4am this morning while I lay awake wondering where the Hell the last 27 years have gone, and what I’ve actually achieved during them, and what on Earth might happen in the next 27 years, and whether I will actually survive that long, and all that other rubbish that starts to fill your head on your birthday as you approach 30)

Here, a perfect person?
Your best intentions race towards happiness,
destroying another yesterday.

RC 20-1-11 (my birthday)
