Have spent a good deal of my postwork time outside, walking with Peretz, walking by myself, it's a bit chilly, suits my mood.

Feeling sufficiently better to feel some stirrings of genuine hostility, it's kind of refreshing. Heartless & cold, that's me all over. Gimme danger, little stranger.

Had enough stupidity, it's bad enough when stupid people do it, clever people so wrapped up in their sad, little problems that they act stupid, a nauseating abyss. Time to step away from the edge, think about something else. Cookery, say.

Anybody want to have a dinner party?
