And so it was that I came to put my
feet up on the desk and started to consider my many daydreaming
options. There were just too many themes and situations that I could
plug into and frankly I wasn't really wanting to have to think too
hard. Not at all in the heat of this particular moment. I also knew
that somewhere the sun would be going down, inspiring or depressing
random groups of people in odd numbers and outfits everywhere. Would
that thought be my springboard? It turned out not to be and so I
continued in my blankness with nothing substantial to flesh out the
dream balloon structure I had constructed in my head. Usually it came
in black and white, from the past, not the present and certainly not
from the future, that was hard work and relied upon a very active and
detailed imagination, too many things to piece together and explain,
too many distracting rabbit holes. The past was best because it could
be understood, explained but still manipulated. I had of course been
there but not everywhere in it and the surroundings and most of the
situations were familiar, all very helpful. Everything, even a day
dream has it's limits and it's range. Ok here we go...someplace,
probably in the stone kitchen, haggis and neeps were being prepared
and the cookery process had just created a fantastic smell.
