The Death of Winter

After a week of stress and unpleasantness at work, Friday night found me stepping off a bus with 2kg of cheesecake and bound for a gathering at my friend Pegah’s home. As I reached the sidewalk I heard my name called and saw that Jana had been on the same bus. I Jana met through my friend April in January, and had actually met both Pegah and Sara through her as well.
Jana and I arrived at Pegah’s home to find Sara, Pegah and one fellow I can’t remember the name of already there. A night of food and interesting conversation was begun. I swear I’d never seen more desserts for only a handful of people in one night before. We definitely had a feast of sweets. it was a fitting end to my sweet gluttony. Long last my health.
The photo you see to the right of Sara and I was taken later in the evening, when I dug out my camera and snapped a few poorly-lit photos.
It was a great evening and I was very thankful to have a night among friends again. Work had sapped my energy and mood, but I was definitely renewed after being in such good company.

Just over two months remain in the third year I’ve kept a journal here at Frozen Truth . com and I’ve started some early planning for a new presentation, fresh coding and a new level of content. I hope my sketchiness recently can be forgotten once I have the freshness ready for you. I’m genuinely excited about it and some choices I’m making at the moment that will change a lot throughout my life. I hope to keep things interesting.

Today I took a walk to Deadman’s Island, where I captured some video and still shots that I’ll be sharing soon.

I have Rob Zombie’s “Death of it All” stuck in my head. I can’t help but sing, “together we all see the death of it all.” We do, and it’s beautiful.

Farewell winter, die well.

  1. You’ll be the first to be let in on the experimentation.
    And of course we need to get work done on your site before this takes place.

    Have I mentioned I love your icon?

    1. It sure was fun. I think we had just enough sweets.

      Yeah, the photo turned out well. Feel free to send me any of the photos you took when you have them uploaded.

      Have fun with the cookies. I will sit here in envy.

      1. And envy you should. . . they turned out very nicely. Chocolate chip oatmeal. . .mmmm.
        I will definitely send you pictures once I have them uploaded. Possibly tonight since i’m at a friend’s place now.

  2. In a world of caskets and dark things
