In omnibus requiem quaesivi, et nusquam inveni nisi in angulo cum libro. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was Aardvark. Saturday, 31 January 2009. According to Nicole, her mother was getting distressed because I didn't update my blog on a regular basis. Since I don't want to be responsible for Vicky running around with a hatchet in Adelaide killing people here's an update on the happenings of last week. I dedicate this one to Vicky. At the Ringvaart a woman was feeding the birds. Seagulls ...

In omnibus requiem quaesivi, et nusquam inveni nisi in angulo cum libro. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was Aardvark. Saturday, 29 November 2008. Solid as a bank. Most people who buy these things use them only once and then sell them again. With this in mind I set off (walking! To the corner of Kamerlingh Onneslaan and Middenweg. There's a second-hand shop there and I thought that maybe they had something for me. I walked out the backdoor and into the formal gardens behind Frankendael. You e...

In omnibus requiem quaesivi, et nusquam inveni nisi in angulo cum libro. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was Aardvark. Thursday, 31 July 2008. The weather was tropical today, well over 30°C. When I woke up I had a fierce headache and my hip was killing me. I stayed home from work. Halfway through the morning the pain in my hip wasn't getting any better, so I took a 400 mg ibuprofen. This helped a bit, but not enough. In my left foot, a heel spur. And that after 8 weeks! Some kids were really ...

In omnibus requiem quaesivi, et nusquam inveni nisi in angulo cum libro. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was Aardvark. Sunday, 18 January 2009. No rioting, please! Ok, stop, I submit. I will update the blog. Whether you like the contents or not I don't know…. When I got near the stand of trees the clouds were looking very streaked against the rising sun. I tried to catch the same colours at the villa, but by that time Aurora had left the building…. Villa frankendael just after sunrise. He pas...

In omnibus requiem quaesivi, et nusquam inveni nisi in angulo cum libro. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was Aardvark. Friday, 31 October 2008. I took the day off today. The weather was so nice I went for a long walk. First to Weesperplein, where the skateboard shop had put their furniture outside. Across the Hoge Sluis. In one of the shops they'd painted their Mac monitor to look like a face. Then onto Leidseplein, past the American Hotel. I shuddered and walked on, past the US consulate&#46...

In omnibus requiem quaesivi, et nusquam inveni nisi in angulo cum libro. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was Aardvark. Sunday, 8 February 2009. Another week's gone past, and most of the time I didn't even leave the house. Saturday I went to Danny's birthday party at Mulligans; walking towards town I saw the lights on the 'skinny bridge' were on. The whole editorial team was running around in circles trying not to panic. Boats on the amstel. Recession bread baking lessons. I walked along the A...

In omnibus requiem quaesivi, et nusquam inveni nisi in angulo cum libro. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was Aardvark. Tuesday, 30 September 2008. I worked from home today; in the afternoon I went to the hospital for my appointment with the othopaedic surgeon. First I was interviewed and examined by a nice co-assistent. She wrote down her findings and then went off to talk to the boss, who turned out to be another female doctor who did the same examination again. Monday, 29 September 2008.

In omnibus requiem quaesivi, et nusquam inveni nisi in angulo cum libro. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was Aardvark. Sunday, 31 August 2008. Yesterday I went to the 'Uitmarkt', the opening of the cultural season in Amsterdam, the Public Library OBA and Artis Zoo; all in one day…. I took over 300 photos and it took me all evening to sort them out into 'keepers' and 'shredders'. I won't bore you with the whole lot that I eventually selected —that's stil about 50! Now where did she go? In the ...
