Kung Hei Fat Choi! Happy Snake Year!
I hibernated during the holidays. But between indulging meals and fitful naps, I did make some notes and jot down a few writing ideas. Slithering through the scattered pages now, I’m discovering that writing doesn’t necessarily work better with organisation. I normally just turn the computer on when an idea strikes me. It’d be done and sent before I have a chance to regret or fully appreciate the pointlessness of it. Now that there’s a list in front of me, all my good ideas look kind of tired, like gourmet dishes that have turned cold and unappetising. Perhaps I’d be hungry enough to reheat one in the microwave in a day or two.
Meanwhile, a few pictures to mark the New Year. Two of them are by my great friends Anne-Marie and Richard. I'm fully responsible for the goofy titles.
恭喜发财新年好！
过去一个多星期好像间歇冬眠，在吃喝与小睡的循环中度过。偶尔有个合适的念头出现，便随手拿纸笔写下，等假期过后再处理。谁料现在对着清单上的课题，有如一盘盘凉了的饭菜，算它珍馐百味也失去了原来的胃口。现在才知道写作也得靠一股劲。平常念头一动，便赶紧开电脑动键盘，趁热情未冷把内心的说话写出，来不及自觉多余便完成上载；原来冲动是我写作的一种动力。清单上冷冰冰的几道菜式，可能要再过几天才弄热再吃了。
暂时借几张春节掠影（其中两张是我的老友曲卫东和安玛丽的大作，但标题是我胡乱加上去的）祝大家蛇年身心舒畅，逢凶化吉！
