In brief, in inadequance:

[desperance]

I have been Away. I like Away: they do things differently there. And someone else wrangles the cats, and someone else cooks, and to be honest I really don't have to do anything very much. Except party. They have good parties, in Away.

Also, I wrote fifteen hundred unexpected words of a Sekrit Projekt on the train back. See now, going Away is also productive, coming home...

Now I have to concoct something to eat, out of chorizo, smoked pork, onions, cabbage, polenta and cream. Okaaay...
