We will start the day, here in [what turns out to be] Universal Time Plus One, by switching on the machine. And picking up the overnight voicemail on the phone left in the car last night (after yesterday's 476-mile round trip, to Wales and back, to pick up a motorcycle). And in a moment, letting out the chickens and the ducks. And, and.
And writing, scribbling, devising 1,000 words of a performance for tonight. Put that aside for later - no, seriously, because rehearsals inside the head are always glaringly there when it's real and everything is going - not necessarily wrong, but differently. So think about ... the final working day of this busy week, and the sense of change coming, and the actual change already happening.
Conversation yesterday, in the car. The cure for so many conditions is to engage, no? To take action, commit, do. The body language of two people in a car: side by side, sharing a destination. Maybe serious discussions should be saved for car journeys - or just journeys in general, and maybe ...
That opening piece yesterday; a thought overnight. Focus on Jo next time: she's in Katie's life for a reason. We have the man on the pavement who's coming for her; we have Katie already living in Jo's flat. It's the place of safety. The next trick, though, will be to dispose of the day - to get out of starting where it left off.
Scroll down to yesterday's entry for that one. A more interesting link for today would be Julia Cameron and The Artist's Way. I wonder if these entries count as 'morning pages'. No rules - of course they do.
