it’s a friday morning. i woke up at the leisurely hour of 9:00, and am sitting here nursing a giant mug of strong, sweet coffee, getting ready to dive into a book. the flat is flooded with sunlight, the cat is bathing in a small pool of it on the floor, a tantalisingly warm breeze floats through the open window, soaring, swelling strains of opera in the background… and a four day weekend stretching out in front of me.

it doesn’t get any better than this.

Maria Callas – un bel di vedremo (Puccini: Madama Butterfly)

    bliss! enjoy!

    You know, I don’t think you can really appreciate a long holiday weekend off unless you work full-time in an office. I have a rather unconventional sort of job and getting time off doesn’t come with that same feeling of pure bliss. i miss that feeling. it’s so lovely.
