"All this he saw, for one moment breathless and intense, vivid on the morning sky; and still, as he looked, he lived; and still, as he lived, he wondered."

― Kenneth Grahame, The Wind in the Willows

Oggi…

…devo correre come una disperata. Devo:

  1. andare in università ad assistere a degli esami;
  2. andare in fumetteria a prendere Thor sperando che sia l’ultimo;
  3. terminare le tavole del lotto due;
  4. iniziare il modellino del lotto due;
  5. lavorare sulle tavole del lotto tre;
  6. lavorare sulla lettura critica per questa roba;
  7. prenotare un paio di esami;
  8. fare ancora la coda allo sportello per il riconoscimento dei crediti lavorativi.

Ah, devo anche fare colazione… credo che inizierò da quella. Con una bella spremuta d’arancia! ;-p

Chapter 3 After supper, when the visitors had gone, he went to his room and lay down on the sofa: he wanted to think about the monk. But a minute later Tanya came in. “Here, Andryusha; read father’s articles,” she said, giving him a bundle

Spooktober 26 – The Black Monk (1)

Anton Chekhov (1860–1904) was a Russian physician, short-story writer and playwright, and I’m not particularly fond of him, though he’s widely regarded as one of the greatest masters of modern short fiction and who am I to argue? His work is celebrated for its psychological

Beauty and Ugliness: an exhibition

A few pictures from the recently closed exhibition on Beauty and Ugliness as an aesthetic paradigma in which what’s ideal and what’s grotesque melt together as sides of the same coin. The exhibition featured works by Brueghel (lent from the other exhibition at Palazzo Reale),

    Dedico una terzina pseudo-dantesca a codesto tuo giovenil eroico furore:

    Quando il sole si leva la mattina,

    che tu sia tigre o gazzella sbarbina,

    l’obbligo è sempre far ‘na corsettina!

    Giusto, Brian e, come diceva Aldov l’importante è che se muori avvisi prima. Comunque sì, si fuma roba buona. Almeno a giudicare dalle facce e dalla roba che mettono in vetrina ogni tanto. Un giorno dovrò fare delle foto.

    Njord, i casi sono due: o hai la glicemia davvero alta (ma sull’orlo del collasso) o sei Rocky3. In entrambi i casi suggerisco un bel controllino…
