"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."

Queste feste mi costringono

Queste feste mi costringono a fare cose che normalmente non farei, ma che è bene che faccia. Mi costringono ad andare dal parrucchiere (anche se mi ha fatto proprio male, sì, sì, avevo detto riflessi va bene ma niente strisce visibili e ho quasi i colpi di sole, avevo detto mossi e sono crespi, avevo detto una spuntatina, avevo detto). Mi costringono ad andare dalla manicure (anche se era pieno e alla fin fine mi sono dovuta ingegnare in altro modo ma tant’è). Mi costringono a passare tempo con i parenti (e passare un intero pomeriggio con mio padre tra fumetteria, sigarette e un bicchiere di spumante da Peck è, credetemi, un avvenimento). Mi costringono a fare shopping e a rinnovare il guardaroba (quanto tempo era che volevo comprarmi una minigonna nuova? e il corpetto di pizzo?). Insomma, le incombenze mondane mi costringono a non lavorare qualche pomeriggio all’anno. Che siano le tanto denigrate "feste comandate" a salvarmi dal tracollo isterico?
