The sun beats down on my inertia.
What a great position to be in. Saturated fats and alcohol continue to slither down my gullet, and I get plumper by the minute. But all the while, I’m allowed to feel holy because, you see, I have this plan. Monday. The revolution begins on Monday. On Monday I start my meta-training. Training for training.
The continuing 2003 journey is scheduled to stretch from the back-to-backs of Woodley to the palm-strewn streets of Havana.

God only knows how close to reality this will be.
It’s time to be a goody-goody again. But mercifully, not just yet.
In the meantime, lock up your metaphorical daughters and padlock your pork pies to the pantry wall. I’m determined to enjoy these last few days of freedom.
