Is that the Alhambra, Max? That is some mind! I don't believe there is a mind so lovely and orderly as that!!

Terry - the twins? Now you are REALLY spooking me!
In minds, as in horror films, the thing hinted at and never seen and examined, is full of far more terror than the thing faced and touched!

Yup.

Older than it looks, influenced by numerous cultures, but definately not, orderly!

Dunno, twas in my teens.

The thing next to the snowperson - the one whose shadow becomes a cross - what is that?


Mailbox.

Quote:
TWO crosses.....hmmmm


One cross, plus the snowman's shadow has hurns and a pitchfork so it compensates mmkay.

It's a dog, only there because it's going through a wall that isn't. The picture frame in the original was the whole picture (down to three times).

It's missing a lot. It was only fun for a bit. The idea was to play with walls and shadow but it got boring.

I try to avoid brick and mortar bookstores since I'm such an impulse shopper when it comes to books. I'll walk in for The Castle and walk out with one of everything. That's why I have about 100 unread books on my bookshelf.

KP, are you sure we are not flatmates ? Smile

Some of the cupboards in my mind are firmly locked. I don't dare open them for the fear of the demons which lurk behind those closed doors. While the room stays neat and organized majority of the time, it can descend into utter chaos almost instantly, and then it takes a long while for me to clear it up and restore the order which it is so used to. And ofocourse, depnding on the situation, some cupboards are locked, some are opened.

I also have some pictures hanging on the wall, almost all of them are of the same person - and even after hanging there was several years, they look like brand new, dust free, shining with their own inner light. When I feel too content, just one look at them pictures reminds me of what I have lost in life - in order to decorate my room with the most expensive of all things.....

<damn, this is making me sentimental>
