I realised I published two especially dull entries over the weekend - who gives a stuff what I think about spring or which seeds I planted? But this blog is called quotidiana to allow me to publish exactly such dull entries.
When I say in my blurb that this is "more like a diary really" this isn't true, there's a great deal of stuff I don't write down here. Over the weekend I was internally mulling something over, something quite good - but I didn't want to talk about it. And I won't be talking about it here, but I did desperately want to write - so instead of writing about the thing that was occupying me, I wrote about - quotidiana! There's obviously something very necessary to me about writing. As I become less talkative, I turn my attention to prose. I've had several nearly silent days recently, listening to people. So, apologies for the lack of trenchant opinionated guff - but I'm sure there'll be more to come.
