JULIA # 35 - Saturday night

This one evening, when I wasn't in the library nor working nor drinking free wine at a galley nor sleeping nor baking, I was very very happy just hanging around the flat with Johan

What is it with music that throws you around whether there is space or not, forgetting fatigue and inhibitions, blisters and boyfriends? At three am the band begged us the audience to go home.



Here is one explanation to the power of music, provided by Christian Lindberg, Swedish composer and conductor.

"We were dancing monkeys long before we were talking individuals. The root of language is rythm and once we get the rythm in our blood, a hundred bodies can gather force in one voice and body, build pyramids or march in sync towards death or victory over the enemy. Rythm, dance and music are the basis of all interplay, most beautifully expressed in the large choir or symphony. With its help, we feel the sphere of music and perceive the essence of humanity."

So, on Friday, a friendly thief stole my bag with wallet, phone, the lock, the stock and the barrel. At least he was considerate enough to do the move after 5 am, so we had the time for many feasty hours, dancing, dancing, dancing together and alone, rocking and rolling, shaking our behind, dancing on one leg and to the left, pogo style and nightclub two step. We did not do the hustle.

Anyway. Drunk and happy friends cheered me up and so did the taxi driver and the cleaning lady and Cams baked buns with cardamom, apples and masse-pain because I like (elle, pas) and told me jovial stories of her time at the bakery. Do you know the secret of parmesan? Or the theory of yeast bubbles?

Then we invited the others to have some buns and drank coffee, smoke cigarettes and read in bed, all in the same big bed. All you need is love.

Now I am trying to make Camilla take an appartment with cuisine non equipée across the street so that Vincent and she gotta come here every evening for dinner.

By night, an atheist half belives in God
