In this photo we are alone together, slightly buzzed from a glass of wine and in a partial nude photo shoot we accidentally won on Instagram. We’ve just come from a development where we worked on a play together. A few months later, we’ll work together again. Perhaps that’s what the year will be remembered for: getting to work together again. How lucky we are to enjoy it. It’s the year we ripped up the front garden and laid new turf. The year I went crazy and didn’t eat. The year a mate passed away from brain cancer. The year, another mate’s house went up in flame, and yet another one hi-fived death in the ER. You were brave this year. Christ you ran into the fire. It’s the year the kids grew taller, pointed out at the world, and yelled LOOK with great fervour. Look how marvellous and weird and scary and curious. Look out, look at that, and look.
The blog will have some time off but will return in the new year.
