Birthday Presents

Books, books and still more books: Imperial Life in the Emerald City by Rajiv Chandrasekaran, Murakami's The Elephant Vanishes, Gunter Grass and Peter Mayne. A vintage Czechoslovakia top (when all I really wanted was a Dukla Prague away kit), and a box of chocolates from a student that I scoffed, quickly, in between last minute preparation for tomorrow's exams.

Things have been better.
Things have been worse.
