5 months & 22 days sober. Since I don't have knee cartilage any more I make do for the pain. It's excellent. Bone broth is the new thing (roasted chicken has been my go-to). Tonight I try the vegan version with my night tea.

Just offer more flights to other places. The US should be economically sanctioned.

The London Wall at Barbican.

The London Wall at Barbican.

I worded that weird. I do not have a sub for the Standard, just the lrb. Anyways, how could I not be obsessed about brutalism surrounding an ancient Roman wall!

The Barbican Estate (I'm obsessed) by Stefi Orazi sits on the LTB and the London Standard.

Since my head is still adjusting to the time zone, I finished work hours early this morning. Onto reading on brutalism, (checked my mailbox for the lrb), and an art column in the London Standard, which I picked up before getting on the underground to the airport.

This is my fave dish from Petrus: l chicken consommΓ© you are to have before the chicken liver parfait, and then have the brioche with whipped butter for the full experience according to the chef.

Ok. Jet lag is about to hit again, just as I'm trying to learn this delectable chicken consommΓ© dish we had at Petrus by Gordon Ramsay (which I most likely will fuck up). Zzzzz or yum, brain, make up your mind.

Really hoping Petro survives and pushes Ivan Cepeda into a future win. The alternative is not so great.

The goth bar I took kiddo to (which has the famous Underworld club attached to it), used to be named after this local witch that may still haunt the place. www.davidcastleton.net/mother-damna...

I love the many little ancient, and historic churches tucked into London's modern architecture. Some going back to the 7th century. πŸ–€

Busy, but just wanted to pop in to say SCREAMS IN #JAMESJOYCE. 28 Campden Grove (or Grave, as Joyce used to call it), was his marital home with Nora. He wasn't fond of the neighborhood, as all Joyce wanted to do was visit Stonehenge. He eventually did. This is my 3rd Joycean site in my life so far.
