9 months

Another day, another milestone. I do like the quiet satisfaction of reaching a number with significance, watching the days ratchet up.

I had my first drinking dream the other night. I was drinking red wine with Robert Downey Jr and was thinking oh dear I shouldn’t be doing this but I am. I woke up, realised it was a dream and felt huge relief then promptly fell asleep again and dreamt it hadn’t been a dream after all and I really had been drinking with RD Jr so I was doubly relieved and a bit confused when I woke up the second time.

I know this is the scene that caused that dream. I have no great desire to drink red wine right now but I do still occasionally miss sitting at a bar, swirling whisky in a glass, smoking a cigarette, knowing you are there for a while and with good company. As I know, this is an illusion and I barely ever found bars like this or Robert Downey Jr or Jake Gyllenhaal to talk to and it’s no longer 1970
