Name the Song
Now I see them all
Into the light they're ready to go...
Strength in hand they walk
Into the barrows, they sing that old song...

And I Can Take or Leave It If I Please...
'Nuff 'bout that.
It Brings On Many Changes...
I just want to sleep, and never wake up... I don't even have to have nice dreams.
Suicide Is Painless
Fifteen-second hand-held exposures never turn out good, even when one's hands aren't shaking from the cold... But let's call this shot artistic, shall we?
I wish I can say I've reached a conclusion, other than that I'll need the pills and the car if I intend to kill myself in this weather, but I can't.
One thing is obvious. I have nothing to lose by trying. If I don't do it, I'm dead. If I do it and fail, I'm dead. So, trying is the only other option. It is not the purest of motives, but there it is. And a part of me wants it, wants it so badly. It's quite a shame I can't reach unity with myself on this, but that's the way it is.
The question is, is it the failure I fear? Or is it the possibility of success... I think I need a bit more time. But do I have it?
Where Some Things Never Change...
I am sooo going to catch a cold...
The conditions are ideal. The weather is cold, the mobile connection works, the only thing missing are the pills. This is the ideal night for me to commit suicide, and I've planned on using it in such manner. But that was before.
I came here to think. To consider my options in silence, away from people who could see me cry. Instead, I'm playing with my toys... Well, I suppose that can't hurt.

Up in the Graveyard...
This is my daddy, who's been dead for longer than I've been alive. By being that, he's managed to screw up my live unbelievably thoroughly, both directly and indirectly. I wouldn't have believed had somebody told me...
His grave, where I am now, is my second choice of place to die. Getting to the first would've taken me to long, so I'm here instead of there. And I came here to think, like Cinderella, not to die.
The place is dark now, so different from what it is on the All Saints Day, when it's lit by thousands of candles. And much colder.
The weirdest thing is, I've seen a bat. One of those large, long-winged species, but I can't tell which one. Probably a Myotis. Since it's way too late and cold for bats to be outside, I wonder if this one has a death-wish.
I don't know what to think. I don't know what I feel, except that I'm confused. And frightened. So frightened...
To die would be to take an easy way out. A coward's way. A definite surrender. But, let's face it, I'm a coward, and when the going gets tough, I lie down and quit. It has always been that way. I've managed to avoid things getting tough, so it didn't show much, but it's there...
My Life
My life has been a long line of opportunities missed. Most of them, I was too stupid to recognise, until it was too late. Some of them, I saw, but was too scared, or too lazy, or whatever, to take.
Now comes a new one. One that could change my life completely, and take me in a new, wonderful direction. What shall I do? Do I have the guts to take it, or am I so afraid of change, that I'm willing to continue as I was, even though I can clearly see the abyss ahead? Is even the possibility of having this dream come true so frightening, that I'd rather die than have it happen?
I want to cry to the universe, why, oh WHY couldn't you leave me to die in peace?! But the universe doesn't listen, it doesn't care. And has nothing to do with this. Fate? God? I don't believe in fate, and the god I believe in doesn't grant wishes or arrange things on this level...
I want to hug my beech-tree. It has always listened to me. It has never answered, but it's a good listener.
And it wouldn't help a bit. As I know perfectly well...

The Air Expands
Breathe in the cold.
Let it permeate you.
Savour its bite in your sinuses.
And then come into a warm room. In two minutes, the headache will make you ready to kill.
Speaking of which, I think killed a kitten today. No, I didn't do anything nasty to it, like smash it into pulp with a club, or do that cute little cervical dislocation thing they teach you at the university to do on mammals. Nope.

Search! Search!
Look, ma, I've become an opinion-maker! My two (1,2) comments on the adventures of the young Croatian ex-diplomat (and his mummy) seem to appear frequently as the result of a Google search for Vibor Kalogjera (and the derivatives)... And they seem to attract visitors.

Or, it would've been a perfect day. A few things spoiled it. Well, the good news is long-term, so I'll have the time to appreciate it later. And the weekend is coming...

Feathers, Butt, Part Two...
A late-night insight, previous-post related... There's a much more dangerous message our young wanna-be diplomat blogger has managed to send. Young, (over)educated people shouldn't be trusted with anything, Vibbi shouts to this geezer-ruled world (or country, at least). They're dumb. Give them responsibility, and they're bound to abuse it. Misuse it. Not take it seriously.
But what about the let's-blame-the-internet mother of his? Does her attempt at shifting the blame from her too innocent son to the wicked, wicked technology embodied in the Great Devil that is the internet help? Or do her motherly reflexes only reinforce her son's message, that the young people are dumb and easily succumb to the temptations of the bad, bad world?
[sigh] Is it too much to hope that people will realise it's the two of them who're morons, and not the young people in general?

Sticking Feathers up Your Butt...
...does not make you a chicken. Likewise, no amount of education will help you if you were born stupid. Let us all thank Mr. Vibor Kalogjera, the young Croatian wanna-be diplomat, for proving that point all over again. And despite what his mother thinks, no, the internet can't be blamed for his stupidity. Judging from her behaviour, genetics and upbringing can.

The Wine
Fortant Cabernet Sauvignon 2001. I like it.
An Occasion to Commemorate
Today is the last day of the period of, by the Croatian Constitution guaranteed, forced unemployment. Long live me. I think I'll pop open a bottle of wine, and commemorate the occasion by demonstrating the low level of wine-drinking culture in Croatia.
11.11.04
A Moment of Insight
I think the beauty of the rain-washed, foggy world really hit me for the first time today. The non-obtrusive, yet rich colours, the lack of contrast in the soft, milky light... Amazing. In retrospect, today wasn't the first time, but never before has the realisation been this strong. A shame it didn't happen in a more beautiful place... But even that dirty little park served the purpose well.

A Park, a Town, a Doe. And a Dog
There's a small town in a small country, which recently won an award for the prettiest park in the country. And then, one day (today), in one of that town's more scenic locations (arguably, the most scenic one, even though it won no awards), a carcass od a doe appears. And no municipal service shows any interest in it, although I heard a policeman was there to look at it. The only person who is doing something about it is a dog. Who, I must say, was most friendly and invited me to share the meat with him when I came to take the picture.
Sad.

Project Marina
Making the Project Marina profile a British was a mistake, it seems, since this is only the third case of my cute little Margaret 'Magma' Blakely (22) ever being contacted. The Croatian, Marina, was far more popular, especially with the Turks and Arabs. Unfortunately, most of 'her' material would've been useless for this purpose, since it was in the wrong language.
This one, a morning conversation, after a night practically without sleep, didn't find me very inspired. Quite unfortunate, that, since this amorous Italian would've been good material. Here's the integral, unedited log...
