MR FROSTY:

Dec. 2nd, 2008 | 02:59 pm


Last christmas
last christmas
last christmas

I am homesick, although its not really my home any longer. I miss Cambridge, my little town and my family&friends. I miss crispy cold early mornings, cups of real tea, sitting by the fire, FROST on the grass, pavements, trees, nose etc. I miss wrapping up really warm. Warm wine and christmas treats. Cambridge at this time of year is my FAVOURITE! Buying a christmas tree from the market, peering in all the little shops, the little cafes, taking the double decker bus around all the tiny villages back to SW, fields of frosty green, bike rides, cyclists everywhere.
I'm here again for the holidays, working on christmas AGAIN! I need the money. How sad.

My dearest patient boyfriend, my world
My flat
Warm things (soup, hot water bottles, blankets)
Having a job and money coming in every month
My lovely friends both near and far
Have the ability to do lots of things; speak another language, make things
Food
Be able and free to study what and when I like
Computers and cameras
Lots of old material waiting to be made into clothes
TEA, TEA, TEA
The invention of knitting
Letters and warmth
Love and light
Memories and better times
