This is an ode to Deloney, he who is the master of the microblog before it was known as the microblog the true expert in saying so much with so few words who always manages to convey the chill Canadian air or the smell of the bakery downstairs or the taste of something simple prepared with love haunting us in a brief paragraph at most two; Deloney, who manages to flirt with a literary wink or nudge but is often more blatant than that, shocking but delighting his harem of blog readers giving us all a naughty shiver down our spine … or maybe even somewhere else. Gasp.

- I like the idea of counting each day as a separate life. Starting anew, celebrating what we have, rather than what we don't. Remembering days that have shaped me, made me who I am. Or just today.

By the way, Indigo, I am perplexed and not pleased by the fact that I can’t leave a comment on your blog now–it keeps asking me for my email and name and then tells me I don’t have a proper WordPress login. (And sorry for using your comment section for this, Mali! I figure Indigo will be back to see how people respond to her salacious comment.)
