"…Living only for the moment, turning our full attention to the pleasures of the moon, the snow, the cherry blossoms and the maple leaves; singing songs, drinking wine, diverting ourselves just floating, floating….refusing to be disheartened, like a gourd floating along with the river current; this is what we call the floating world…” Asai Ryoi, in Ukiyo Monogatari (Tales of the Floating World, 1661)

The Top of the Lake
The afternoon was simple. I had a bowl of cream of chicken soup for lunch, then laid down for a short nap, about an hour or so. I followed it with a shower, then a trip to the market to pick up groceries for the coming week and the stuff for dinner while I am watching the Golden Globes tonight. Dinner was a rib-eye steak, fresh cut green beans, stuffing, all followed by a piece of carrot cake. Then, once dinner was finished I've settled in to watch to awards show. I will say, that, for me, the entire show was made within the first thirty minutes when the amazing Elizabeth Moss won for the equally amazing "Top of the Lake". It you haven't seen it I highly recommend it.
