bowerbird

B is for Bramble,
And Bower
And Bird.

And a Bower is a nest,
It's Bramble's
Favourite word.

Bramble collects things for his bower
Like that and this
and this and that.

Why, he'd probably collect
That very chair,
There in which you've sat.

With many hours to kill whilst waiting to backup 5 years of my lifefiles and photos from my iMac, I set about searching my attic for the box to my computer... (sorry annie, no luck)

I got lost amongst a million and one things in there:

Boxes of photos and unprocessed film (remember film?) stacks of fashion magazines, all my fashion scrapbooks and visual arts diaries from the last 5 years...

As it turns out, not only do I hoard digitally, but also physically.

Funny, this is somewhat indicative of my general state of mind.
