andcurve.weblog - The weblog of Kevin Teljeur. Somewhere within all the noise, there is a note you need to hear.

I had an odd and perhaps controversial idea pop into my head not so long ago. It was when I was visiting the Jennifer, in fact, and we were walking around Kilkenny town trying to spend my money on making me look fashionable (as opposed to looking very much like someone who had only just discovered the idea of clothes the week before), although that had (and has) no relation to the idea itself. The really controversial part of it all is actually airing the idea publicly, where people can see the idea, and have an opinion about it, which will no doubt be along the lines of a) Kevin is up to something, he’s got something going on and he’s not telling us or b) Kevin is completely mad, or maybe even c) Kevin is up to something, which is hardly surprising given that he is completely mad.

I think I might get married this year. Or have kids. Not both, of course, that would be ridiculous.

I have no idea to whom or where, the point is in fact that it’ll be completely unexpected and bizarre, it’ll all happen very suddenly and come as a shock to everyone, myself included. It could be, for example, to a Yak herder in Tadjikistan. Now, I know this might seem very off the wall to most people, and raise eyebrows with one or two people in particular, but there it is. It’s not a plan, it’s a statement of possibility.

2007 sees me buying a house. That’s not bizarre or adventurous (in fact it’s tedious and predictable, not unlike a Garfield cartoon), that’s just the way it’s going right now. Better sort out my job situation in that case, hadn’t I?
