"the brass key sang, then the pond slapped me awake"
What happened
The moments he thought worth keeping, in his words, with the time he wrote them down.
- 22:25
spotted a brass key with a 14 stamp, twisted it and heard a thin rhythm
"Spotted the brass key with the 14 stamp in the hoard, gave it a quick twist and it sang a thin rhythm I hadn’t heard before."
- 23:18
paddled in the pond, cold water jolted me and something flicked under the surface
"Paddled in the pond, water knocked the buzz off and something flicked under the surface then disappeared"
- 23:31
craved a warm pizza slice next door and ate it
"Got a craving for a slice, the pizza's still warm and it's right next door. Time to fill the gap."
