Day 138 - A Comet Appears
Originally uploaded by Dunny
Bjork asked the audience to attend her gig dressed completely in white. It was the best gig of my life. The venue was like a cave, but all the bodies shimmered.

We were sitting outside, enjoying the summer sunshine, when a cataclysmic event took place in the sky. Pieces of rocks flew towards the earth, exploding like bombs. One of them hit a crowd nearby. The little boy that escaped tried to explain to an adult that many people were killed. Another one of these comets nearly missed us, exploding behind my back. We were in no hurry to get away - too transfixed by what looked like make-believe.

We swam, played hide and seek and catch before Bjork's concert. The man perusing the pet shop never owned a dog - he only liked cats. I wanted to buy him a dog so he could change his mind - I just knew he would. We'd put our credit cards together and buy the best dog in the shop. He'd see. He'd understand.

Later, at Henrique's very crowded and labyrinthine home, I had trouble finding my suitcase and kept missing my flight. His parents gave me a bedroom in the servants' quarters.

Henrique looks like a guy who knows how to have a good time.

I can't remember much, other than line ups of people in white, and that Bjork had requested the dress code.

she's so wierd! When I saw her in London at The Union Chapel. She lite the whole place with wax candles. There was no dress code but I wouldn't put it past her. I saw her in Chicago and I felt like there must have been a dress code, just about everyone was in their own hand made fashions and they were wild.
