The fantasy post

I've been having this urge to dress as Charlie Chaplin and walk down Orchard Road. The more I think about it, the more it pesters me. I already have a bowler hat, or at least a hat that is bowler-like. I have the black-tie. I have the pants. I have the loafers. I could borrow a coat.

I just need a cane, I could probably use a black umbrella, but if I want to dress like him...I should just go all the way, shouldn't I? I've been dreaming about it a lot too. I wonder if I could get Dre or Ria to dress along...Maybe as Sally O'Neil or someone. I'll wait till Dre comes back. If the urge is still there, then I shall.

This isn't some statement I'm trying to make like the jester hat last Christmas. It's just truly what my heart feels like doing.

I could overanalyse myself and wonder if this is my own way of mourning after the wake. It has been a long time since anyone from the paternal clique has called me Charlie.

But I won't.

Because if I do, I won't stop. And I've had enough of myself for the last week or so, thank you very much.
