day four week thirty two two thousand and fifteen

Do, 26 feb 2015.
- Hypnos, in full power this morning. Steep like a corpse, like anaesthetized, dead to the world.
Up at six twenty six, to hell with it, take a shower anyhow.
        - Run for the bus, nearly hit by an errant taxi on some errand in the pedestrian zone. See the people waiting in the shelter leave the same.
-The bus must be coming.
- Run.
Old man running.
Should do that more often.
keep his heart in order and his weight down.
The station, a hive of activity. School children everywhere, chatting; posing, dealing with puberty, doing those things that schoolchildren do, a happy crowd, seem happier now than then, in the late sixties.. 
Bright clothes, general activity, not standing to attention in the mornings assembly, uniformed.
Big Blondy at the yorma counter, starts fumbling,.messing with customers. Wham bang Anastasia, jumps in, deals with three at once, all done by the time BB has dealt with one. Anastasia is wearing a black ribbon in her hair. A short black ribbon, like the black bands beside flags at half mast. Perhaps she has that kind of trouble.
It is late, and there are people everywhere. Talking,Strange accents.
Watch Anastasia dismantle a carton with a kitchen type breadknife. She holds the cardboard box before her body and stabs it with the knife, followed by ‚a sawing motion. She stabs towards her body, talking all the while with B. B. and Baldy.. Ritual eastern suicide springs to mind. 
Horrifying.
Baldy is Turning-into a Porcupine, his hair is growing in Spikes, straight out of his scalp.
The-late train is delayed, it is light now. the first sunrise to he seen in Land shit this year. It is foggy, the shortness of view is like a dream, looming, the electric masts, and a deep concentration on that which is in the foreground, all else being obscured by the morning's fog .
Later there is the beauty of the frost-dusted landscape to enjoy, the fog rises, dissolves by the time The train reaches Moosburg..

Watch the small river meander as it leaves Freising, as this two- storey train arrives there.
