While we are talking, Vanda is already snitching something from the refrigerator, because living might be boring without biological needs. Have you ever eaten steamed broccoli? Thinking of me as a madman? Be sure of it, it may lead you somewhere. I’m just bored, but with food it becomes completely another story. I start to devastatingly exist, clinching myself in life’s entity with such brute means. People changed the world (let it be “wormd” from now on, please?) with a dessert – just look at Marie Antoinette.

Talking about my favorite topic totally retracted me from Vanda, which was a total mistake: she started reading books upside-down just to avoid the humming noise from the bathroom tube. It reminded her of childhood days, when she was certain that someone was sneaking at father’s house each week just to take a shower and leave some lines of hair as evidence to follow. Of course Vanda never left the house to follow this trace, it would have broken our story. Just move on. Like, if you are physically able to do this. We should include a diverse audience from all over the world (are sure you won’t prefer “wormd”?) to sell this script. Pay attention, two-legged-friend.

When Vanda isn’t in denial of her curious existence, she becomes a bleeding wound of joy and focus, agility and strength. She walks miles around her room just wearing her fluffy socks. That’s not the skill to be ignored or underused. Sometimes it’s not a matter of “where” you are going, but “how long” you can do it. Surely, you stopped for a little time, if you’re reading this. Or listening to this. Or eating this? Stupid bird, why have you stolen this text from some human? It is not even physically published, which means that someone printed it for himself. Mad and precious piracy. Continue your eating, dear bird.

Touching yet very embarrassing to embrace someone’s extraordinary nature. But getting to know someone’s boring routine – that’s quite another story. You know it, I know it, Vanda knows too. It’s not about the difference between day-to-day life and heroic acts once upon a time, which are all the same to the eyes of roaming raccoons in your area. You didn’t know about them? Strange, it’s like polish beavers – everybody knows about them.
