my own peculiar peggotty


i want to be eight-year-old david copperfield, living in peggotty's house, the house that used to be a boat.

with a little bedroom in the stern: a small window where the rudder used to be, milky whitewashed walls, a nosegay of seaweed in a blue mug on the table, a little looking-glass framed with oyster shells.

doesn't it sound so lovely?
