Bloke: I'm sorry mate, but you've got to stay positive... *grins and gives thumbs up* ... HIV positive!
Friend: What?
Bloke: I'm sorry.

Gin

I love the Tiger Lillies, and they love gin.

Christmas Cheat Sheets

This is a marvellous idea.

I expect everyone's Christmas Cheat Sheet handed into me by Friday.

Contextualised

Four Things I've Done This Week Out Of Context

1. Given a man an envelope with a teabag in it.
2. Considered calling the police.
   
3. Run into Superdrug, 'borrowed' some hairspray, and run out again.
   
4. Waved a spoon in a drunk woman's face and said "Does this look like a key to you?!"

1:43: "I'm gonna shit on your floor"

Ok, so I love Julian Casablancas.

37 Plan

So, not that anyone cares, but here's how I intend to complete my goals for the year:

Knit two complete things - I can't find anything I want to knit, but when I do, I will.

Make and keep a recipe file - I've begun one on the computer, it's not really the same but it will do for now.

Go to a gig - I'm hopefully seeing Jean Genie in November.

Go on holiday - Scotland sort of counts, but also... camping anyone?

Utilise the British post system - oooh I have some darn good plans for this. Secret plans.

Scream profanities in a public place (this is ongoing) - called a chav a "twat" today, he called me a "slag". Good times.

Gain access to an accordion - or alternatively, a steel drum

Drink more herbal tea - made strawberries & cream iced tea today... miam miam!

Complete a Rubik’s cube - ordered one in the post, but was out when it was delivered...

Go to Scotland - November

Go to London - next Saturday

All going more or less to plan.

In other news, went to the new Cath Kidson shop today... £80 for a duvet cover? You must be joking!!

The 37 Halfway Mark

Ok, so instead of one big resolution, I gave myself 37 small resolutions to do. It's more or less halfway through the year now (a little late, ok) so I think it's time for a review and to check off the things I've already done.

4. Wear heels more often
5. Get a 2:1 or better
6. Knit two complete things

3. Very very old, unopened yogurt
4. Nazi Ghost

Liveblogging: Kitchen Slug

01:27am - There is a slug on the kitchen floor. It's looking at me! Ok, maybe it's not looking at me, but it shouldn't be where it is. How did it get there?

01:28am - Did Willow bring it in?

01:45am - Shall I wake Sarah up? No, I'll just ignore it.

01:50am - I called him a twat, a slimey arse face and a twatty sluggy twat. I feel a bit bad now, so I think I'll try and go to sleep.

01:52am - Spilled my tea. Went to kitchen to make a new one and found the slug in the cat's food bowl. He can't do that! That's not his food! How gross, and also how very rude of him.

01:53am - Have made a new cup of tea.

01:54am - Apologised to slug for earlier berating. Put cat bowl, including slug, in the bath.

02:04am - I'm going to bed now.

Top 10 Geographically Specific Songs

These songs each remind me of being in an exact moment of my life. You know how you have songs which you hear and they take you back to the same place and time? It’s called a ‘flashbulb’ memory, psychologists believe that there’s a strong link between memory and emotion, which is why we remember things that mean more to us, or that we relate to. But I digress…

1. Always – Blink 182



2. Since You Been Gone – Rainbow


3. Blue Monday – New Order


4. Sukie in the Graveyard – Belle & Sebastian


5. Waterloo Sunset – The Kinks


6.Don’t Call My Baby – Madison Avenue


7. Lullaby – The Cure


8. Caroline’s a Victim – Kate Nash


9. All Falls Down – Kanye West


10. Squares – The Beta Band

Tu me manques.

Beaky

The following is a MySpace (yes, it's that old) message I sent to Fergus in November 2007:

I had this really weird dream last night that there was a duck in my stomach that wouldn't stop quacking! So no one would give me a job! And then the doctor said "Why did you eat a duck?!" and I'm like "I didn't! Why would I eat a live duck?! I'm vegetarian." And then she said "Well you'll just have to wait until it climbs out your nose or something," and I was like "How can it climb it's got no hands?!!" And then I woke up. :S

So yes, two dreams in a week, that's a new record I think.

Dear Black-Eyed Peas,

You will never be anywhere near as good as The Fugees.



Love from,

Everyone that bought The Score.

Ps. Yes, she did say "Nina Simone defecating on your microphone".
