Possibly a post of substance. But then again...

It occurs to me that I've not said anything meaningful in quite some time (Possibly twenty two years) and I couldn't tell you why. I mean, it's probably that I haven't <i>done</i> much.

Except that I've seen Louise's fabulous new residence and been to Paris and back.

Firstly, my dear friend Louise now lives in a flat right near the town centre with her boyfriend. Went round to see her like, last Saturday and had a v. cool time. Felt very young in a <i>bad</i> way for once- several pals now live away from mummy and daddy- I had <i>my</i> dad come collect me from Louise's.

I know I'm hardly alone- graduates who don't move in with their boyfriends or a flatmate have hardly a hope of affording somewhere to live. Especially ones like me who've done a year of an MA too and don't have a job yet. I just... I'm bored, man, and I'm so fucking sick and fucking tired of the bickering. My mum bickers with my dad who bickers with my brother who bickers with my mum who bickers with my brother and then they all shout at me too.

Anyway, on Tuesday I headed into London to stay with my grandad so I didn't have to get up at some insane hour to get to Waterloo the next morning. We watched some of the Olympic swimming and gymnastics- was pretty much the first time I'd bothered with the Olympics.

( Trains, Cemeteries and Museums. All in one day. )

Tomorrow...

So I might not be around a lot tomorrow, because....

I'm meeting zorb !! Yes indeed, in less than twelve hours I should be prancing around Madam Tussaud's with zorb ! Am very excited to meet her, not least cos she'll be the first fandom person I'll get to meet in person!

And you know, I never turn down the opportunity to go to Madam T's.

 

PS. Had a very weird dream about Scott Gorham, the Thin Lizzy guitarist the other day. Not dodgy or anything, but weird. I think I was starring in a horror movie. As Katie Holmes. And Scott Gorham was there for some reason.

UK Walk of Fame Opens...

Jimmy Page opens UK Walk Of Fame.

It's the second bit of news down the page. I just have one question, really:

Where were the other two? Were they even invited?

God love Jimmy, and so do I, but without the other three members of Led Zeppelin, he'd be a poor man's Eric Clapton. Or a rich man's Jeff Beck. ;)
