Sometimes I think a sausage bap can solve anything

About Me

I am a girl mostly. I go by many names, but never my own. I like to assume this is because I am multifaceted and interesting. I suspect it is because I am bullied and taken advantage of by the tall of this world. There are a number of things I would like to do with my [short] time on this planet of yours. Some more valid than others… like my desire to adopt a three-legged cat, that will bring me both pleasure and pain when I look at it.Breaks. My. Heart.
Much of my insides have changed in the past three years and I wish to get around to displaying these on the outside at some point. [Note: this does not mean I plan to gut myself and assemble an organ display with brown parcel string and sellotape.] Time is spent thinking. And writing. And thinking about writing. Other time is spent salivating. And eating. And salivating whilst eating.
I like to have something to look after at all times, it makes me feel useful and allows me to think of new nice things to do for people/animals/potted plants/inanimate shreds of paper. By the time I am an older Flic, I wish to have travelled to all the places I can’t remove from my daily thoughts and done all the dangerous things that make me want to cream myself [in a good way, what other way is there]. I also wish to own a snowboard and be a regular user of it. Having some work published/broadcast would be fairly pleasant but if this never occurs, I will appreciate having something to aim for. ETERNALLY. Damn it.
I am looking forward to the day when my bodily energy catches up with my mind. And the day I meet someone who wants to run away and play for a while, maybe a long time. Don’t worry, I will look after you. And also the day when I am happy to be still again. That’s when I will get my eight-hob stainless steel super duper oven with hood and self-sharpening kitchen knives, get good at DIY, choose paint and FINALLY get a vegetable patch. Only then, will I die a happy midget.

I AM RATHER FOND OF EDWARD MONKTON, STOOPID CARTOONS AND RUBBISH STICK MEN...
Perhaps when I am a grown up I too will spend my days drawing silly pictures and jellymen AND get paid for it, whilst being adored by equally silly human beans and unstable people.
THINGS TO DO IN YOUR SPARE TIME; FLIC RECOMMENDATIONS...
I am a great believer in the wise riddles of Jonathan Cainer, astrologer to the intelligent... you too can check out his bearded wiseness daily at www.cainer.com and revel in its accurateness. And know this: What Cainer says goes.
KING CAINER: RECENTLY BEARDED ========
Watch Mary Poppins and remember just how shiny the boys forehead is, whilst marvelling at how much the mother's voice sounds like Cerys from Catatonia.
Note, through your tiredness, just how big quality late night entertainment programme 'Quizmania's' blonde female presenters' eyes are. Though your calls to win much needed money and rid the phonelines of STUPID members of the public (eg. "Name an animal you find in a zoo" - caller one: "a cow", caller two: "Richard Attenborough") will ALWAYS be unsuccessful, you can rest safe in the knowledge that you have witnessed the biggest peepers since Audrey Tatou.
I heart this scene [and the film in general] more than most things in the entire world...

My Interests

Drunken tinned spaghetti fights, cooking roast dinners for lazy people, food in general, small things - real small

I'd like to meet:

My soulmate preferably... but if not then Alanis Morissette will do

Music:

Anything including a guitar, good lyrics or an unusual voice... Alanis, Natalie Imbruglia, Beverley Knight, KT Tunstall, Jack Johnson, James Morrision, Lucie Silvas, The Thrills, Willeth Young, Mary J Blige, The Cranberries, Joni Mitchell, Maroon 5, Eagle Eye Cherry - or alternatively, lots

Movies:

In no particular order... like the XFactor results:American Beauty, anything made by legendary Stanley Kuberz, all that is French (esp. Mr Jeunet), Evil, the funniest Disney film EVER The Sword in the Stone, The Graduate, Closer, Fight Club, Seven, Baz Luhrmann stuff, Little Miss Sunshine, Wicker Park, Vanilla Sky, Great Expectations, The Kill Bills, a dash of David Lynch, Sex and Lucia, Match Point, Meet Joe Black, anything that makes me squirm effectively, an ongoing search for well-done thrillers (The Life of David Gale, The Usual Suspects, What Lies Beneath)and rom-coms (How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, the original and best Bridget Jones) and anything else I can get my grubby mitts on that doesn't involve a singer/dancer's plight to make it big. Eurgh.OFFICIALLY my favourite scene. You should love it too.

Television:

Six Feet Under, Desperate Housewives (minus irrelevant voiceover), The League of Gentlemen (come back!), Smack the Pony, Nip/Tuck, Location Location Location, Property Ladder (Beany is queen), Green Wing, Bad Girls (Darleen Cake and Bodybag... possibly the best characters on Brit TV eveeeer), Pre-Bon Jovi Old School Ally McBeal, the comedy that is Neighbours, Peep Show, documentaries about the world's bizarre and unfortunate folk

Books:

Anything by Marian Keyes (for laughs), Chuck Palaniuk (for weirdos), Shakespeare (for absolute lushousness), well-written screenplays in all their glorious variety and sharpness... and Alex Garland should write more

Heroes:

"I love the way you push my buttons, so much sometimes I want to strangle you"(Thanks Alanis)
Lynn-Smithe: Fake toff with all the makings of a great working class miner. Our relationship exists primarily as a mutual humour appreciation tool, allowing us to bask in each other's wit between food discussions and celebrity arguments. Strongest midget I have the pleasure to know, a storm at karaoke, the world's finest grimace and an immediate cure to my bad moods. ARTICULATE.
Sophia Le Brooks: Otherwise known as my left arm. Hooked from the very first dirty look, I have since discovered the most interesting person life has thrown at me thus far. Despite an inability to locate passports and leave on time, her unique brand of sillyness keeps me smiling through long train journeys and godawful days. I have learnt more from her than 50 teachers and a lifetime in statuatory education.
Bojangles: A'Court reminds me of a character out of a fairytale. Short of talking to the animals, her sweetness and innocence radiates like a Disney Princess and even when she tries to bully me I just can't take her seriously. We share carols and rhymes, jolly cooking expeditions, foul language and character attacks. She will always be long, I will always be short. And no matter how hard I try to scare her with my weird thoughts, she simply refuses to judge me (bitch). Smiles aplenty, I will always take pleasure in telling her tales of tortured fluffy animals.
Julie McGriff: My aunty and childhood inspiration. Unafraid of bodily functions, scary/angry people, breaking the rules, eating enough to feed eight and most importantly, of living, she proved that you can be best friends with your family. Globe-trotting, stew-making, volatile, alcohol-swilling (yet respectable) lady of the highest order. Amen.
Rachel-Anne-Fitzgerald: Single-handedly reared eachother through the most laughter-cram-packed years of my short life thus far. Despite getting her long hair trapped irrevocably in a battery-powered fan excavated from the board game 'Operation', she was my walking, trekking, bike-riding, exploring, adventure-seeking, inquisitive, mischief-making, food-eating best bud of the 90's and made me laugh more than anyone else in history (on a relative no. of laughs-per-day scale). I miss her and thank her for joining me in my refusal to grow up/wear make-up/shag boys at 13/pretend to be cool protest.
