About Me

MyGen Profile GeneratorOh, everything's fine. The new flat has turned out to be quite roomy and toasty. I am even coping with the non-luxury electric ring cooker. It's not what we had planned but at least we get to stay in the Surb (I didn't really want to leave...). I am just holding out for Spring now when everything's better anyway.

My Interests

Great books and films. Relaxing with my Tris and friends. Kitty cats and other funny animals. Looking for inspiration (still not found it). Food. Wine. Bubble baths. Good kitchen knives. Throwing away clutter. Dancing around by myself in my knickers - which I think is related to my desire to be a real burlesque girl.

I'd like to meet:

It's just good to keep in touch with people I don't get to see very often.

Music:

Love The Dresden Dolls (love you Amanda Palmer), MUSE, Amy Winehouse - just good stuff really. I am expecting great things from Mika.

Movies:

Reality Bites, True Romance, Battle Royale, Edward Scissorhands, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Bring it On, Pieces of April, Mermaids, Hero, Footloose, Kill Bill, Secretary, The Star Maker, first Matrix (the second two suck), Royal Tennenbaums, Chasing Amy, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Before/After Sunset.

Television:

Finally understand and love the West Wing. Worryingly into Hollyoaks right now.

Books:

Ian McEwan, Chuck Paluhniuk (sp), Sarah waters, Philip Pullman, Virginia Woolf, Anne Tyler, carol Shields...

Heroes:

Brave people who do what they want.

Right now

I'm so fucking happy. Old friends we haven't seen for year are coming to stay because they're stranded in London and I'm drinking wine and listening to Coheed and Cambria. All is well with me this ver...

Just a thought

God, my last blog was so grumpy. To be honest, I'm not in an amazing mood right now but that's mainly because I'm hungry and my hip has been a bit locked today. I'm feeling good these days though beca...

My birthday

Has come and gone and I've been stuck in the house sick - and unable to speak. Yep this was the one week I couldn't afford to get ill. I have a verrrry tight deadline at work involving about 20 phone ...

Today...

...was the worst day of my life. OK, not including when my mum left us and my sixth form boyfriend broke up with me. Anyway, it's been really bad. Just to let all our lovely well-wishing friends know ...

Time...

...for a new blog. Sober, this time and feeling very Spring-like which is a mistake I always make when the sun comes out in January. Today I realised that I am basically a naturist. I feel very comfo...

Tipsy ramblings

Whenever I'm left alone I get a bit drunk. There's this lovely melancholy. It just makes me nostalgic. My mother and sister tell me this is normal behaviour but I'm not sure. They aren't the most whol...

Soooo much stuff

Quite a lot has been going on recently, but only in terms of being busy busy busy. Trying to buy a flat has been a bit of a mare because our dream place turned out to be in the drugs capital of Surbit...

I feel different

Nothing specific. I just feel a bit more connected to the world. A bit more like fun things are mine to be had. I think it's come from kayaking this week in Brittany. A year ago in Brittany I would ha...

Clothes rant

I'm fed up with not being able to buy anything I can get my bottom into! High street fashion has been totally highjacked by the anorexia-brigade (Thanks a lot Nicole) and it's apparently considered 'n...

Sylvie

I have finally seen the legendary probably-the-best dancer in the world, Sylvie Guillem live on stage at Sadler's Wells. She is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen, in that not only is she an incr...
