I love Jade
A maaaaaassive tribute to my absolutely wonderful hairdresser, Jade Ogden.
You did such a good job today… you make me paying £38 each time feel COMPLETELY worth it. THANK YOU :):):)

Also, Rory the coffee boy… you didn’t do too badly either. 7 out of 10 for your efforts, hahahaah.

Serendipity
Jonathan: This is the ultimate blend to drink. How'd you find this place?
Sara: I first came in because of the name: Serendipity. It's one of my favorite words.
Jonathan: It is? Why?
Sara: It's such a nice sounding word for what it means: a fortunate accident.
Are you giving in 2000 man?
Grandaddy = VERY, VERY GOOD.
Apart from growing up with their albums, I’ve only ever really listened to one Grandaddy track properly - AM 180. But after Phil very cleverly recorded an episode of TRIGGER HAPPY TV the other day (which I also grew up with), I rediscovered some of Grandaddy’s other stuff as apart from being hilarious, Trigger Happy TV also has some amazing music on it.

I have a new laptop

Thanks to Olly earlier for all his help!!

My highlight of 2009?
Finally seeing Antony and the Johnsons live. May 24th, Colston Hall, Bristol.
Antony Hegarty was incredible and his persona was everything I’d hoped for and more. What made the evening extra special is hearing such an amazing man I have adored and admired for so many years telling the audience that he’d been down White Ladies Road and Black Boy Hill earlier that day - two roads in...
fuck you i won't buy what you sell me
i’m still thriving on rage being christmas number one.
my sister linked me to this earlier which i thought was pretty funny:
silly boy!
Ok, just once more, whilst I finish this game of solitaire off.
… I need to be asleep and I want to turn my laptop off but I really can’t stop listening to this song!! Helppppp.
“I can remember standing by the wall. And the guns shot above our heads and we kissed as though nothing could fall. And the shame was on the other side. Oh we can beat them, for ever and ever. Then we can be heroes, just for one day.”
Heroes and fantasies
My new favourite song is ‘Heroes’ by David Bowie. I have rediscovered it and fallen in love. You can be mean and I’ll drink all the time. Cause we’re lovers, and that is a fact. Yes we’re lovers and that is that.
And you… I keep thinking about you despite our lack of communication and I fantasise about us constantly. I won’t get to see you until I come...
resultttt
i wrote to a bath based promotion company a few weeks ago about any work placements that may be available for me in the new year. i had a response from a guy named steve who said that unfortunately, the company is only small so there’d be no work for me to do BUT that he also works as a promoter for the very famous moles nightclub / venue in bath and that he’d pass my CV on to see if...
Morning Taunton!
Home now and very happy to be :) Although missing my boys and girl to death. They will never know how much I appreciate them. I have my operation tomorrow… who wants to come to my house and keep me company whilst I can’t walk??
P.s I hate how when I take off red nail varnish it stains my fingers pink. Ughh. Manicure next week I think!

Christmas cheer
I am doing absolutely everything in my power right now to put off packing :/ Like seriously, I DON’T KNOW WHERE TO START!
It feels very, very surreal that I’m going home tomorrow and I’ll be there for a whole month. I’m happy to be seeing everyone and spending Christmas with my family and seeing my pup but I’m also very sad to be leaving here. Although I could do...
Growing up
I am always really proud of myself when I do grown up things like sort out our bills and take gas and electricity readings and write cheques and take out contents insurance and read through contracts and terms and conditions and make loads of important phone calls and set up appointments and meetings and cook nutritious meals and email arts management companies and set up direct debits and eat...
48 hours of emotional torment
‘You made me feel immortal but in secret made a joke of me.’
You lifted me higher than I’ve ever been before and pushed me down to rock bottom. You made my heart stop beating and tied my stomach in knots - you made my palms sweaty and my pupils dilate. You glued my phone to my hand and your Facebook profile to my computer screen. You jammed my mind entirely and took away my...
… i think my heart has stopped. oh jesus.
Out in the street, they call it murder.
Reeeeally into my reggae at the moment, particularly Damien Marley.
You should all listen to ‘Still Searching’ from the album ‘Welcome to Jamrock’.
SO...
… last night was interesting!!
I haven’t been kissed as amazingly as you kissed me last night in a long, long time.
THANK YOU.
I am to blame
We are a product of our times. A legacy of messiness of misdirected energies and self obsessive tendencies. And I’ll waste no more time in wanting what can never be. Those friendships numb to nothing now, I hope you can remember me in kindness or in empathy at least; like I remember you. I know that I am who I am for having been a friend to you. I know now, first hand, that regretting love...
my mother:
uneven-footsteps:
My Mum said these two things in the space of 5 minutes when we were eating this evening:
“Before you go can you help me put the TV on channel 5 please?”
AND
“Oh, but I thought MSN and Facebook were the same thing…”
Hahaaa… Mother and technology.. deary me.
Haha, Mum is so funny! And she knows Facebook and MSN are different things so I dunno what she’s on about...
