Walk Like an Egyptian (is this racist?)


Have you got the right stuff? (I saw them live in concert you know? Aren't I cool!)

Photos of life

Yeah I know this aint flickr or anything, but still here are some photos of my existence


The thought of canellini beans appeals to me more than its actual taste


Who doesn't like receiving flowers? I just hate it when they die and stink out the vase.



It's like they're in my TV and I'm photographing them - good on Paramount to screen two episodes of Seinfeld twice a day. Guess which episode?


When you can't think of what to get someone, get them a candle, or a photo frame... Our house is full of these things.


I'm trying to grow herbs in our little balcony - some die, some succeed either way we rarely use them in cooking

Looking at the above photos it seems my life boils down to flowers, candles, cooking and herbs, God I'm such a giirrrlll.. At least there's Seinfeld.

Insecty broccoli

I had to spel chekc broccoli - i thought it was two ls.
Anyway, following on from the hairy muffin, I discovered insects in my Tesco bought broccoli (shee i keep wanting to spell it brocolli, or broccolli) anyway, what is with these big name institutions? So I bought the broc (lets just call it that) and put it in my veg compartment - lucky it was plastic wrapped - when I took it out to make a stirfry I noticed all these little insects crawling inside the plastic packaging - no idea what the insects were but they closely resembled lice. Anyway, the said broc is off to Tesco's customer complaint department - packaging alone cost me £2! So I better get that back. Unless of course Royal Mail choose to destroy it or, throw away packages containing insecty vegetables - shoot shouldn't have added the talcum powder in the package... Hm, anyway, to be continued.

PDAs

Also known as Public Displays of Affection. You're into each other, you want to show the world - that's great! Just don't go overboard - yeah I know its spring and everything and the birds and the bees are at it - even the pigeons under my window are going for it - anyone see birds having sex? How does it work? Hm, I dont think i'll contemplate that any further. We were in the park over the weekend - finally a bit of glorious sunny weather after all the rain (its a wet drought apparently) and cold in June (!) - we lay out our blanket and stretched out in the sun, when we are distracted by the couple lying a few feet away from us. Hmm, lot of bobbing up and down in the grass - what's that - surely not we think. I mean, they were lying right next to a public pathway - if you really want to go the whole hog in the outdoors at least find a more private spot! Then they were half naked, and the guy, his arm and later his head... well lets just say he really liked pleasing his woman. All this out in the open for everyone to see. Soon we got bored of them and instead started looking at the expressions on the passers-by - these cyclists almost peddled into a tree. Then the guy gets up in his tiny black briefs and decides for no apparent reason to pull down his short (thankfully only in the back) and show his arse to the world. All this reminds me that the Brits can only handle the sun in small doses - also when it does finally get sunny they go crazy. What's that about mad dogs and englishmen...? ;)

Writing overload

I'm half-arsedly working on a play with a dramaturg, about to start a year long screenwriting course this week, half-arsedly writing a novel, working on a short story to be published this year and just finished with two short plays. My mind is like garbage. Now if only I could do something full-arsedly rather than a lot of things half-arsedly. Damn laziness! Damn procrastination!
