Things that make you go hm...

So January's come and gone, February's almost over. Where does the time go? I must be getting old. It snowed so that was exciting... For a day. Covering up all the shit on the London streets. What else?
- Our bathroom was flooding so we had to move out till they fix it - who knows when that will be as the builders havent been on the job for the last two days.
- We are staying in this temporary accommodation - this guy's flat - in his bedroom he has a big picture of a naked woman her face tied up with a white cloth, her hands tied behind her back, backing into a cement wall like she's about to be shot. But hey its in black and white so it must be arty....
- In an attempt to waste as much time as possible online, I joined Myspace. I've got no friends, well, 10.
- I partied like it's well... 2007... on a tuesday night. That was exciting.
- The place was called Favela Chic and I pondered the ethics of marketing poverty - you can just imagine them saying - its like we'll take the shanty town concept, put it in East London and have all the marketing execs from Hoxton pay £8 for cocktails and pretend they're slumming it. Ha ha ha ha. How they must have laughed.
- Had the obligatory Valentine's dinner - even though I wrote an anti-Valentine's play. All the couples on the tables next to us were pretending to make an extra effort to be romantic, to actually listen to what their partners were saying, but I bet everyone was thinking when can I get home and undo my belt buckle.
- A couple entered the restaurant and said they won't be eating, they'll only be having champagne. The woman looked like she was out of a French movie and I imagined what it would be like to have her cigarette and champagne lifestyle. She'll probably be dead by the time she's 40, but who cares when you're thin and pouty?

I don't think I could go out and only have champagne - farting competitions and necking Gaviscon all night are NOT romantic!
