Proper Fucked
I am, as the title states, very tired. It’s been a Hell of a long week. After the gig Monday and Jitsu Tuesday I then finally finished painting my room on Wednesday night. I’m so glad to have finally gotten rid of every last trace of the hideous fuckin’ purple/lilac that was in there. I’ve also had a bit of a reverse on the ‘Morrocan theme’ after thinking about the type of bed I’m getting and stuff. I think I’ll keep it kinda classy, period English/French style now; walnut furniture, nice paintings (got my eye on some John Singer Sargents, prints obviously) and I’m going to lighten it up a bit by having like cream curtains and bedding. Last night I got my haircut, which I was in dire need of; I always want to grow it really long but then I reach this kind of impasse where I just look like a scruff, rather than intentionally scruffy so I’ve had it chopped back to a sort of ruffled Beatles type cut I guess. Apparently I look like Mark Ronson when it’s like this, maybe that’s just the skinny grey suit and ES 335 I have though. I also went to the library to kill some time and rented a few CDs: Last Night - Moby, a Tift Merrit one I forget the name of, Ys - Joanna Newsom and The Life Pursuit by Belle And Sebastian. They’re all ones I’ve wanted to hear for a while but never got round to buying. Thank God for public spending. I went for a drink with Neil and Tony Blair last night (yes, we have a friend called Tony Blair) and it was a laugh but I ended up staying out far too late on a work night and it again re-iterated my feelings that I am too old to go clubbing and that it is basically rubbish. I feel like I’m just going through the motions. Neil has a date tonight so I’m going to go home and chill out, cook a nice risotto, maybe work on some songs (the fear that I’ll forget how to play them before I get them recorded is huge right now) and I feel like watching some Akira Kurosawa movies. I’m going to detox for a while too, picking myself up some nice mineral water, tea and maybe some M & Ms for a weekend treat. I’ve got an early start for Jiujitsu at 10am tomorrow…
Hope everyone is good and well and again, I’m sorry I’m not responding to stuff much. The internet is coming to the flat next Friday, so it will be business as usual from then! x
