and we gave it time, all eyes are on the clock

I am still here, you know. Life just seems to be getting in the way. Plus, I still haven’t got my Berlin films developed. And that’s what we’re all waiting for, really.

’cause if anyone doesn’t need to worry, girl, it’s you

…With the palms zipping past and the big sun burning down on the road ahead, I had a flash of something I hadn’t felt since my first months in Europe – a mixture of ignorance and a loose, ‘what the hell’ kind of confidence that comes on a man when the wind picks up and he begins to move in a hard straight line toward an unknown horizon.

may your days be merry and bright, and may all your christmases be white

DAYS OFF.

It’s been ages – years, probably – since I’ve had guilt-free days off. Thanks to my situation post-graduation (yeah, that graduation that I didn’t even go to – so left-wing), my days off have come to be little but an opportunity to job-hunt and better myself. Obviously, I’m human, and sometimes I need days off and holidays to recuperate, so it doesn’t always go that way. If I do ever have a day off on which I laze around or drink booze, I always have tinge in the back of my mind that I should be doing something more productive. In the last couple of weeks, however, with a little bit of work experience and some freelance work on my side (hopefully marking a shift in my luck and some promise for my future) I have felt that guilt lifting, ever so slightly. Not that I’ve had a day off, of course. But today, I do! My first in 20 days. My parents are on their way up, my guilt’s on it’s way down, and we’re going to shop and, naturally, drink booze. For this reason, this is my only fad this week. I literally couldn’t concentrate on one more thing. (Except the dentist. More on that feat another day.) And in celebration of this day off? Ska.

her love for me is wider than the ocean

Not entirely sure what’s happened to me this week, besides not going to the gym, getting more job rejections, wishing it would get colder more quickly, worrying about Troy Davis and listening to Ernie K-Doe on repeat. Other than that I’ve bought a lovely new jumper! Hence wishing the temperature would take a tumble. But more on that [beautiful navy fisherman's knit] another day.

do they take ‘em for espresso? yeah, i guess so.

As I type this to you, I’m sitting on my boy’s fancy new computer feeling ultra important and as though I should be doing something extremely creative and clever. Alas, I’m looking for fascinating documentaries and idly searching for inspiring/aesthetically pleasing blogs, as always. In fact, this computer feels so fancy – I think it’s all in the sitting-at-the-desk thing, as opposed to my usual lounging on the sofa with a diet coke and my comfy old laptop (I daren’t bring a diet coke near this thing) – that I actually feel a bit like Carrie did when she tried to work in Alexander Petrovsky’s house. Ok, this computer is not that fancy, but he did build it himself, so I feel I should attach some higher importance to it. (I know, I thought only geeks and loners built computers too – apparently we’re wrong about that).

Anyway, I suppose I should make use of my wider blogging space (did you notice? Thanks to the boy for sorting that out for me). What better way than with a wonderful artwork. I haven’t posted one for ages, and what could be better (slash cheesier) than Connie Francis singing those Italian Classics we all know and love. Ha!

laisse tomber les filles
