SICK

I appear to have been rather ill this last 24 hours.... i've been sick, twice & been a bit rear endy aswell!

Thing is i'm not quite sure how or why i have been ill. For one i very rarely throw up, so that was a shocker & well the poo has just been a bit bizarre. There is a couple of things that could have caused this, 3 glasses of champagne & half a bottle of wine... Or it could have been eating really rather late last night, my body not digesting the food... Or the tremendously chocolatey pudding... Or it could be the lamb, apparently lamb does not agree with me, everytime i've eaten it in the last year or so it have given me a dicky tummy!

Or this is probably bollocks, but maybe my body doesn't want me to eat meat....

Sorry for the slight wrongness of this post, but ho hum this what has happened in the last 24 hours!

LEFT OUT

I have an overwhelming feeling of being left out at the moment. 

I'm not really sure why I've been feeling this way, I shouldn't be feeling this way... pretty sure I'm not being left out of things. Just feel a bit out of the loop & like I am stagnating. Kind of feels like when you get water in your ears & you can't really hear what people are saying... maybe that is a dreadful analogy!?

Also trying not to dwell on this feeling, but alas I'm  dramatic soul, so no matter what good stuff is going on in my little life, I focus on the durge at the bottom & fixate & almost wallow in my own self pity... hence this little ol' blog post!!

Teeny weeny brainwave whilst writing this, I always feel like this at this time of year...

It's my yearly existential crisis... I have a birthday coming up, it's probably something about Mercury in flux or some sort of malarky (which I only partially believe in ((LIES)) )

It'll pass in a week or so, but only if I have a good birthday... maybe I should pull a strop & go all organisational Nazi about the whole affair, though then stuff could still go wrong, ah the little issues that I take to heart!

A TABLE & A CHAIR

A table & a chair is what i need to complete 'the studio'. Yesterday I cleared the studio & it really didn't take too long. Maybe thats because I made an amazing playlist, that i'm still listening to now.

Well it was almost cleared, as clear as it could have been without completely taking the rest of the flat over with the random crap i'd accumulated! But look there is carpet....amazing.

So, once it was clear I was left with this....

Now, in this picture it doesn't look like much stuff, but trust me it was a hell of a lot of crap, most of which got thrown away or found a place for it to hide.

This is now what i'm calling a good starting point for my studio dream... all I need is a desk, a fairly long one that isn't too deep, which is becoming a challenge already, as every desk/table I have seen is short & too deep... even the idea of just getting a bit of wood & some legs is looking a tad complicated!! Also it needs to work for both The Partner & myself.

So, that was my Sunday... & I did a darn good job...& the music was excellent, a glorious mix of campy dance, hipster indie & fantastic 80's HI-NRG.

More to come in the adventures of the studio, there may even be some art to show soon....

SLIGHT AUTISTIC TENDANCY

According to The Partner & several others (my parents) I have an amazing talent that verges on the autistic... I only need to hear a song once & I will know almost all the words, the pitch of vocal & the length of note! I thought I was completely normal, but apparently its my obsessive gift.

This brings me onto the actual belly of this post... MUSIC I'M CURRENTLY LOVING AT THE MOMENT!!!! It is such a terrifying mix of styles, that I find totally natural & have no shame in admitting my undying love for each & every piece of music



J'adore RuPaul, every aspect, I am rather obsessed with her/him at the moment, RuPauls Drag Race for those who are not my way inclined is possibly the greatest. campest programme on telly... a mixture of ANTM, Project Runway & American Idol/X Factor, gloriously camp & fronted by RuPaul looking more like Tyra Banks than Tyra herself.



Metronomy are just amazing the album that this song is taken from The English Riviera is so gloriously British... & this song is yummy with its end of the pier organ & adorable sea gulls... LOVE

There are about a million other songs i'm loving at the moment, but alas its late & I can't really be bothered to hunt down videos, so I shall just list them & you lovely people can go hunting yourselves safe in the knowledge that you trust my taste.... haha

Right then here goes, Mother Mother any song, all 3 albums are immense
Nicola Roberts - Lucky Day, bit contentious but frigging good fun
The Saturdays - All Fired Up, gay anthemtastic! 
Pj Harvey - Let England Shake (Mercury Prize winner 2011 YAY) a brilliant collection of protest songs, or any of her other albums... i'm not choosy!

WELL THIS IS DREADFUL

Instead of getting off my bum & beginning the mega sort of what will become my studio, I am sitting watching the barrel of talent being scraped. Yes unfortunately I am watching The X Factor...I hate The X Factor, it makes me sad inside.

But I am transfixed... transfixed with this SHIT!! 

Art has been replaced by dreadful Saturday prime time TV.

I could even go out, but...

DAMN YOU DYLAN

Yes thats right, damn you Dylan http://dylansdiscreetdiary.blogspot.com/ i've still got that song stuck in my head..... well not a song, more a movie theme style music!



Yes, yes I have the theme from Jurrasic Park stuck in my head, it has been stuck in my head since Tuesday.... i've been whistling it all day bloody every day.... *shakes fists*

I also have Hava Nagila stuck in my head, this is also Dylans fault, but I don't mind it.

I don't mind having either of them stuck in head, Dylan is awesome & looks like Jessica Rabbit! 

NEW BRAND NEW NEW NEW

Well hello there... 

I'm back, i'm going to blog more frequently & hopefully more interestingly!



Right here goes, in my flat, i'm ment to have a studio (the spare room) for me to do arting & such, my own creative space, the only problem is that since I moved in, 11 months ago, it has become a junk room, half my arty farty malarky is still in boxes, canvases are gathering dust, paint is solidifying...

But NO MORE... I will have studio I can use god damn it, also it helps that 'the partner' is now studying an OU course so needs a desk & somewhere quiet to write essays & such.

This will become my studio/'the partners' study space...

Look at that mess, even the Christmas tree is in there!!!! I shall of course keep you updated on my progress with pictures & posts. Then hopefully when it's done I shall once again feel creative & able to make art or even just mess around with the beautiful duck egg sewing machine..... HUZZAH
