THE GREAT VIDEO DEBATE: before I proceed any further let me ask you to answer the following query: should I continue posting videos up top in giant format as they have been? Or should they go in miniature on my sidebar? Or should I give up posting such timewasting trash?? You decide!!
O man what was I going to post today...?
O yeah! I finally started my funky memoirs... a full 800 words (2 pages. big deal) but I wrote it out... now I just gotta complete an entire first chapter. Perhaps Sly and the Family Stone helped me out with trumpeteer Cynthia Robertson's jazzery toodle-doo-ing. Or something.
I had the most horrible protracted drawn out nasty nightmare last night... the type of dream that once you wake up from you cannot explain what the problem was.. except I was being chased by accusers... and as usual had done nothing wrong... and seemed to spend vast amounts of time on rooves and guttering and flying between different building-tops... (as you do...)
My miniature Porkshire Terriers now live in a giant 18 in long bedroom... the original Xmas Maltesers tube is now extended with 2 slotted-in toilet rolls and a third sticking out at an L-shaped angle... They hide in this all day like baby gremlins. And sniff my fingers suspiciously if I dare to venture them in. And run away if I dare touch, poke, attempt to pick up anyone except Baby Itchy. Ho-humm.
Matran and Laundretta seem to be having a giant crack binge. I know this as all sorts of "guests" have been showing up at their door (a sure sign there's drugs in the offing)...
Even though I did post up about their 8am underwear bizarreness lockout when I dealt with them and handed out endless pairs of scissors, knives, plastic travelcards to bust the lock open I never once sneered or refused to was anything less than civil... possibly for this reason they keep giving me big lumps of the stuff (well they did twice which is so unlike them)... but WHY?!?
Righto and here better endeth the present vulgarteering... I have cod in parsley sauce in my bag that is melting beside me... am I the only one sweating like a swine on conkers this afternoon? It has been ROASTING hot for the past two days...
Videos:
Kylie Minogue: Giving You Up
Lilly Allen: LDN
That Lilly Allen song is pretty cool.
ReplyDeleteI voted! 800 words, woowee you've been working hard. Hope you're as good as Mr Maupin . . .lol
ReplyDeleteDefinitely giant on top for me Gleds, part of visiting your site of late has been that anicipation of what music clip/video will appear today, so varied,often coming as a complete surprise...I for one would miss it if it disappeared..and always LOVE!!the update on the miniture porkshire terriers would miss that too if it went..so descriptive its easy to imagine those little fur balls getting on with life..lol
ReplyDeleteAnd keep writing those memoirs...
Have a good weekend, Ive got 16 days annual leave ..WHOOPEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
I can't make decisions today...It's the weekend here already! Gimme a break! ;)
ReplyDeleteI like the videos. You bring some to my attention that I hadn't thought of for ages and some are new to me.
ReplyDeleteSly & The Family Stone for instance - I used to LOVE their "Everyday People". Reminds me of my childhood.
I'm sweating too lately....but still not quite feeling right.
Interesting blog. I found you via Cheezy. :)
ReplyDeleteHi GLeds...I voted. 800 words, that's a pretty good effort...keep going.
ReplyDeleteI'm also writing and it's taken me six months to do five chapters...in rough draft. Ho hum, I guess I'll get there.
Take care and keep on keeping on.
anything about lily allen should be in big huge letters at the top of the page, LOL
ReplyDeleteDiesel: only thing about Lily Allen is that exaggerated London accent of hers... if I'm not mistaken she grew up in a 4 or 5 storey house in Highgate which is where Annie Lennox and other people of her ilk reside... her dad's a famous actor (ok he has a fairly Cockney voice)... went to private school... i don't know
ReplyDeleteher music is quite good though
Shaz: but that IS only 2 pages! (or 4 in my squiggly handwriting...)
Lee: I can hardly blame you. i can't either. that's why i put the pole up
Audrey: trust me to get the order wrong... it is 11:51 am saturday morn... the furry gremlins are hiding in an L-shaped contraption made out of 3 toilet tubes
ReplyDeleteDeb: go to the drs!... having said that I can predict what he/she will say: it is post-viral residual symptomology come back if you still feel bad in 3 weeks. do you have to pay for the dr in Canada? Ours are totally free. But I still hate going. I was having a discussion with someone the other day and we both agreed we would never go if we had to pay... having said that i've not been to my gp/family dr for over 2 years
Miz UV: are you named after psychedelic blacklights?
Puss-in-Boots: Keep writing... only way I ever managed it was to force myself into doing it 6 days a week... (always had one day off)... but a chapter a month isn't bad.. is it a completed chapter tho, or a draught? or a draft? (whichever)
ReplyDeleteJason: already is, haha!
