The Crackhead on the Stairs

O NO! History is repeating itself... there's a crackhead sleeping (not piping as in the pic: that was the best crackhead picture I could find...) on the stairs. SHE (yes another she) hasn't washed in days and appears to have a bad case of "crack lung"... at night you hear her coughing outrageously. Nasty business...

I got totally freaked out the other night having conked out with the radio on doing phone-ins at full blast... I wake at 3:30 am in the dark and alone with a woman describing vividly the demonic voices that have plagued her head since the age of 15... she describes some weird childhood occult cult meetings she was frequently taken to... claims the voices are down to Voodoo, the implantation of a demon in the head by the adversary to gain advantage. And all throughout this shadowy conversation, which was about as heartwarming as a candle flickering inside a human skull on the Altar of Satan, some cracked-out weirdo is creaking this way and that back and forth along our hallway... UGH! A seriously unpleasant night!!

And so on to my hamsters... who are all as furry as ever and were pinging in a Roborovski Donkey Derby (TM) between gazing up at me adoringly before I left to come here...

Have a cheery day y'all..!

VIDEO: BARBRA STREISAND SINGS "EVERGREEN" in French!



VIDEO 2: DJ TIESTO ~ DJ AS GOD...



PS Next week, at long last, the tell-all expose on Madonna the world has been thus-far lacking. Written by her brother (the one who appears as Chief Consoler) in that Truth or Dare movie...

  1. Hi Gleds, your'e having an early start today ... hope you have had some breakfast. Oh no what is it about people and stairs with you lol.

    That would have been like waking to find yourself in another nightmare ... the radio and the stair person.

    Is it raining or sunny there today?

  3. I had a Mars Bar five minutes ago so I HAVE had breakfast thankyouverymuch!!

    O yeah you're dead right about the radio and the stairs person that was horrible!

  4. Ok I have no maternal instincts but my lips are pursing motherlike and I'm in-drawing my breath as I mutter Mars Bar isn't a breakfast. In between meals I can accept and often do lol ;)

    That's surprising that the movie isn't available on DVD ... I'd like to see it again now you've reminded me*!*

  5. I managed to see the Julie Garland version on video when I still had a library ticket and not bigger fines than the Angolan national debt...

    hey a Mars bar might not be breakfast but it DID taste just like those legendary bars of the 1970s (dunno why!)

    Hey can we have some more rainbow lorries and red parrots... or have they flown oop north to avoid tut winter...?

  6. ... will get you some Rainbow Lorries, your favourite King Parrot has gone flyabout somewhere sunnier but I'll trawl through the photos from Summer and get some coloured feathers up for you in my next post*!* Yawn, my day's over ... enjoy the rest of yours Gleds byeeeeeeeee*!*

  8. Wow you have Amy Winehouse living in your hall?

    That demon thing is s-c-a-r-y!

  9. Sorry mumsy moment for me too! Mars bars aren't a food group (although I know plenty who would disagree). She who haunts the stairs sounds a bit disturbing, I hope she isn't a permanent fixture! SNAP . . I'm a 3:30am rouser as well!

  12. Demonic crackheads sound scary. You might have to add her as a character in your forthcoming fiction novel with the slavering hellhound English Mastiff that chews the wheels off of prams scaring babies and grown men alike... or is it the crackhead that chews the wheels off of prams????

  13. Oh dear, another crackhead...just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water!

    Hope the NA is going well and glad the furries still love you...they should, you feed them!

    Have a good week, Gleds.

  14. geez, just what you need gleds...was hoping you'd get some peace and quiet.

    I loved Evergreen too.

    I often wake up in the night with the TV on and some of the late night programs really freak me out. I don't like that feeling at all.

  15. Bimbimbie: I thought they'd gone on seed-migrations interstate... probably up Northern Territory... thanxx v much for the messages...

    Whitenoise: she's gone. Last seen begging annoyingly outside Tesco's supermarket where SHE asked ME for a £5er!!!!

    Monogram: Amy Winehouse..? If only! I'd get her to sing me a song + donate me a million dollars..!!

    Baino: I reluctantly do agree re the Marsbars food groups "thang"... as for the craxxtable on the stairs, thankfully that critter's gone back to da room

    (Can't STAND people who creak around communal parts of the house. Particularly spookily so at circa 3.30am when Voodoo phone-ins are on..!)

  16. Sofia: have a great time. I try to stay strong always but only a "higher power" ie the power of God Almighty allows me to do this

    Anon: I hope your day is better now...

    Molson: I think it's going to be the Mastiff piping crack and the demon chewing wheels off the prams..(!!)

    Puss-in-Boots: I am fed up of crackheads!

    Debs: here here! Nighttime media can be pretty unnerving I agree with that too!

  17. Is there no treatment center for the crackhead on the stairs?

  19. Hey Gleds, just thought I'd let you know. Sad news Olive Riley died this weekend aged 108! Now that's what I call a good innings bless her! I'm just sorry I only found her a couple of months ago. Just thought you'd like to know.

  20. Saw Tiesto at God's Kitchen years ago.

    He dos good sets, certainly.

    But It was when Judge Jules came, me getting tickets was a dead cert.

  21. Nick: Craxtable's not been back for ages... I wonder if she's all right or in hospital or something...(?)

    Baino: thanks so much for the message... I only got it today Monday 21.7.8, a bit late... but thanks v much for the thought. Well she definitely had a good innings did Olive!!!

    Crushed:
    Tiesto is after my time as I gave up clubbing in 2000 and have only been to about 3 or 4 parties in the entire time since then (and I used to go out literally EVERY week: it got so repetative that I started going out STRAIGHT just so I could feel fresh and unfrazzled next day and for some variety (weirdly I remember the straight nights as being just as much fun as the ones on E which surely says something about taking XTC as a semi-compulsory thing "because you won't have a good time unless you do it"... know what I mean?

    I never went anywhere Judge J was playing... he was too starry for the likes of us. Our biggest DJ was called Phil Reynolds I reckon. Also Mark Sinclair thought he was God... Beamish and Oberon from Samsara

    my favourite night was Return to the Source... I found a flyer randomly on the street when I happened to be in London for the day (b4 I lived there by a couple of years)... a picture of Buddha in red and blue and the logo advertising this clubnight and I remember thinking THIS I HAVE TO GO TO and when I did finally get there IT WAS AMAZING!!

    (v tribal)

    Wasn't Jules resident at that Gatecrasher night oop north in Leeds or somewhere?

    All I remember of that (from the music press, not personal experience) was lots of 14-year old looking girlies with stickie stars over the eyebrows
