Actually, I have met Neko. She signed a poster for me. Generally, my "meetings" with celebrities consist of putting something in front of them to sign, and, if I'm feeling particularly courageous, saying "thank you." I DID shake Frank's hand when I met him. I've also met Eloise McGraw, a children's author who wrote a few of the later Oz books. I have not, however, met Scott McCaughey, although I once had a dream where I did.

I'm guessing Holiday Son hasn't met PJ Harvey.

I'm going to do the same meeting thing again.

I also don't think you met PJ
and Vovat, I'm going with a guess at Jian Ghomeshi of Moxy Früvous
(I copied and pasted that you know)

today I

  • wrote a six verse poem about why my friend is a meany

  • drew a pretty good picture of my friend the meany in a straight jacket

  • made up a little song about why my friend is a meany



  • I joined the cult of Derek/ because Dereks don't run

    Nope, Tre does good poems. I don't think she wrote the song as well though.

    I did write the poem in the middle of a two hour lecture on plant genetics, in fact I wrote two poems one long one about being mean and one sweet one that went:

    Roses are red
    A trout is a fish
    I love you Smits
    I think you're delish!

    They took the whole page home with them so I don't remember the mean one so well, I also drew the straight jacket picture but because we have to be quiet in lectures I couldn't make up a little song
    (or I would have)


    (edit) ah, well done simon you're right and I think I have just disproved the "tre does good poems" right there, although better than smits whose response to my declaration of love wrote "thank you tre, you are free" which made me laugh loud enough for the lecturer to notice I think.

    Hehe, it's either Turkey or Portugal right?

    Foiled by your double-posting madness!

    Today I have:

    Played indoor rounders
    Tried and failed to explain the concept of Student Services to some applicants
    Discussed circumcision with women

    You did not play rounders, whatever that is.

    I've never been to England, but when I do, I will doublepost.
    (Dang!)

    I have met

    Norman Mailer
    Margaret Atwood
    Rita Mae Brown

    it's a girls sport.

    K, no Mailer
    Simon I can fully believe you failed to explain things to students (I'm blaming the students here not your good self) so I agree with K

    When I was a young girl I used to
  • go to weekend drama school

  • go to ballroom dancing lessons

  • go to singing classes



  • I joined the cult of Derek/ because Dereks don't run

    No ballroom dancing for you, Tre. But two Norman Mailer
    meetings, not counting his being a former neighbor.
    Try again!

    Atwood then!

    sorry K, did ballroom dancing and drama, drama for dropping most of this brummie accent and dancing allegedly for grace
    (HA!)

    Tonight I
  • watched invasion of the body snatchers

  • spoke to a forum member on the phone who resides in the USA

  • read three storys from gogols diary of a madman and other storys


  • [edit] I messed up


    I joined the cult of Derek/ because Dereks don't run

    Kittie did not take singing lessons? But...but...she has the voice of an angel!

    Not Atwood. Bingo! I could have met her, briefly, after
    a lecture but I was too freaked out about it, very
    "Beatles at the Hollywood Bowl," palms at my temples
    and screaming "I LOVE YOU!!!!!!"

    Various reasons prevent me from answering Kittie's
    latest trio of "facts."

    Brian is right. I'm never met Johnny Hickman.

    Tre, what do you mean by "two sets of lies"? Does that mean only one statement is true? If so, I'm guessing you did speak to the American forum member. If only one is a lie, I'm guessing you also watched "Invasion of the Body Snatchers."

    I have seen the following in concert:

    Art Garfunkel
    Laura Cantrell
    Afroman

    As hard as it might be to believe, I saw Afroman open for TMBG. I think that's a candidate for most misplaced opener ever. Garfunkel did some singer-songwriter weekend show where TMBG also played, which is why I was there. I've never seen Laura Cantrell live, but I wish I could.

    I have visited the following states:

    Vermont
    South Carolina
    New Mexico

    I did play rounders (it's not a girls' sport, its the classic artform from whence was derived baseball and softball). we played it with a cardboard tube and a red nose.
    I did chat about circumcision with a group of women, ending up with them asking me repeatedly whether or not I was cut. Nice!
    I did fail to explain some stuff to some applicants, but it was the Media Centre, not Student Services. Sorry.

    VoV, no-one goes to Vermont, it's only raison d'être is sub-standard maple syrup.

    Today I plan to:
    Wash my sheets
    Fill in a job application form
    Take my watch-strap to be fixed

    (sorry vovat, you are right I only read one story last night but I wrote that thing at around 4am so my head was all over the shop I was going to do another two sets because Kathryn already knew that I'd watched Invasion of the body snatchers because we discussed over the phone how Sutherland snr is hot and sutherland jr is not)

    Vovat, lies about new mexico?
    cheeseman lies about watches?

    I'm tired I'm guessing

    Yep, you rumbled me, by the way. I really should go and get my watch fixed, but I thought maybe I'd leave it til the end of the month and then it'll be a whole year.

    Today I have consumed:
    Tea
    Coffee
    Cup-A-Soup

    You didn't have any tea.

    I've been to both Vermont and New Mexico, but not South Carolina. NORTH Carolina, sure, but not South.

    Albums I've listened to today:

    XTC - Black Sea
    Fastbacks - The Day That Didn't Exist
    Tori Amos - The Beekeeper

    Your not even playing it properly fool, but yes your right about the age thing, the way i see it is quite selfish as long as i am happy with myself and my morality has no qualms with my actions or attitude, i dont give a fuck as long as im happy. Being childish makes me happy, its called being a hedonist.
