"monday monday...

...can't trust thaaat daayy"
Feeling groggy and sick and woozy all day....had crazy dreams about having 4 identical legs and feet and having to tie beautiful bows in the ribbons of sweet new heels I had on, but it being really hard to reach the dernier pair of feet that had appeared...I was off to dinner in a Cambridge Uni college and was really nervous as I wanted to make connections. The fact that I was scuttling along on four legs, like a human spider was not even encroaching on my thoughts.

Been suffering from terrible back pain this weekend. Going to have to begin an actual regime of boiling baths and give a big up-yours to climate change on the basis that I'm already guilty about everything, plus I've been a vegetarian for the majority of my life now, which had saved a lot of carbon footprints, so I must stop cursing myself.
Good that Slumdog Millionaire won Oscars, shame Waltz With Bashir didn't, it really deserved one, by far the most powerful film that was nominated.


Had a ridiculously exciting weekend, had one of the best meals I've ever had, at Hansa's in Leeds, full of crazy Indian treats that you've never conceived of, followed by a mad dash over to the West Yorkshire Playhouse for Lenny Henry in Othello. I've read a couple of incredibly condescending reviews of it, which is so predictable for a play starring a non-actor, ex-comedian, which is on....OUTSIDE London!! Anyway, it was brilliant, simply and passionately executed. I really enjoyed it, and Lenny Henry was an amazing presence, a huge man, the weight of his movement and depth of his sadness was beautiful.
so there. F off London reviewers.


I also saw The Hounding of David Oluwale last week, which you must see if it comes near you, but be prepared for extreme frustration and crying!But see it, it's a very important story.
Me and Liv chopped veg and printed, and got Lally in on the printing factory!tee hee! We'd better credit her in our work methinks...
Overall, an action packed 4 days in Wakey. Got a busy week coming up, but got art to do mainly, so at least it's creative business and not just shit business. Although obviously 830-5 pm each day will be shit business....


ANAAAAAAYYYWWAAAAY. on the flipside. peace.
