dust me off

January 29, 2010

A little advanced warning.
Over the next while i'll be trying to sort out my blog. I'm a little tired of the entire thing, so it'll be getting an overhaul to placate my pissyness.
Therefore, expect a mess.
I know, mostly, how i want it to look but i have this feeling it's only achievable in my head - like most things i want to do.
So this may take a while to figure out and actually format. My procrastination has reached new heights of ludicrous.
For now, i leave you with a duvet cover i can't afford to ship over from the US, (90 pounds worth of material and shipping is a bit too rich for my sleepy blood):

and a piece of music composed by John Murphy for Danny Boyle's stellar film, Sunshine, that i just can't stop listening to:

the city of prague philharmonic orchestra - adagio in D minor


I'm a sucker for a good movie score and has Danny Boyle ever made a bad movie?
Probably, but i'll ignore its existence.

Shakespeare and Company, is an independent bookstore located in the 5th arrondissement of Paris's Left Bank. Shakespeare and Company serves as a bookstore and also a lending library, specializing in English-language literature. The upstairs also serves as a makeshift dormitory for travellers, known as "tumbleweeds," who earn their keep by working in the shop for a couple of hours each day.

Heaven.

Yet another scrappy drawing but i like this one's scrappiness. Plus, immense expression. That's true sleep, far far away from this plane of existence sleep. Don't you wish you could sleep like that all the time? I certainly do. It only ever occurs when i'm so knackered i can't see straight and being the nocturnal wretch that i am, it very rarely happens.
This day has been full of lots of interesting anecdotes. The mark of a good day:
Smelling milk to check its wellness and memories of my childhood holiday house in Carradale causing a smile. Quite possibly my favourite place outside my home, i can't wait to return someday. Milk has a good smell.
My sister reminding me of Sandworms and my inexplicable disgust at them rising from the depths of my feeble memory banks. Bleurgh. I remember hopping around them cause they horrified me so much. Yuck. Gives me shivers.
My love of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
My love of Azure Ray
and my highlight of the day...
Russell Howard at The Secret Policeman's Ball. I think he should take Bill Bailey's captaincy on Never Mind The Buzzcocks. He'd be magic. I don't usually buy comedian's shows on dvd but for him, i shall make an exception, for i love him.

Here's a link to his performance: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=W9EvdbOjpQE
