Ian said: "But it was very difficult this morning not to sound like an excited little girl when my work people asked me how my weekend had been, cause it was lots of fun. They probably all think I'm a little bit sad now." I know how that feels. I came back to uni, and I spotted my pals. They looked at me. How was the gig? they asked. That was Monday afternoon. I *think* I stopped bleeting how brilliant the gig was some time yesterday evening (tuesday). I'm not entirely sure. I think I ought to do a sponsored "don't say the beeness name!" thing for a week. That'll shut me up. I'll have to think of something else to say. But no, I won't. I gotta milk this story for a few more months yet, cos its a rare thing, these gigs. You have to savour them.. the fragrance before, the initial taste, then the warm feeling in your belly afterwards, where you lick your lips and sigh with contentment. I saw this great poem today. I was waiting for the bus (had been to buy Boots entire store of hayfever relief thingys) and there was this dude there, with this great big bit of card, with this poem written on it. It was the best poem I've read in years. Get this line, you lot: "Terry says hes stopped playing the cryptic crosswords, I know how he feels". Sorry, but I was impressed. So I spoke to the poem man there and then, and just told him how awestruck I was by his poem. Its a poem about falling out of love, you see, and it has this reference at the bottom, where New Scientist reckoned that love was a mental illnes, and lasts 18 months tops. And this guy was making some sort of comment about falling out of love. It was called "Exit Notes (moment of departure)". It was trully fantastic. i've never been so dumbfounded and astonished by poetry like that for such a long time. I can't remember his name though. Hmm. JP sesh was ace last night. Anyone off here enter the beeness competition for tix to London? Bet you ALL did, even if you've already seen them on this tour! Still, like I said, savour it. Whens the next Beeness single out? Anyone know? Has it got a title? What songs are on it? I'm a little excitable today. Oh, and my flatmate got her results. She got a 2:1, the jammy babe. Their due out Friday, apparently. I started shakign with fear for no apparent reason last night when I heard its Friday. Or before Friday, depending on when they manage to get them out. I've put my pals on emergency Haagen Daz standby (chocolate chip) incase it all goes dreadfully wrong. That way, when I jump off the top of the uni building, it won't take so long to fall, cos my extra weight and the effects of gravity will assist. Keep your knickers crossed and wish happy thoughts for me. Alternatively, if anyone fancies calling UEA (Norwich) and bribing them...
