hi there, PAGAN BIT happy hallowe'en. Today I learnt why Christian holidays coincide with Pagan ones. It was very interesting. Decided against carving pumpkins this year. Last year boyfriend and I carved one each, his with the mogwai Young Team logo on it, mine, with a cat sitting on the moon. Very apt. Then some kids came pestering at the door. This year, I don't think pumpkins would be safe. Not in my area. AUCTIONS I noticed that the auction has started. So far, there's a �65 bid for Stuart Murdoch to help folk write music and things. Blimey. I don't think I would personally bid for that. Cos I can make much better music without Stuart Murdoch's help, thankyou very much. I just need to find a way of communicating it to my talentless guitar. Then, you can all join my fan club. Might bid though for Gregory Pothier and his art painting thing. As far as I know, hes a very talented chap. My opinion? well, hes a hot tip. Not a bad painter either. ;-) Then I could give it to my gran. (She loves everything I do. The sun? its dull in comparrison to my bottom.) She really needs to replace that picture I drew when I was eleven of her dog being zapped into outerspace. I don't know what I would have offered. I thought about it, briefly, but the only talent I have is my boyfriend, and I'm not about to pimp him. I thought about pimping.. sorry, AUCTIONING.. my dream interpreting "skills". But I do that for just about anyone who asks what it means to find themselves riding up a mountainside on a white horse chasing a cat away, to the sound of untuned music, and in the middle of rain. I also considered being a shopping partner, carrying peoples bags and things. But that would involve patience. I don't have a talent. I have many. I'm waiting for my student loan to come through. Considering blowing it on hiring the services of another B+S fan for a day/whatever. But I don't think my parents would be too chuffed. I owe them my rent for my accomodation.. hmm.. parents.. auction, parents...auction... where to put the money.... Maybe I'll just go shopping instead and think about it in H+M. Student loan is totally pants this year. Wheres my money??! They're giving me a smaller slice of what I deserve. I don't understand how I am supposed to survive. Also, I definately would have bid for anyone offering to pamper me from a scalp massage to painting my toe nails for an evening. Scalp massages aren't as good when you have to do it yourself. I get sore arms. SHEEP fluffy white things that go Baa. Just a little fact for you, from the University of Easy Access (UEA for short) Back in Viking times, towards the end of Paganism, when runes were still in use, the Icelandic folk used to write on sheepskin. Could ythis be the origins of designer labelling? Sheep have a lot to answer for. Anyway, I shall leave it at that for now.
