Dearest Lot, Suffering Autumn misery-guts syndrome, I have been driven to listening to the cardigain's Life album from under a blanket, eating milky way strawberry whips. It is my firm belief that they are putting something in the water, as I havent felt this tired since I last did a charity shop trawl (read: thriftstore) - the old women that hide all the good stuff in the back room, they slip a needle up your arm on the way in and drain all the colour out of your cheeks. Their Rouge just doesn't have the same effect - it's the delicate english rose Vs the leathery slapped bottom look. And let's face it, the leathery slapped bottom look is about as fashionable as a drum solo these days. The Fascist debate. I'm going to put my hands out, wrists up and confess - I *am* a sportswear facsist. I hate people who wear combat trousers and designer trainers, I laugh in the face of a Kappa Jacket - and wholey hope that they will laugh right back at me in my Red Socks and Kitten Heels - infact I quite enjoy that, because it means I've done a Good Job. Musically, I'm not quite so snobbish, although to my discredit, I know I'd have to hide a few horrors under my bed if someone was coming round that I was trying to impress. Isn't that always the way though, making such a gallant effort to present yourself the serious and sophisticated young thing, you realise you left your copy of the BEANO out.
But then I always like songs with cursing in them.
tell you what *is* fabulous - Shirley lee from Spearmint singing "and I'm sorry, to be so blunt, but that man, is a cunt" when you least expect it! So rude. They do put a parential guidance sticker on, at least - which is less than I can say for those filthy Hefner boys. Right, I'm going back to hide under my blanket. Send me your electronic affection!
