I'm so sleepy.. Its been a while I think, since a post to sinister came from me. This evening I met with a friend in The Wash. Hes had his hair cut, and its looking pretty good for hat hair. He gave me a christmas present, and I know it will be good - his taste and ability to judge my taste is impecable. Should think so too, after 7 years. The weekend, seems to have disappeared and left behind the glorious remenants of memories, floating round my mind like little floating candles. There is a memory, which was sparked off yesterday, when I heard Velvet Underground playing on the jukebox in the 13th Note. It reminded me of university. Of my first year in halls of residence, and how all the corridors, linking the ziggurat floors together and coasting down like the steps inside a ship, smelt of chicken soup, as all the smells of food combined. It reminded me of the hungover morning after my 19th birthday, when I had drunk champagne for the first time, from a pint glass on an empty stomach, and yes, downed it in one. The memory of crawling around on my hands and knees, opening the door so that visitors wouldn't stand banging on the glass to be let in. And when I looked up, there he was. A man with a black mullet, and eyeliner, in an orange shirt who looked like a beer bellied Richey Manic, and I fancied him. So I offered him some champagne. He smiled at me. Later, my flat mate said he told her he'd never been offered champagne from the bottle by a drunken pretty girl on her hands and knees before. The hangover morning, was sort of beautiful, and quite surreal. Looking out my steamed up window, onto the misty lake, and shivering under my duvet, and lying in bed for hours, gazing at the black and white Brett Anderson poster hung above my bed. The boys used to like that poster. They liked the idea of Brett Anderson watching us while we got it on. They said it was as if he approved. The Winchester Club was marvellous. I haven't listened to my free cee dee yet. I shall though. Soon. I am sleepy. My friend couldn't believe how quiet I was. idles x ===== <a href="http://retrosec.blogspot.com/">http://retrosec.blogspot.com/</a> thoughts __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
