Sinister: the mittens on strings school of twee
I tell you I'm so weak-willed. I've broken evey single one of my new years resolutions in (counts on her fingers... runs out of fingers...) er, this many days. On jan the 1st i was all ready to use a spoon for the jam jar, not to draw dirty pictures on steamed up windows and not to bother those nice people on sinister. sigh. Actually i'm lying. I never eat jam. Anyway, hello all, I hope you're all keeping nicely. After honeys mothering talk I thought I'd unlurk for once. Talking about mummys, mine was singing LLPJ the other morning in the shower. The words were a bit wrong - I waited desperately for her to sing about thrush and shock my dad and it didn't happen- but, bless her, the tune was there. (sorry, that's about all the content) About the subject line, I think I read that in select a while ago. It's not the type of thing that my head comes out with . I was never in of control my mittens on strings. They gave me co-ordination problems and one invariably ended up somewhere around my armpit and the other in a puddle. The other day jenowl said....
When I was very small I used to stay awake till late in the dark in bed, and then I wuld gather all my dolls round me and we would have a picnic from food I'd saved, and I would pretend we were hiding out in the blackest cave from baddies, and we were eating our supplies at midnight, and bringing magic and laughter to the darkness and coldness, and playing games and telling little stories to keep our spirits up. I couldn't sleep last night, and I had the idea that I would do that again. So I did.
Funny that, I did a similar thing the other night but instead of toys I was in bed with a Younger Man. Ok, it was Harry Potter, but I read under the quilt with a torch into the wee hours and way past my bedtime. So actually it was nothing like Jenowls picnic which sounds exciting, but I was trying to be relevant. Ok I'll stop now. Goodnight all, sleeptight,and don't let the bed bugs bite. ikki Vikki. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
