miss tara sez:
Isobel's songs are..cute I guess, but her work just seems slightly immature.
<hides from lesley jo behind the couch>  there is nothing inherently *wrong*

*RROWR!!!*  no i'm i'm just scarin ya.  i'm not gonna lash out at anyone,
haha.  I can't have a disagreement with that per se, of course her songs are
nto the same style as stuart's, and i've never come out saying she's the
new.....er, stuart, or whoever, and i'm sure that her songmaking skills will
have a chance to evolve.  But i'm just a pushover for pretty music, is that
so wrong?  her songs are pretty, clever, honest and straightforward, and it
makes me happy to hear her voice.  it's nothing more complicated than that.
and if she does put out her own records (HOORAY PRAISE JESUS LET IT BE!) i
will definitely dish out the money for them and enjoy them over and over
again.  hehe, i mean it doesn't all have to be, emm....you know, like the
next lou reed or whatever you call it, it's pretty music and i think it's
damn good and i will not be ashamed to say so.   but as i've inferred
before, I used to be a pretty big madonna fan, i never said i had no book
lernin', so let me be!!! d'oh!!   Um, Isobel rules and i want to propose to
her and she can sing any song she wants in my company, i dont care if it's
row row row your boat.   Hmmm???
Oh, and anyone who thinks isobel isn't  twee, needs glasses or something.

I thought of a cartoon, Dottycakes and Pishnibbles, starring in "Twee as
Fuck"   they travel to the greater NYC Oi! convention and set up a pastel
cabana selling their zine, Pretty Pretty Flowers Ebberywhere, and their new
single,  "I Love the Way those Little Baubles Jangle On Your Plastic
Fingers(the Rice Pudding Song)".   Dotty is the girly, Pish is the teeny
boy.  Twee as Fuck is such a daunting way of life to the punkers in their
suspenders and tongue rings, who formerly thought they were a bunch of
hard-asses but find themselves with battered and bruised egos from the
pretty taunts those Twee bastards hurl at them.  those little heart candies
can hurt like a mother!!!

i trust you will all be excited to see Jess's newest creation which will
eventually be featured on the Wee world of isobel. it is indeed an Isobel
doll, my Very Own isobel doll to be exact.  she does bear a somewhat uncanny
resemblance to what you might assume the Really Wee Isobel may have looked
like back in the days of lollipops and school uniforms (de jure, that is).
and WHOA that fashion sense!! coulda fooled me, definitely.  i'm very
jealous of this doll's outfit, I want one myself.   JUst you wait......  aww
how adowabow!!

today i was incredibly bored and tired.  in the library i found some ripped
up shreds of a legal pad, in little ragged squares, and to pass the time i
drew little isobels all over them, some in Is it Wicked scenes, others in
tiger cap, and i wrote tiggerjammies all over them, and Sexy Milk Fiend, and
i'm planning to  scatter these all over the world when i travel. i left
three of them in strategically placed spots on campus today.  particularly
on a desk where soemone had drawn 3 quite beautiful portraits of pretty
girls, one of them looked a lot like bjork, and one looked like an elf
queen, and the other one looked a bit like tori amos, but they were really
quite elaborately and beautifully done, on a desktop at that.  i left my
very first Isobel tiggerjammies note on the desk. it says "isobel loves
you!!"   i've also decided that the special winter dc/belleandsebastian
issue of my zine will be subtitled Tiggerjammies.   i would almost want to
rename it but i've already made up a nice parthenogenesis (PG) logo, and
tiggerjammies is well, realy twee.  D'OH!!!    suffice to say i should be
saying tiggerjammies several times a day from now on, or at least thinking
about it.   when i'm not thinking about the Knees of Sex, that is.  (thanks
to weejay for the sexy gams picture!)
oh when will i ever grow up?

worrying about expectations rt about now.......
