Sinister: poo to copolymers, yay to right-hand drive vehicles

[Blissxo at xxx.com]

hi sinisterines,

you've no doubt missed me over these last few weeks. i can tell, because not 
only were you deprived of my lovely list posts but there are oh-so-few of you 
that have kept up at the tweesocks headquarters (bastards!). 

so what has jessica been up to, you ask? well, i've been in glorious england, 
glorious portsmouth to be precise, don't bother heading out to the nearest 
hmv or virgin for the gentle waves or looper because they don't have them. 
and i had my heart set, too... but that disappointment was skilfully 
counteracted by a certain sweet grr, who sensed my emptiness and filled it 
with dinner and a pint. bless him. i was also a bit saddened that i didn't 
have the privilege of meeting up with any of you lovely kids, even those of 
you that tried. such is the bane of the existence of a girl prone to extended 
lie-ins and overindulgence of shreddies. i'll have to buy myself tetley tea 
in the round bags and have it with milk every morning. it's become such a 
habit. and for those of you who don't know, american and british shreddies 
are different. the uk ones are much better.

and i am horribly jetlagged, i've been up since 3 this morning because i 
somehow believe that it's 9am, even though it very clearly isn't. i would 
swear to you that it's after 5pm right now, but everything around me points 
to 11am. how sad. 

but what's not sad is the fun that i had: didn't get to see any bands, but 
did see a positively phenomenal show called "incognito" put on by the 
jumpstart dance company (also had the pleasure of learning about the ins and 
outs of british lighting and electricity, as well as how to steer a large 
piece of scaffolding when there's a man on the top) - if any of you get the 
chance to see it, please do. you'll have an epiphany. the next two shows are 
on 28 april at the west end centre, aldershot, and then on 29 april at 
coventry university of performing arts.  and there's no need to underestimate 
walks by the sea or evenings spent in a flat, shooting all the bad guys on a 
playstation. 

also of note were b+s-related sightings in british magazines: gentle waves in 
the face, and looper in dazed and confused. but i think someone may have 
mentioned them already.

i've also developed a secret delgadoes crush. shhh, everyone, i like to 
remain low profile.

i suppose that's it, then - entertaining oneself in the wee hours of the day 
seems to affect the brain in a strange way. i'm not usually using this crap 
aol email, but it's where i am right now. variety is the spice of life, as 
they say.

love,
jessicaxo
