Sinister: we are the tablecloth and also the table (only youre not, are you?)

[Alix Campbell]

hello

virgin have a sale on. i went into town intending to buy useful things, like
stamps, but i came back with more bloody cds that i dont particulary want.
so now i have a cd by the incredible string band. they were on some
mentalist shit, for sure. like an aesthetic menage a trois involving
gorky's, monty python and the cast of the wicker man. and a stoat. the cover
has children on it dressed like contestants for a 'who can look like a
madnut druid and wear the best poncho' competition at a village fete. but
they werent on such mentalist shit as freedesign blatantly were. beyond
psychedelia, they were. its easy to be drug addled and sing about minotaurs
horns, but to sing about forget-me-nots and sesame street? that shows proper
skeelz. i wonder what theyre doing now. farming little baby puppies, and
selling them to lovely kind caring people, for no money at all, just for the
sheer pleasure of watching baby animals grow furry. or theyre trapped in a
basement somewhere being forced to watch 'police, camera, action' with the
sound off.

i saw something once on 'youve been framed'. it was a cat on a spinny office
chair being spun round and round until its eyes went all spinny too and it
fell off the chair. thats cruel, i thought. but 'youve been framed' is an
essentially cruel program. its because jeremy beadle is so bitter. i know
hes deformed, but theres no need to keep showing people from 1991 falling
into wedding cakes.

i tried to buy some socks today. i swear theres no socks in oxford that are
not brown, navy or black. if i want socks like that i steal them from my
brother. if i have to buy them  i want them to be exciting, orange, maybe or
something equally exotic. like pink. littlewoods (sorry, thats far too
relevent) is depressing, isnt it? i got in there and couldnt find the socks
at all. then when i did i despaired and had to leave in fear of being
overwhelmed by the beigeness of it all.

im moving to london soon. i need a job and a house, if anyone has any spare
ones about their person. means ill be leaving the list and therefore
changing it not one bit seeing as i never post.

if anyone caught a cold recently, that was my fault and im sorry, but im
suffering too...


love lixi
