Poppets,

It was another Life Drawing Class this evening. It wasn't naked Stan,
unfortunatley, who I think we've all grown quite fond of during the last
two sessions. No, it was Thin Ray. I'm afraid Thin Ray isn't quite as
controlled as naked Stan, as little Ray did indeed stand to attention. I
blushed. It wasn't so much the erection that got me, rather the way Ray
deperately cried "Down boy! down boy! go on, thats a good boy". I'll shall
never forget the horror in his eyes. No one giggled. Dead Silence. I think
I saw him shed a tear at one point.

I may be joining the ranks of the working rather soon. My friend Katy has
just got a job on the cake counter at Waitrose, and apparently at the end
of the day, she gets to eat all the cakes which are left over. Which is
good news, because Katy is one of those thin girls that moans about being
fat, gallantly trying to stick out a belly that just isn't there, in the
vain hope you'll sympathise. I want a job in the staff canteen, because
apparently the boys from the Warehouse whistle at you and wink at you when
you give them extra chips.

Had a weird moment of clarity on friday evening. Mr Stevie Trousse said he
remembered me being like a startled rabbit at the first sinister thing I
ever went to. (It was a cold January evening, and myself and miss H got
ourselves all dressed down and timidly shuffled into poetry cafe) I said
something like "yes, little did you know I'd turn into the beast I've now
become" but I think he'd stopped listening by that point. My point is, my
WORD that startled little rabbit was much nicer than the boisterous
chain-smoking drunk that has been put in her place recently. I'm going to
go back to sitting in my room with Hannah (post darling, god damn it!)
drawing hearts around pictures of Richey Edwards. Thats all I did before I
met you lot, anyway.

Does anyone know the guitar chords to 'You're in a bad way' by St Etienne?
Just dial my number, or call my name...
