Smart girls and pretty boys,

well hello there. I'm sorry about my last post, but I really have a thing
for dramatic entrances. It's terrible really, we're supposed to be humble
and twee and witty and clever, not resort to stunts. Stuart Murdoch et all,
they're not really Flamboyant, are they? They write nice pop tunes and
everything, but wouldn't it be great if they all wore matching outfits one
time, like Steps. They could incorperate some shuffle-y style dance moves in
too - it would be great! Isobel could colour co-ordinate her headscarf with
her knee length skirt.

I'm against the box set. Like Damon says - say no kids! I got send an empty
box from the Pet Shop Boys last week - if I buy all three of the versions of
their new single, I can fill the box. What a clever marketing ploy. Maybe I
should fill the box up with something else and send it back. Snotty tissues,
perhaps..

Here's the paragraph where I bring you some very late gossip from
Tigermilking. May I give props to the boy Sam for dancing on the stage to
Britney Spears with me, and encourage anyone to cast dissaproving eyes onto
one Stevie Trousers, who managed about FIVE SECONDS before jumping back onto
the floor. I forced Alistair to sit on my knee at one point, and was
suprisingly light as a feather. Poor boy, thats what you get when you offer
a modern girl a seat.

Heres the paragraph where I say what I'm up to at the moment. A boy said
something along the lines of "va va voom! mwah!" in my direction today, in a
sarcastic manner. I turned round to look, slightly miffed at this public
display of mockery, when he said "suck my cock". Ah, lovely. I'd like to
thrill you with a new campaign against the townies of Hertford, but aside
from a pair of Space Age barbarella style white boots, I'm really not
putting up so much of a fight these days. I'm a bit bored of being me too,
so I tend to spend entire days inside my head picturing the set of the stage
I'm going to impress people on once I run away to New York and dance on the
streets wearing gold shoes. Oh no, that's Fame, isn't it?

I took that picture, but it hasn't been messed about with one bit. This is
because Hannah does actually look like a doll. And thats because she is
actually a doll. Yes, it's true, I don't have a best friend, meerly a
porcelin companion. I think she's got the same quality people used to credit
Nick Drake with - it's as if her skin is see-through, it's so clear and
white. There are more of my picture-efforts in The Magic Launderette - a
continuing series, which can be found in the House of Scarlet which is
linked at the bottom of the page.

Kate Moss is the sort of girl that just shouldn't exist. It's not fair for
one person to be quite that beautiful. Mind you, I object to boys who
discriminate against girls of an ample bust. I mean it's just not fair,
we've had to spend our early teens wearing Industrial Bras which bring the
word 'scaffolding' to mind, suffer contant boob jokes from fifteen year old
boys, blush in the 'minimiser' section of Marks and Spencers, who, by the
way, are useless when it comes to that sort of thing - they believe that for
a brassires to be both big and glamourous, they have to made entirely out of
lace and satin in suggestive colours (anything other than white, basically)
and have little bows on the straps. What next? bells?

Perhaps we should be greatful that women arent still wearing those pointy
crossover contraptions as was the style of the 50s/60s. They'd have someones
eye out!

anyway, nothing of any value has no ending so they say.

Nice to be back,
Erica
