Sinister: the big monkey said to the little monkey "oo oo oo"

[Fiona Fairbairn]

i just remembered why i'm on this list...
it's because so many of those who dwell here are so damn lovely.
i send one badly written, whiny post and i'm overwhelmed with 
messages of sympathy and empathy from all over the world. thanks 
everybody. i still haven't told my mum quite how bad my exam results 
were, but i'm feeling more positive about it.

not on a lighter note, but on a similarly dismal one, i am currently 
suffering from a quite unpleasant skin complaint (you know you want 
to hear about this) that has made my face all dry and blotchy and 
itchy. the doctor won't help, so whilst wandering around harvey 
nicks* (dahling) yesterday with my mum, we stumbled across a stall in 
the cosmetics department with a fish tank and big signs telling us of 
how a physicist from NASA invented a magic face cream made from fish. 
intrigued i had a consultation with a scary posh woman who was 
wearing too much orange make-up (you should have seen the horror on 
her face when i told her i sometimes wash with soap) and my mum ended 
up spending over £150 on cosmetic products. i never envisioned myself 
as the sort of person who would use £75 moisturiser, at least not 
until i was rich and famous anyway, but apparently now i am.
  not sure why i just told you that, but it makes me feel glamorous, 
even though i don't look it just now.


 ~~content alert~~
are there any plans afoot to meet up before the gig in manchester? if 
there are someone email me, and if not i don't mind being in charge 
of generating some. so, assuming nothing is already happening you may 
send me ideas or expressions of interest for a manchester pre-gig 
meetup. i also have secret plans for afterwards which i may be 
persuaded to share if bribed handsomely.


thanks again for being who you are,

love and lollipops,

fiona.


*for the uninitiated (non uk) a really expensive department store
