Oh, damn, I just lost a really long post.
I miss the internet! I am in Chippenham. It's so nice here! why did I leave to live in a cold, damp and spider (there is also a snail) infested flat?! Besides the cold, damp, spiders and a few other things, the flat is actually good :) although... I'm struggling a little with being the tidier, cleaner flatmate. Obviously Mr Gemmie has uni, so he's busy a lot, but it doesn't do much for ones self worth when you seem to spend quite a large slice of the day cleaning and tidying as well as job hunting. Is quite lonely.
Job hunting is baaaaad. well, I say bad, it could be worse. I've got an unpaid 'internship' at Charlotte Olympia, for 3 days a week, so I said yes to that. I am hoping I can then get a part time job to pay the rent. It means I will have to leave Tatty :( I'm really sad about it! I really like it there. I'm really fond of my supervisor Sam, she's hillarious. But hopefully being around shoes will inspire me to do something and maybe I will help me get a real job. Sadly, the office is in Notting Hill. I was there at the weekend, I think saw Jake Gyllenhaal! Well, I'm 80% sure it was him. Clarissa and I were in a hideously hideously expensive cafe/deli in Notting hill, with Clarissa. It's not really my cup of tea there, many snooty folk, no bins, busy. is pretty though.
Last night I went to see Of Monteal at Koko. It was quite disappointing :( I thought I'd reached a point where I could basically enjoy any live band (within reason) even if I don't like the music, it makes me happy when bands look like they are really enjoying themselves. but I have not reached this point. I like it when people in costumes dance and have slow motion fights on stage, and I like fun keyboard and falsetto singing, sure. lots. but at the same time, I felt like something was missing. The new material was boring and suspiciously road rock. shudder. the worst part was at the end, they played smells like teen spirit... 'confound it!' I exclaimed. it was the most nasal monstrosity to ever befall my ears, ain't that the truth! it made me appreciate the nivarna version. true.
Not having the internet or tv is so odd! I miss the internet real bad. Oh, lovely internet. apple of my eye. fruit of my onions. the power of the sun in the palm of my hand! muahha.
Now that I have visited the job centre at Finsbury park (I spend about 5 hours there last week), I know that Chippenham job centre is like a beautiful haven, with flamingos, cool drinks and tiny colourful rock pools. Oh, the horror. I still haven't sorted the whole thing out. bastards. Next time I'm unemployed I'm going to kill myself instead. possibly at the job centre. that'll teach you, Jason. One day while I was waiting (for an hour and a half, so they could make me an appointment to come back in) a lady called tina sat down near me, and another fellow. she then proceeded to tell her lifes story to the other guy, from her time as a brothel madam in ascot, to the time she stabbed someone 16 times, then her stint in prison, the death of her child and finally her turning to crack and loosing her teeth. the guy kept saying 'you've got to know yourself' over and over. it was quite the eye opener. If I ever start using heroin I will be sure to save some for the morning. her husband doesn't, much to her annoyance. Poor tina. it was super bleak.
I love autumn. It's my favourite time. I've started wearing my orange shoes, it makes me very happy to walk through orange leaves in them :D I felt quite home sick for Leicester today on the train. I want to go back to the canal and river. I used to love walking along for miles and hours, it was like no one else existed except ducks, and it was my own quiet little grey world.
Autumn is the best. It's so nostalgic and the air changes. Mmm. my dad spends all his time in the garden sucking up leaves.
Now I'm going to go drive toyota :D I was very happy when I watched the Julia Pott video for Casio tone for the painfully alone song 'white corolla' It's got it all, toyota reference, animals squonky rollerskating and dancing. yee.
