Londonium is the element of surprise.

I won't lie to you, baby. I've been hiding out. It was one of those dusky times when my psyche and I were fighting because I want to strut and sing and it just wants to lie around sulking and only getting up to check its eyeliner in the reflection of the black, black pool spilling from its sheer angst. It's utterly utterly annoying of it and it ( Read more... )

I'm avoiding the not-so-sudden iPod revolution simply because there was nothing wrong with the Walkman other than wimpy midgets complaining about the girth, weight and constant skipping of CD's. Would add a few notes about the ridiculousness of socio-political rumors started at lunch counters, but us new age hippies don't speak out against The Man, we ignore Him.

factious fiona. Please don't IM unless you're prepared to use smiley faces. Bitches love smiley faces.

I happened to love the Walkman, and the burnable CD solved all of those skip track issues I used to have unless I put in a ridiculous dance music compilation when you know everything's going to be silly anyway. There are times for that. I'll take your pass on the lunch counter goss, but only because your skin is glowing and that has to mean you're doing something right.

AHAHAHA they DO? :D

I'm sure it was good amazing. Take it from a bellydancer. Rachel Raqs

I couldn't spin on my head, though. I think I'm out of the running for the Breakdance Olympics. Scotland let down once again.

usually at the most inopportune moments like the morning after a wonderful night when you really should be making nicey with the nice smelling chap on your spare pillow.

Oh, I loved that. Mental note: procure a nice-smelling chap posthaste.

I'm sorry to hear of your aural impairment, sweetie-darling. Ear buds are not for all. I've always prefered the earmuff-style headphones, anyway. Better sound quality, and they double as a useful hair acoutrement on those blustery New York days. You should invest.

I will comment separately with my SN, because I'm still being cagey about who has it, but not prepared to go as far as privacy mode yet. I am interested in seeing who tracks me down.

Do you have a spare pillow? I know a chap that smells nice.

Earmuff style is so much better. I got a pair that shuts out ambient sound as well, so they're great for sleeping on aeroplanes. I always feel I'm missing roller skates when I wear them on the street though.

Thank you for the stealthy SN. We should do some meeting type stuff before I'm off to Londres.

I appreciate a man who looks after my needs.

I get a little bit claustrophobic sometimes when all sound is shut out. I like the little foam earplugs, because they muffle everything down to a comfortable level.

I always feel I'm missing roller skates when I wear them on the street though.

Don't forget the knee-high tube socks and satin short-shorts, darling.

Actually, I'm on the other side of the pond right now, so that might be ideal. I play a gig in Dublin this weekend and then I'm free as a bird. When are you arriving chez Londres?
