mmm...music

I started drifting to a different place

I realized I was falling off the face of your world

And there was nothing left to bring me back

I'm a million miles away
A million miles away
A million miles away
And there's nothing left to bring me back today

holidays/malaise

cruel summer

my have a blast yearbook summer fantasies are officially over.

this summer has gone by so ridiculously fast in spurts and dripped along like molasses in others. its been mental! the first part of the summer was lush - seemed very promising, but it's been a bit of a drag really. i've had so much on my plate & the weather has been so gloomy :(


the summer concert series in the garden has kept me busy for 14 hours every Thursday and Saturday's have been disastrously busy in the garden - and now a new art installation and huge database conversion. eeeek! i miss part-time work! why is it that the grass is ALWAYS greener. ALWAYS! at least i got to go to the always amazing san francisco silent film festival and i've been getting in shape and deathly hallows part II was immense!

things helping me get through:


best.ever.yum.

electro-brilliance.


comfort food telly.

well, i finally did it!

i knew getting my wisdom teeth out would be mental.
why did i wait so long! i'm in agony. can't even drink hot tea :(


at least i took the whole week off from work (catching up on eastenders and sleep).

ps. pintos & cheese is the perfect post-oral surgery food. yum!

stay golden, ponyboy.

Isn't it weird when you have to do a double take when you see yourself in the mirror? Or you just have to stare at yourself because everything looks all out of sorts. Iona is right...why can't we start old and get younger?? Iona is genius ♥
