YES the spider is still trapped under a bucket and i have no intention of moving anywhere near it until i'm sure it has suffered death by starvation which i realise is cruel but, really, i have no other irrational phobias, i think i'm okay with claiming insanity on this one. (oh i'm afraid of many things, but most of them are rational fears -...

Dear world,

I made a guy follow along as I went shopping for books, painting canvas and coffee.

I have a big mug of fresh-brewed vanilla/hazelnut-coffee with a big slump of cream in it.

I don't really like cream in my coffee but I have managed to eat ZIT today and I need fat. MM FAT.

And mmmmm coffee.

Vanilla smells so much better now...

I am still ill but nowhere near acute enough to call a doctor. No coughing or sneezing, just swollen lumps around my throat and in my armpits and a high fever (comparatively; i am generally below average temperature). And my stomach is doing... something. If this...

Dear world,

I live on smoothies made out of ginger, bananas and raspberries. I heart ginger.

AND. I just realised what the big deal is regarding swine flu. It originated in Mexico! As in, hecho en Mxico. Which is only an explanation if you've read sufficient amounts of Achewood.

Today I'm baking a cake and trading it for a 32" telly.

Dear world,

just so we're clear; I am here because of wonderful human beings dressing up as Daria and Jane, and also to stalk Coffeelove. (I love coffee, too. And coffeelove. Coffee loves me. Love coffees me? This is hella confusing.)

I had intended to be asleep by now but I seem to be stuck in an emo loop.

...Therefore, more coffee.

(You know...

Dear world,

I'm eating chocolate and picking flakes of dead skin out of my scorched-sunburnt cleavage whilst reading "A confederacy of dunces" and making mental lists of ways in which I may or may not be similar to its main character.

Clearly the world needs to know this.
