Migraines are really shit. I wish they were yourgraines or someoneelsesgraines. I realise this joke only works if you pronounce it my-graines as opposed to the way lots of people say me-graines. Well if you say me-graines then here is a sentence for you: Migraines are really shit. I wish they were yougrains or someoneelsesgraines. […]

I watched Glee last night and I liked it. I’m honestly not sure what’s wrong me at the moment. Admittedly I think its ok to like Glee considering everyone seems to like Glee, and most importantly I saw on Twitter Simon Pegg likes Glee, so I think I’m allowed to like it to. To be […]

All the snow outside our flat has gone. I feel a little bit like the boy in The Snowman when the snowman melts, only less able to sing and also a lot less emotional. In fact, once again I’ve just given a simile which isn’t true. I don’t feel at all like the kid in […]

The Little Dog Barfed

Before I start this blog, I’d like to point out I am by no means experienced in the world of theatre criticism. I know this shocks many of you who automatically assumed a cat like me would be damn well experienced in everything from the ways of lady killing to plate spinning, but promptly supporting […]

Go shawty, its my birthday, go party like its my birthday etc etc. I am now officially older, and I would like to say that it is properly different being 29 to being 28. Really different. For a start I’ve grown 3ft taller and now am able to speak in fluent Italian and Spanish, as […]

Finally I can stop plugging THIS because its tonight and there’s little I can do to pull extra crowds in now. Instead today needs to be spent remembering the damn thing. I went through it yesterday and its nearly all there. However certain little gags and bits of wording appear to be lost forever. I’m […]

The Big Freeze

I like that this spell of cold weather is being called ‘The Big Freeze’. It sounds a bit like a book by Raymond Chandler. Perhaps one where Phillip Marlowe has to solve a problem of a diamond call the ‘Snowflake’, while someone’s bank account has been frozen and its winter. There is a reason why […]

I have, on several previous occasions on this here very blog, complained about the snow. This is usually because I have had to travel in it, or its not proper snow, just sludgy wet horror or because kids on my street are throwing snowballs with knives and bombs in them. Well today I don’t have […]

I’ve started doing loads of drawing again, which I really enjoy. Ever since I was very tiny I’ve enjoyed doing art type things. You may say a starting point was when my mum walked into the living room one day to find I’d stuck all her sanitary towels to the wall. When she gasped in […]

Jogging the Memory

I was so planning to go jogging this morning. It was going to be step 1 in my ‘get healthy’ plan. Its not really a plan, more something I put in this blog and have said a few times to a few people until I myself would believe I. But that’s enough that meant I […]
