while the cats away....

the mice should play...
knowing that my wife is going to be out on Saturday night should fill me
with thoughts of how to decadently waste my solo life away.
A long heady night spent in the company of pert young things full of the
verve and spirit that once spilled out of my pores.
A night full of drink, dance and glimpses of eye contact with night dwellers glistening with
beads of narcotic tinged perspiration.
A evening that staggers into the dawn, buzzing like blown tweeter.
The kind of adventure that starts and ends in a chip shop.
Gurning,grinning,giggling and inevitably gagging.
you know the drill......
but the reality is that i will probably end up watching more football than is
healthy and playing PlayStation til i get carpal tunnel syndrome..
oh well welcome to your thirties!

which Wainwright is right????

In a word...(words)
All three.
As I trudged home last night up the steady incline of Highgate Hill the rain
dampening what i now know to be my not so waterproof charity shop parka and
with the warm fuzz of a few light and lagers helping the wet journey back to my warm flat
pass easier I pulled out my glowing iPhone and scrolled through to pick my suitable homeward
bound accompaniment,
Martha or Rufus?
After a short inward mental choice I chose Martha,and in the evening glare of dripping street lamps it was the right choice,but it could have easily been her sibling that night.
I know that sometimes Rufus can whine abit,and that Martha can get,well you know
abit...well whiny.
But as musical families go you cant beat abit of Wainwright.
Enigmatic, horsey faced ,camp and of course whiny.
God bless Mr and Mrs Wainwright.

im a vegetarian...but i eat fish

is this the most gutless,hypocritical statement a human can make????
i think so...
so much that it has consumed my being......
so you don't want to eat meat for whatever half arsed reason,but you will
quite happily eat an animal that gets dragged out of the water by its face and then
has its life ended by either suffocation or a blow to the nogging.
give yourself a round of applause,you don't have to eat red meat or the battery chicken
but taking the moral high ground is a joke.
since when has the life of a halibut been less valuable than the quail?
and why the over exuberant exclamation of the fact?
"I'm a vegetarian"
"but i eat fish"
..
..
"and duck"
"and sometimes chicken"
"oh and i had a sausage roll a week ago"
Either commit or fuck off!!
"I'm a non smoker"
"except for cigars"
"and crack"
right that's that of my chest
lets all go to Gauchos and celebrate....
the meat is on me!!!!
