Current mood: SHOW ME THE MONEY!!!!
Category: SHOW ME THE MONEY!!!! Music

I sometimes think of my proper job title as being 'Professional Gambler'...

And the only reason I feel able to claim something so silly, is because I generally loose more than I win...

At least so far...


Yes boss, I'm currently re-reading what must be my favourite book for the umpteenth time...

Sexus by Henry Miller...

It's been 4 years since I've read it, and it's lost nothing - in fact it's taken on a whole new light and I'm finding exceptional new bits...


'I was approaching my thirty-third year, the age of Christ crucified. A wholly new life lay before me, had I the courage to risk all. Actually there was nothing to risk: I was at the bottom rung of the ladder, a failure in every sense of the word.'


Well, I'm half way through my 33rd year and I'm not quite so downbeat on my success as Hank, but occasionally you put a mirror up (apart from when leaving the house in a bad tracksuit) and see how things look and I guess I'm doing that just now...


Yes boss, Mrs Giovanni is away on business in the South of France, so I have time and space to really indulge myself without having to hide the bottles and DO THE WASHING UP!!!


Within 48 hours of her last expedition, I'd lost my bankcard, £15 in cash, my favourite handmade scarf, become embroiled in an argument with a bouncer, spent some time screaming at the canal, made CHG1 and captured The Chairs Of Pop Power...


I saw none of that coming - who knows what these next few days hold???


I know I have endless wine, 3 days observation at Gizzard Studios, a night at the proms, and (if I'm not hiding) the Eugene Machine at the Luminaire.....

I'd imagine I'll also probably pose around the flat in my Keagan shorts, scream at the canal some more, shit on the walls, play the music VERY LOUD, watch a few films, pretend to cook, keep on reading Hank + a bit of PJ O'Rourke, make a lot of mess and try and get to the bottom of just exactly what is going on....?!?


So, the usual...
