THIS IS SO GOOD http://www.hipsterrunoff.com/2009/07/what-does-it-mean-when-a-kute-indie-girl-has-bruises.html
I feel almost sick with worry. I am going to do loads of laundry today and pack tomorrow and leave wednesday. I am going to have so little money in New York and Chicago it’s actually scary. I don’t want to leave here and it’s starting to hit me in a really awful way. I keep telling myself I need a change and this is it and it’s fine but my entire being is like AGGHH NO....

“Here’s your plant.” Said by the stranger in my new building who, upon seeing the mass of things i had to carry up the stairs, picked up my ivy plant and brought it up to my flat.
For the first time in ages…my father came through for me. This is good news. I’ll buy my flight to NYC today. Move flats tomorrow. Spend a week or so in that flat and then I’m off to stay in Vandon House for a few days. Back to the flat and then spending my last few weeks in London. On to NYC to stay in Brooklyn with Brandon and Emily. A week or so or however long they’ll...
I’m thinking London - New York (Brooklyn) - Chicago - Minneapolis? Then I’m confused and don’t have plans. I miss my friends so much more than my family.

so weird.
the windows are open and sounds of london are joining me, my aloo gobi saag/pilau rice and white wine for an afternoon delight.
tonight greg and i are hanging out at scala: he and i have the same birthday. also the eurostar tickets came today. paris is happening…paris is happening in a Citroën deux chevaux vapeur! three more days til patrick is in london.
Weekend was fulfilling. Parks, walks, markets, friends and a few parties along the way. I came out of it all feeling refreshed and slightly sore and having a very fully refrigerator. Twelve days until Patrick and I still squeal every time I think about it. Possibly seeing Frankmusik tonight.
seriously tickets lately include romeo and juliet at the greenwich theatre convict’s opera at the rose kingston frankmusik at the barfly (and tix to the afterparty) girltalk at scala patrick’s surprise (to be disclosed on the day, but the tix are in hand finally) i’m pretty excited. possibly also seeing the twelfth night done in kabuki. seriously try to keep a straight face.

a bottle of wine later, we headed to old st for david bowie night
i don’t understand how i can go to bed at 5 am and still am able to wake up like six times before i officially look at the clock and decide that’s the latest i can possibly wake up (9.12am). it looks like it will be sunny today and my gmail account background agrees. the people at 9 brechin seem to be renovating the front on the ground floor. i can hear this bright and early on the...
jetsettin’ went splendidly seeing the boy was magical coming home to a ticket in the post for the black kids show at koko wed night-brilliant. (mainly because i forgot i bought it) andy talked me into a festival of sin at the purple turtle last night…silver men on stilts was really a choice way to spend valentine’s day hangover of the century today work tomorrow
seriously my heart is going a million beats a minute i’m so excited
i’m not getting to the lady gaga and lily allen show tonight. PICCADILLY LINE: Suspended between Acton Town and Uxbridge due to adverse weather conditions. Severe delays are occurring on the rest of the line. NORTHERN LINE: Minor delays are occurring due to adverse weather conditions. MOST LONDON BUSES ROUTES HAVE BEEN WITHDRAWN FROM SERVICE DUE TO ADVERSE WEATHER AND DANGEROUS ROAD...
so due to everything ever being shut today: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/7864315.stm it is kind of cute how they’re freaking out, but i wouldn’t want to be on a bus in 10 cm of snow anyway. any snow really. getting home from hackney last night was brutal. it was a full on blizzard by the time we were in victoria. …it’s officially a snow day!! …
After the epic night that was Andy’s surprise birthday at Catch, the morning consisted of a promenade in the park, making soup and a pie. We watched the Edukators and I got back to my flat around 8pm. The bus I was on back from Reuben’s today was hit by a snowball. Speaking of snow, fuck Russia. It just keeps getting worse too. I’d be wishing for a snow day, but i work three...

elena was supposed to visit from milan this weekend, but of course london being a little bitch, deported her for no apparent reason back to italy. of course it’s the sunniest and prettiest day every today and i have no friends to show off my bitchy little city to. of course i’m going to still try to get to the frankmusik gig at cargo tonight, but without the plus of it being a great...
I just got free tickets to see Master Shortie. Seriously my life is complete. (actually the whole show is Mr Hudson / Friendly Fires (DJs) / Master Shortie / Esser / Fred Falke / Drums of Death / Goldierocks / Too Many Tramps / Ou Est Le Swimming Pool (DJs), which will be pretty epic) I also booked my Black Kids ticket, and have already received my Fleet Foxes ticket. I found the most AMAZING...

i have to stop staying awake until 6 am. it is throwing off my christmas shopping schedule. i finished patrick’s present: a shirt from the wolf parade gig in camden. a build-your-own owl (i have a matching one). and the signed alaska in winter record i got at the gig back in october. i got katy a zebra print mini skirt and crazy fishnets. …i bought myself two new pairs of boots, three...
we’re getting our christmas tree delivered today. i ordered tickets to the fleet foxes show 24 february. two-thousand-nine. february. two thousand nine. i’m exhausted and my eyes are bloodshot and i have done nothing to deserve this.
it was the second thanksgiving in a row that i’ve spent in a group of haphazardly collected friends instead of with family at ‘home.’ i called my brother and he was asleep. maybe the tryptophan caused him to hang up on me. this is forcing the concept of home, however far it had gone from what it once might have been, even further away. i’ve been losing it since maine, and...

Tonight I sprang forth for the Oh No! Oh My! gig at 229. I went alone, late. It was a fabulous show and hanging out with everyone afterwards was fabulous. Some photos from their show: A short while later, we were all in the band’s absurd van headed to the after party. Not sure exactly what I was getting myself into, I just went with it…we ended up at Bungalow 8..! What. Seriously....
bought my ticket to see oh no! oh my! on thurs. six quid. amazing.
Facebook. Election day. All of my friends are Obama fans.
