the radio is there when you are sleeping

hello

some things happened recently

on wednesday i went to edinburgh to see lovely people at canongate

i wandered around the offices and used the toilet twice

in the toilet there i looked at myself in the mirror and laughed for a bit

there were some cover designs for grow up and they were good

francis bickmore is a handsome man with a microwave heart

we went out and ate turkish food and i refused to eat anything that wasnt meat basically

i stayed in a hotel and went to glasgow in the morning

i met stephen o'toole and kirsty turkington

later stephen o'toole disappeared

later he appeared again

later crispin best appeared

in scotland you cant buy alcohol after 10pm except in pubs

the next day we went to a pub with a bad name and sat there for ~8 hours

at some point we went downstairs in the pub and it was a club that played jackson 5 a lot

there were metal bands playing in the pub

a girl said to me 'i like death metal, but my secret love is hardcore'

i went outside for a cigarette and the girl i was talking to started crying and crispin and stephen and kirsty saw it through a window and thought it was funny

she was crying because i punched her womb or something

a lot of things happened

i dont remember all of them

a tiny, extremely excitable man appeared and started dancing outside

feel like i cant really write things about it because i might get told off because 'privacy'

but if i was someone else and i was writing about it i would put this: ;] after stephen's name

in the morning there were two women at stephen's house

we watched 'hot tub time machine' and it was very good

there was a part in it where 'the boy' typed into his phone 'lou looks like stewie from family guy'

and every time i went to the toilet after that i thought about it and laughed

i am laughing about it right now

oh this wasnt a very good blog post i expect

felt very conscious of not typing things about other people too much not because i am important

because it is rude maybe

not sure really what the etiquette is really in regard to 'blogs and real life'

hello ana carrete

hello sarah san

nothing is pretend today

good morning
it is valentines day today
how exciting
there are two dogs in my life
one is a mastiff and one is a retriever

my favourite review in the garden was written
by rmp
it is of fences and an island of fifty
it is here
it made me feel like a microwave with milk in it for a while
TO CELEBRATE
ML Press are offering copies of An Island of Fifty for $10 with free shipping

(it says 12 but when you click through it will say 10)
that is a very lovely deal i think
you could just buy it and tear out pages to use as bookmarks
it is 156pp
you will not need to buy any bookmarks for ages
or you could just draw beards and glasses on all the words
or you could give it to someone you want to do sex with
and tell them to email me
and i will woo them for you
dennis cooper put it in his 'best of 2010'
and his a warmhearted honey badger

it looks very pretty anyway

so you could just leave it on a table

for other people to turn through

when they are waiting in your living room

for you to get changed into something sexier than what you were wearing when they arrived

thanks everyone

people have been appearing on my bed recently

which is sometimes nice

on wednesday i am going to edinburgh to see canongate

canongate are nice

everyone is nice in the world, basically

except for the man in the film 'expired'

the one that calls sex phonelines

and says to his girlfriend a lot

'i am so nice to you'

and then shouts at her

thinking about things

there is a chance that within the next ~2 months this blog will become 'a proper blog'

maybe

okay if anyone still reads this

hello

you are all very nice

i want real internet again so i can do gmail

hello

thank you

be okay
