Saturday Survey

April 2, 2006 by

I watched a whole movie today, all of it, with those audio subtitles for the vision impaired. I couldn’t believe a director would consider it a good creative direction to have someone narrate every image on the screen. I mean, it was painful.

So, I ask myself, is it just me or does Alzheimers seem to be setting in earlier and earlier these days?

I went out last night, for mexican and margaritas. I drank 3 margaritas, and they were divine. Did I ever mention that I love margaritas? Just in case I didn’t… there it is in black and white. I totally love margaritas… Anyway, I could have downed them one after the other, like cordial. I didn’t, I paced myself but I didn’t get drunk, I didn’t even get tipsy.

So, I ask myself, is it just me? Or does it feel just a tiny bit pointless if a frozen confection of tequila, triple sec and lime, inspite of how unbeliaveably great it tastes, doesn’t make you feel just a teeny bit squiffy…

I went for a walk this morning, I haven’t done it in ages. I had been working from the office [my gorgeous bed] and had finished a fabulous web job I’ve been doing for what seems like forever, and I just knew that if I didn’t get some blood moving around my sorry sack of bones it would be criminal.

So is it just me? Or is it totally unfair that the urge to exercise doesn’t occur more than once in a blue moon. I’d be so much less comfortably upholstered if I actually got off my saggy butt…

I painted today, it’s hardly something I do very often, but I’d walked to the cafe, was slugging down my latte and wandered with it over to my favourite newsagent/stationers/toy shop and got stuck in the art supply aisle. I’m pretty crap at painting actually, but I knocked up a triptych that I took a picture of to show it off… Peek

Is it just me or are there moments in everyone’s life when you just HAVE to exercise that creative bent?

I didn’t work at all this afternoon. I didn’t do anything at all except paint, and watch chick flicks. I didn’t even clean the house. I totally should have worked, I have so many things I could do. I totally should have cleaned the house… we had a bug masscre the other evening and I haven’t even swept up the carcasses [sorry, I know, waay too much information].

But I KNOW that it isn’t just me… everyone needs to take a day to just look out for Number One.

    you are too funny – and hurry up and put the pics up, what are you thinking, leaving cables at home! Sorry I didn’t stagger down the corso but the strawberry wine at the bavarian cafe was just too good!
