Party Prep

Preparing for the party – can’t find a bottle of kahlua but seem to have most other types of alcohol (it seems most unfair given my favourite coctail is a White Russian). I love this stuff. I’ve remarked before on the fact that The Dark Side has saved my life, and that I feel so … Read More


FJ and Gifts

I have had many lovers over the years. I like to keep things to remind me of them, often they are gifts, sometimes (as in the case of Cornish Bloke’s jumper) they’re things I’ve stolen. My darling Jellicle Cat actually gave me a ring, however I have noticed that of all my lovers it is … Read More



Itchy itchy itchy

I am red from head to toe. However I’m breathing better this year – I suspect prescription anti-histamines – THANKYOU M-I-L. The Jellicle has said we can come home tomorrow which I feel awful about because I quite like his parents and this Christmas with them is very strange…well I suspect it’s actually quite usual … Read More


Allergified

I was a very awkward and annoying child to bring up. I was knackered and grumpy and rubbish at all sports except swimming. Yet I loved walking and skiing and people found it wierd that I’d throw myself into climbing and abseiling and all the rest of it when cross-country running and even hockey would … Read More


Being A Grown-Up

From about the age of eighteen I have said at various times in my life, hey it’s ok – I’m an adult/grown-up I’m happy to accept my parents would rather not know about the less conventional sides of my life. We can move through our lives like adults, politely and without the need to explore … Read More


Parents and Poly

Homosexuality is almost accepted these days. Outing oneself to ones’ parents is done without batting an eyelid, often in anycase. Bisexuality is a little more of a problem. It gives parents, well actually anyone who wants to, an excuse to pretend that the difference doesn’t exist. I’m with a boy, therefore who needs to acknowledge … Read More


Individuality For Teh Win

This is not about being anti-corporation, I mean c’mon Rage Against The Machine are part of a coporation. This is being pro-choice and individuality. Lets not do the same thing year after year. Lets have The Pogues, Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Tears for Fears and all the rest of them. Ok no more crappy rubbish … Read More


Couldn’t Give A Stuff…

So, I used to be a chart-show addict. Every Sunday at 4pm I’d be glued to the sound of Dr Fox…oh yeah, I was a commercial radio baby not the bbc for me…until my beloved Dr Fox stopped doing it at which point the Pepsi Chart lost it’s appeal. Now this is from the bespectacled … Read More


Jobs, Family and Plans

So, this year is the year I have had a number of problems with greymatter (the software I use to update my blog), however my wonderful boyfriend, The Jellicle Cat has managed to solve these issues with weeks to spare before we’re in a brand new decade. This year I’ve managed to get out of … Read More
