what i did today.

to say i woke up would be a total overstatement. I've been destroyed by a hangover all day, after getting welcomed back to madrid in the madrid way. going from bar to street to bar to atm to bar to street to club. Walking back through Sol, I heard the clock on the Casa de Correos chime, and remember trying really hard to count the chimes as i couldnt make out the hands on the clock face. I think there were 5 of them, but i'm not sure. I know i fell asleep fully clothed and with the light on. So today i did a bit of organising, took flo's bike to the bike repair shop, who told me that they wouldn't even look at it (wtf), got the number of some place in Embajadores who will (i still don't really understand why they said no...) so i'm doing that tomorrow morning. Oh and i started a band. They're called Gifted Children, which everyone thinks is a shitty name (apart from me) and so far the members are 2, me and garage band. But still, it's a better name than cock biscuit, and it's fitting cause my little sister just got 11 a stars in her gcse's. So yeah, well done her, and welcome back to madrid for everyone. It feels good you know, a ton of work to do, good people. I think what's left of 2009 is going to be great. 

here i am, if you are a girl or a teenage boy who plays the drums please get in touch.

O.M.G.I.M.Y.




IT WAS THE FIRST DAY OF 

YOUR NEW JOB AT THE ART GALLERY


ALL THAT MORNING

I'D BEEN BURNING TOAST


AND MAROONING BARELY SMOKED CIGARETTES

ON THE EDGES OF ASHTRAYS


MY WHOLE DESK 

WAS LIKE THE BREAKFAST TABLE

OF THE MARIE CELESETE


I WAS LOOKING FOR SOMETHING ONLINE

BUT FORGOT WHAT IT WAS SO I 

CLICKED THE LINK TO YOUR BLOG


YOUR FACE

WAS ON  THE SCREEN

NEXT TO A YOSHIMOTO NARA POSTCARD

OH MY GOD I MISS YOU IT SAID


I MISTOOK YOUR HONESTY 

FOR SOMETHING TACKY


THE REFLECTED SUNLIGHT OFF THE WAVES

BUT NOT THE DEEP BLUE AND GREEN GREY.
