annanotbob's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I got some money cos I just got paid In a better place this evening, thanks in no small part to the wise words of my friends here at diaryland. I'm listening to Jay-Z, live from the pyramid stage at Glastonbury where I'm sure Ren is right this minute. [edit - maybe not - just spotted Massive Attack are on the other stage] He opened with Wonderwall - canny move. He seems to be going down a storm. I'm liking it, though I can hardly catch any of the lyrics (just heard 'only god can judge me so love me or leave me alone'), but I like the sound and groove of hiphop or whatever this is. I lived on a heavy diet of Dr Dre related music blasting down from Ren's room throught the late 90s and though I was relieved when it stopped, I now find I like to hear it. Tonight is about as far from anything 'street' or alternative as it's possible to get - it's community singing for the stoned middle classes - we're on 'I want you back' now, having had 'Rehab' realier. Whew - had to turn it off - I'm here, not there. May have to listen to Leoneard Cohen tomorrow though - still haven't entirely dismissed the idea of driving down there, sneaking in to see Len then hurtling back without seeing anyone. ... Just texted Dot to see what time he'll be on, though I won't get a reply till she checks her phone to try and round up her boys after the show. I could do it - I've done little more than breathe today and I could go to bed in a bit and have a good night's sleep... It's been a restful day, partly because I couldn't sleep last night. I discover that if you happen to be awake at 4 am, just before it starts to get light, you can't hear yourself think for young seagulls and fox cubs whoopin' and squawkin' and howlin' to the moon. Shockingly loud, creepy noise. Me and Bob didn't like it and snuggled together like a pair of wusses. Today my main achievement has been brushing my hair and putting it in a plait. You can imagine how exhausting I found that, so it's been the sofa ever since' really. Letting myself be. Dinner tonight was a whole tube of pringles, a handful of tomatoes, two panna cotta and a nectarine. Grateful for: You guys; the opportunity and peace of this week; having a pouch of Drum tobacco upstairs as I've just run out of proper stuff; peonies - I bought two bunches yesterday; my little house on a hill Proud of: just chilling Sweet dreams xxx |11:16 p.m. - 28/06/2008 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
