The Vaselines - Sex with an X

I don’t know how many times I’ve listened to this but a lot would probably get close. There should probably be some sort of justification and explanation from their side on how they dare to release such a good album twenty years after the last. It’s indecent! (Please! More!)

My left leg, the one I hit hard in a bench a year and a half ago or so, hurts again. I must have done something bad to it. It’s not as late as it usually is but I’m tired and rugged. Cold too. The throat is raspy. Sleep seems like a good idea, or at least bury myself underneath the warm cover and hug a pillow — because you use what you’ve got.

Which would you rather have kill you while skinny dipping: piranhas, Jaws, Aquaman, or The Little Mermaid’s Ursula?

Since I’ve got this phobia for lots of water, the probability of me skinny dipping outside of a bathtub is quite small. Quark-small even. But if I were, or any of the above suddenly materialised in said bath, I’d probably choose to be killed by Jaws. That’s the world’s greatest fishing movie so it would be my honour.

But can’t I be nibbled to death by Ariel instead? No? Crap, not even in death I’ll get to be happy.

I caved in — can one do that with a invite/application to join place? — and got a behance page. I need to get better at that “networking” if I’m going to get somewhere with this painting business. You’d think I’d be pretty good at that with all the people here, but then you’d be very wrong. Very kind though, but still wrong.

This is the food plan.

Bucatini pasta no 9.
Minced meat simmering for a stretch of time in:
quite a bit garlic
tomatoes
basilica
sage
black pepper
Hungarian paprika
chilli spices
Freshly bought bread

I might be able to eat in an hour. Might — it has already been on the stove for a bit but I’m really not tempting fate.

GPOYW. Not a self-portrait so it might be cheating. I’m okay with that. Right then it was too warm for me to wear the Jayne hat but if you look closely you can see the Blue Sun t-shirt.

Wow, I haven’t had an allergic reaction like that in a long time. Sorry you had to experience that on your trip. Allergies can be so miserable.

And I still have no real clue what triggered it. Might be a small insect or something. I’ve ruled out all the food — far too long between the allergic shock and eating. I hope I never ever experience that again.

Roger, he sings in the group. He looks like that. The combination of youthful innocence and more dishevelled biker/redneck is amazing. It makes him no justice.

that looks like so much fun! I want to do that!

The four days camping with this lot is one of the best times of the year. Even when it’s freezing cold. The campfire, the singing, the beer, the stupidity, the night badminton, the people. I sneeze and the body is kind of a wreak but I want to go back already.

I take far too much personal. Being stuck and sort of slowly slowly crawling out into the darkness without any sense of direction — metaphorically — does things to you, me I obviously get a bit needy and with far too many self-esteem blows.

I’ve got a cold, but damn, I want to go back out there with the people at the camp-fire. Four days is too fucking short time. Found Rock of Ages on vinyl though, so that will do for company.

Three things went wrong.

The first two happened already on the Tursday so great start. The train had a electric error so it took an hour extra. Which shouldn’t be a problem unless it were for the second problem. One channel in my headphones said bye bye and left. I didn’t know if it were the cord, the headphones or the mp3-player. I hoped it would be the cord otherwise I’d be up shit creek. (Spoil the ending: it was the cord.)

The third thing though, it still makes me a bit nervous. I got a headache on Saturday. I tried all the usual remedies: bottles, pills and sin. Neither worked. Around 22 it was really bad so I went in the cabin to sleep a bit and hope it would disappear. It did, sort of until the shit-covered fan kicked into a higher gear.

I felt sick and I did sick, and then it happened. The worst fucking allergic reaction I’ve ever had in my life. Pure body horror reaction. There were bumps all over the body — all over the body — and there was this itch. Every itch, every scratch brought me closer to the new flesh.

In my bag I found medication from three different makers, just to be sure I took one of each. That worked. Wonders even, there is no trace of the body horror incident except in the memory. And that’s bad enough.
