PREGNANCY

2010-01-10T14:02:00.000-08:00

I havent posted on here for 9 months. 9 months ago, I started working full time at American Apparel Oxford St (big ups to LO7). I believe there is a link between these two facts.
So, here it is, my first post since what can only be described as the dawn of time. Not much has actually happened in this period of time. I moved house, from lovely old Greenwich across the Thames to the East End. I was briefly a redhead. Loved it. Winter came so I'm dark again. I visited (in very brief intervals) some really inspiring places like Glastonbury, Bristol, Stonehenge and Toulouse. Michael Jackson died and I was devastated (long live the King). I am furthering my musical output with a Keyboard...and that really is about it. But wasnt 2009 a load of shit really?

Artistically I have all but dried up! Im so frustrated with all of it anyway. I have millions and millions of scraps of paper with little ideas for either songs or pieces or sounds or whatever it is im trying to do. I havent painted since Spring either! I am trying to pluck up the courage to upload some stuff onto here, maybe scans of the scribbles and ideas which seem to come in freak spontaneous thunderstorms of intense creativity. Because of this I make sure to always carry a pen..and an overdue electricity bill I continue to ignore the existence of...SUCH IS LIFE

Thanks to Ruth for reminding me I have this blog and I shouldnt neglect it.

Forgive me Blog.

I read somewhere an interview with Agyness Deyn and she was asked what her favourite Queen song is. She chose this. I had a little chuckle. I know this might be turning into a Queen fansite/Playlist or whatever, but i cannot help but eventually voice my opinions on this, once and for all. I think, hands down, the grrreatest song of all time. And this was number one for 9 weeks! A song this complex, yet utterly brilliant.

In Greek mythology, the winged horse that sprang from the blood of the Gorgon Medusa when she was decapitated by the hero Perseus. He carried Bellerophon in his fight with the chimera, and was later transformed into a constellation.

New obsession. I think, the Antiques Roadshow coming out in me...spotted in Greenwich Market, my new stomping ground

"These boxes and furniture are made in the souks of Damascas. The inlay is designed by an artisan who hand-makes the design using fine woods and mother-of-pearl. This mosaic inlay is a speciality of Syria, whose artisans are known throughout the world for their fine work"

Typset 'Morris'. Influenced clearly by Morris and the Pre raphaelites. These are just preliminary scribblings and I plan to rework some of the letters soon

I think they're called Signas, im not entirely sure. I was reading up on some artists that combined the signatures to their name to make an attractive logo, representing them as would a signature. The Arts and Crafts and Pre-raphs were best known for this.

And down the river's dim expanse
Like some bold seer in a trance,
Seeing all his own mischance -
With a glassy countenance
Did she look to Camelot.
And at the closing of the day
She loosed the chain, and down she lay;
The broad stream bore her far away,
The Lady of Shalott.

Led Zep, in my time of dying.

2009-01-21T13:43:00.000-08:00

In my time of dying, want nobody to mourn
All I want for you to do is take my body home

Well, well, well, so I can die easy (X2)

Jesus, gonna make up my dyin' bed.
Meet me, Jesus, meet me. Meet me in the middle of the air
If my wings should fail me, Lord. Please meet me with another pair

Well, well, well, so I can die easy (X2)

Jesus, gonna make up.. somebody, somebody...
Jesus gonna make up... Jesus gonna make you my dyin' bed

Oh, Saint Peter, at the gates of heaven... Won't you let me in
I never did no harm. I never did no wrong

Oh, Gabriel, let me blow your horn. Let me blow your horn
Oh, I never did, did no harm.

I've only been this young once. I never thought I'd do anybody no wrong
No, not once.

Oh, I did somebody some good. Somebody some good...
Oh, did somebody some good. I must have did somebody some good...
Oh, I believe I did

I see the smiling faces
I know I must have left some traces

And I see them in the streets
And I see them in the field
And I hear them shouting under my feet
And I know it's got to be real
Oh, Lord, deliver me
All the wrong I've done
You can deliver me, Lord
I only wanted to have some fun.

Hear the angels marchin', hear the' marchin', hear them marchin',
hear them marchin', the' marchin'

Oh my Jesus... (repeat)

Oh, don't you make it my dyin', dyin', dyin'...cough
