He was shakin' lots of bacon- cook an egg in his shoe

Today it is the kind of cold that makes deep breathing an impossibility. Students are walking around campus between classes- each of us under-dressed- clearly under-prepared for the intensely frigid air and huffing blasts of hot air at our curled fingers in vain attempts to thaw them. It's currently 4:03, the nearby schools have let out and herds of children are huddling in the doorway of our flat to escape the wind, many of them with boxes of fried chicken from the Jamaican shop called "Bellyfull" just 'round the corner.

We read answering machine messages in the acting class today. Not random messages, it's actually a play though I cannot remember the title. I think I really like this teacher because he considers 'character analysis' was a waste of time, and that knowing what your character had for breakfast or even his name, is useless without heavy textual analysis. And I like that. I'm all about that.

Must pee, exchange change sweats for jeans, and go sing. Actually that's not an uncommon list.

As it's not a list _I_'ve ever needed, it's fairly uncommon in my world.


Then again, "must change, grab sword, go to painclass," must be unusual for others..


How goes the price of yoghurt, love?
