taken in singapore.
okay, so big news is i made a date for the letter writing club, set a venue and even made a flier. so if you’re in perth and you want to get together for fun in a pretty cool zine/art shop, then mark down february 5th in your diary. we’ll be having meetings every first friday of the month after that. here’s the facebook event page…
spent the afternoon trying to write an artist promo blurb but really ended up blasting their cd and looking up other people’s press releases. and as such, it has led me to the conclusion that i will one day be reborn to form a bitchin’ girlfriends band such as beaches. cos as a lady in this life, i don’t have much luck with forming ladies ensembles.
and on current peeves, i like to bring my baggu sometimes to the supermarket. but everytime i try the self checkout at woolworths, the girl with the swipe card will have to rescue me as my “own bag” doesn’t please the computer program. this guy thinks the retarded machines only like the green eco woolworths bags, and this other guy says it happens at every woolworths. uh, self checkout still requires a helper?
last night i also missed out on the injured ninja/french rockets split 12″ launch. this is why i probably should have gone. i ended up watching control on tv and pottering about at home. i had great difficulty distinguishing the fictional ian curtis from the real, archival one. not a bad directorial debut, and spookily shot in black and white, which is how joy division exists in my mind, their promo photos being mostly monochrome, like their artwork. a sign of the times then…
maybe i should shoot more b&w pictures…
