i've only been out drinking twice so far this term. i've handed in every bit of work on time and attended every lecture. i've done pretty much 50% of the allocated reading that i ought to have done by this time.

what's up with that? i feel far too clean-living. so tonight, grace a the supercool billyphatu, king of kings, i went to see an amazing play (The Pillowman, on tour at the moment, shades of Shockheaded Peter and Pinter and delicious twisted darkness), managed not to accidentally leave in the interval (seriously, it seemed finished - but it OhSo wasn't), gatecrashed a Q&A with the cast (who is jordan metcalfe and what have i seen him in before?), drank coffee in an impeccably tidy room until midnight... and now, at half past midnight, i plan to write the essay that is in for 9.45am tomorrow morning.

i have systematically chosen to give myself an essay crisis, just for kicks.

is this normal behaviour? a conscious decision to do an essay in the small hours of the morning, when you've had more than enough time to do it earlier on? scheduled urgency, pre-ordained emergency?

i have to dirty up. it's time for tattoos and piercings and dreadlocks and orgies and alcohol poisoning and telling tutors to go fuck themselves. ok, maybe it's just time to get the hedwig tattoo and have a glass of dooley's and a night in with kate when i should be working. but that's still wilder than i have been.

i need to see myself on stage. inside out. a tangle of garlands in my hair. of course i'll be pleasantly surprised...

take a chance you stupid ho

jordan metcalfe appears to have been oliver twist in a recent london production. i thought i knew the name as well, but that's not where i thought i knew it from.

Hey hey

Sorry about missing you on MSN - I've been ridiculously busy recently. The internet is left on 24/7 so if I don't talk to you it's definitely 'cos I'm not here! I'm seeing this production of The Pillowman on Sat 12th, so perhaps we can compare notes after that :o). I've already seen it at the NT when it was originally on, so I know the play, but I'm interested to see how it has been adapted for touring. The ironic thing is that for all the awkwardness in arranging the tickets for you to pick up, I got two emails offering free or very cheap student seats for the Oxford leg!

Next week I am seeing "Strictly Dandia" at Hammersmith (?), a Peter Brook production in French and Macbeth with that camp, fat actor, Simon Russell Beale. Did you know that Monty Python...Finally In French is on in London at the mo?
