All alone

A is in the US - her first time...she rang a while ago....can't believe how big everything is...sounds excited. I am here on the sofa with the laptop and the dog. Damm the f**king closet...i always thought we would go to the states together and see things together and go wow and escape for a while. But she is away on a work type holiday thing for 10 days and I am stuck here....

Amazing to see the power cuts in NY, CT etc...wow...no money and no air conditioning...no water...

A friend is coming over for lunch tomorrow, it will be good to have some intelligent conversation and good to cook....Fuzz I love you dearly but four legs, a wag of the tale and an odd lick on the face is not doing anything for me....

yuck....hate new things

arrrrgh 20 minutes in and this software is doing my head in...

Those of you who know me in rl might know I watch far too much reality tv than I would care to admit to. However I will admit to watching Fame Academy and series two on BBC looks like having something different of interest to observe. Alex Parkes is 19, with attitude and a great voice and she's come out! For reality TV pop shows this is news....so used to young gay men or young men hiding their sexuality on these shows. So watching might be interesting. Seemingly she is worried about being out and the implications for her family etc. Her fellow competitiors seem supportive...be intersting to see how its covered by the beeb....more anon no doubt. For a look see got to BBC - Fame Academy - Profile:
