Working to your own hours is great when your...
That way you can match them and work weird hours too and hang out and be a couple and stuff.

Sophie Calle alongside Guerilla Girls.
Parfait!
I’m sure I probably blogged about it not long after I went, but I’m incredibly hungover and this is by far the most interesting thought I’ve had all day.
Today marks a year since Natalie died.
She was one of the good ones.

Remember how, on Saturday, I was negotiating...
Well, today I am negotiating between my glittery sea green nails and my academic career. I never realised how uncomfortable and/or distracting make-up can make me. I don’t mean that in a self-congratulatory ‘I’m so pretty I don’t need make-up’ kind of way, nor is it a political decision, I don’t mind when people wear make-up, I don’t mind when people...

Today my plan was to beat Robotnik, go to uni, have a swim and then work on my PhD.
But now I’m feeling ill. So I’m probably going to stay home and starve a fever, feed a cold. And beat Robotnik.

AIM confirms [PIAS] stock destroyed, calls on... →

On the way to uni this morning a woman asked me...
Woman: I don't suppose you could spare 9p?
Me: I'm sure I should have 9p.
[I get my wallet out]
[she dabs her face]
Woman: I just squeezed a spot.
Me: Oh right, yeah, I squeezed one this morning too.
Woman: I'm just dabbing my face with this alcohol wipe.
Me: Oh right, yeah.
Woman: It's supposed to be used for heroin.
Me: Oh right, well, I've got 20p, here you go.

Hang on a minute, so you’re telling me that the Fawcett Society has got...
– Comedy sketches that I think up in my office when I’m doing evenings. Unfortunately, the sketch shows would never go into production because I’d be the only person that finds them funny.

I'm turning into my mother, part 2.
Please don’t rain, please don’t rain.
The washing’s out and my freshly painted drawers are drying.
Oh weather, you cruel maiden.

The admin and support staff at the university are...
THIS GODDAMN PLACE WOULD FALL APART WITHOUT THEM.
But, I guess it’s totally fine if you want to fire a bunch of them and then herd the rest into a room that resembles an assembly line.
I’m pretty certain that the boys club that runs this joint thinks only in terms of money. Who needs common sense at a university anyway?
