You're so vain.

Life is domesticity. Is good.

Down the pub with [livejournal.com profile] pndc on Friday. First some Soho wanker pub with off Old Peculier, then one of the zillion Sam Smiths thereabouts, then the Kings' Arms, a bear pub. We felt odd being clean-shaven. Probably the only gay pub you'll find them giving two hoots about the real ale.

[livejournal.com profile] arkady has gone to Wales for the week, so Freda can meet her sisters.

My mother Helen is visiting London for a fortnight. She visited Antarctica at Christmas and showed us photos. THOUSANDS OF PENGUINS.

MySpace fills the vast consumer demand for the opportunity to make home pages that look like a smurf on acid threw up. Its core audience is the same people who twenty years ago got a Mac and used nineteen fonts in every document.

I wouldn't compliment MySpace like that. MySpace's core audience consists of the scions of those who bought a Mac fifteen years ago so they could pump out a piece of derivative crap just as unreadable as anything they say in Wired or Mondo 2000. In many ways, I'm glad that the MySpace archipelago is there, because this way they aren't trying to crank out zines.

(By the way, a bit unrelated: I take it the package hasn't arrived yet?)
