So here I am trying out this whole Blog thing. Yip getting on a new level of the information super highway with nothing but a disposable camera, a glass of water, and a post card of Snap the Norwich Dragon (he cracks me up, I love that guy.) As someone who uses the title of ‘writer’ I don’t actually write as much as I should so I’ll do my best at up-dating this sucker but I do worship regularly to the almighty God of procrastination.
Speaking of which, I’m waiting right now to hear if I’ve gotten on the PhD course, but till then I’ve finally got a visa and I know how to use it. Not visa like a credit card but more like the nice man down the block (Charles Clarke) said I could work. So while I really want the job at the library, I did just have an interview to sell newspapers on street corners. What do I do with my honors B.A. and Masters? I sell things on street corners; still there are worse wares to sell on corners.
Speaking of Home Secretaries I saw David Blunkett once, but he didn’t see me. True story, I recognized his dog first, that’s the sad part. Sorry the non-English might not get that…he’s blind and Charles Clarke took his job. Sad really, but that’s what you get for having an American girl friend, losing the job – not the blindness – that’s a bit harsh. I’ll stop now.
A bit about me for those who don’t know who I am: I’m from Chicago, I now live in the land of Anglos – East Side! Where before me there hasn’t been any new blood in the gene broad since the Normans. I find sheep and short legged, fat bodied, big eared animals inherently funny. My nickname in High School was Opie due to my Andy Griffith theme song whistling and baseball cap wearing antics. I’m into good clean fun, just being a big kid really, which is why I teach and perform improvisational comedy. I don’t like doing anything that eight year old won’t do. But on the other hand I am an old lady at heart as well because I feed the neighbor’s cats, watch people out on the street through net curtains, and go to the North Norfolk coast for lavender flavored ice cream.
Oh, that’s enough about me, you probably know who I am anyway, and if you don’t well…enjoy.
