I didn't think I'd sustained too many injuries when I went
hurtling over the vacuum hose yesterday but today my
whole body feels like it’s been battered & then taken
apart and reassembled with every piece slightly out of
alignment.

I guess when the bloke comes round to read the electric
meter in most people's houses it’s pretty uneventful.
Here's how it goes in my house. "The meter might be in a
cupboard love"
"Oh OK" so I reach for the handle of the big "under
stairs" cupboard and as soon as I turn it, I realise my
mistake! I can feel an entire lifetimes worth of hoarded
junk, breaking free from behind the door that's held it
back like a dam all these months.
I try to push back but the force is too strong and you can
hear an ominous rumbling and a series of bumps and
bangs as shit starts to hit the inside of the door. The
door flies open into my face and what can only be
described as a tsunami of jumble gushes out, pinning me
to the wall. "No. No gas meters in here." I manage to yell
from beneath the rubble. "I think you should just leave
now." Apparently he had already left.

Crying yourself to sleep in a bed of clouds under the gaze
of the moon! My Birthday next week, so Birthday drinks
tomorrow night at the Halloween Party. Anyone who
makes the effort to come and join us I will let you buy
me a Birthday drink! Can't say fairer than that can I?
