Wandering

I spent the day wandering around London. On foot.

Usually I spend my saturdays sleeping. And usually Sundays too.

At this point I decline to state how much more time I spend sleeping, on that grounds that I don't want to incriminate my sonambulist ass.

I get up when I have to, I make calls to the agencies and the like, but I do sleep a little too much.

But today I got up early. Was it because I consciously wanted to explore London? Did I want to break my bad sleeping patterns (hell yeah, but that wasn't it). Did I have a Job Opportunity?

Maybe, yeah and no.

The truth is that I really really want to see EveryTimeIDie, and i read on the Stargreen last night that it was down to the last two tickets, and the Shop was due to open at 1015 in the morning. (they actually opened earlier, because the heat inside the stargreen office is brutal and the needed an excuse to keep the door open)

anyways, with something like an hour and a half sleep, I hauled my slack ass out of bed, into the shower and down to the Tube Station, just ahead of Masao who was on his way to a shift at his restaurant.

I got to Stargreen to find it already open, I snaffled the ticket and was left deciding what to do with the rest of the day... I vaguely felt like going to Camden, and I also felt like exploring off Oxford Street again, this time the other direction.

So I started with the latter. And I found lots of cool stuff. Forethought had told me to put my new dictaphone into the pocket of my rather inappropriate leather Jacket, so everytime I saw something cool, I made a note of it.

Since I am pressed for time here, i won't transcribe the tape, or even put in a blow by blow account. I'll save that for tomorrow or Monday. (I'm also not at Haiff's Net Cafe, I'm on Tottenham Court Road, my Caff away from home when it comes to posting and blogging).

But I found some really cool stuff. And I saw some really cool stuff, and hopefully, with the tape as a guide, I might be able to find some of these places again.

And I have the new Harry Potter Book.

Yay.

Anyways, more tomorrow.

Over and Out.
