So. How important is it to have flat walls in your house?

Don't lumps add character?
olsen:
Yes, if your walls have tits, I'd say they have character. Otherwise, sandpaper, friend, sandpaper!

This week I have learnt three things that I wish to share.

1. My cat will scratch you if you offer it an onion to smell from the vegtable patch.

2. That after a lot of alcohol, hash cakes have no effect whatsoever.

3. That crocodiles can, and do, live in the desert.
olsen:
Did you learn all three firsthand?

On Saturday I went to see the Damien Hurst (Hirst?) exhibition at the White Cube.

It consisted of 13 dead cows, two dead pigeons, 12 glass cabinets and hundreds of dead butterflies.

Yes, it is better at the supermarket meat counter.

Sometimes I laugh, but it doesn't last very long.

I saw some of his work several years back. I didn't like it in the warm fuzzy sense, but it was very powerful, and I appreciated that.

Snoozing.

Every morning I have to set my alarm clock two hours before I get up so I can snooze.

It's starting to worry me.
olsen:
When do I get to that part?
olsen:
How can you be sure?

So my cat was outside shagging Tom cats (notice plural) on Saturday night - but she has been 'done'.

If a cat is shagging for pleasure not pregnancy - does that make her a slut?

Like drinking formaldehyde? No I think I'd just leave my body to rot and be removed. Part of death as art is the idea of entropy, don't you think? There's a bit of immortality in that as art it is remembered, but memories change, people who hold them die. I don't like the idea of permanance being attached to my corpse.

As to the note, just This is Art. No further explanation, so that people can debate it in art classes or family dinners, or dismiss it as a suicide statistic.

I never thought of that before.

That's a good pic, and you are a day older than me. Alter preconceptions? Interesting.
