Amon Tobin; apple juice; slumber parties especially when they are more party than slumber; Entourage; new shoes; everyone at the Sex & The City casting looking so damn fly; big glowing Aquarian moons (did you see that yesterday?! The sky over Manhattan was blue all night!); “all unicorn vomit all the time”; soy gouda sandwiches with avocado & plum tomatoes; long hair anticipation (yessssssssss); girlfriend anticipation (Nadia Nubby Jazzi Sammy & Angel, & all before October!); planning a NubbyJazziGala adventure on the scale of our Disneyland exploits at the start of the year (tricky but we will manage!); Chicago (If You Leave Me Now & Baby, What A Big Surprise!!!); reading lots of articles about fascinating people & feeling totally inspired; taking the dog for a walk in my sleepwear; late night impromptu photoshoots with Chloe; Kings Of Leon (um, why did I not know how great they were before now?); Sextrology: The Astrology of Sex and the Sexes (I just got it the other day & some of it has made my jaw drop with its terrifying accuracy); my UPS guy who calls me “DAHHHHHHHHLING”…

Being a little too liberal with the silver glitter hairspray in my dimly-lit bedroom & emerging from my haus looking like a fairy orgy; long, strenuous vinyasa yoga classes taught by Swedish instructors with dulcet, mellifluous voices — & lavender eye-pillows to rest with at the end; catching the ferry across to New Jersey on a beautiful day (um, before the heavens opened, that is); lying in bed reading How To Be A Hepburn In A Hilton World; big piles of pillows; The Dish looking at my outfit & saying, “Are you on drugs?” & then being photographed in it by Elle magazine, hahaha!; coming up with new mantras with Nubby (like “LIZARD PEOPLE ARE SEXY”); Captain Eo!; learning new things (about Ducatis & Spanish pronounciation); running into friends on the street; the fact that my apartment is on an insane slope, & things will roll from one side of the floor to the other (sometimes I feel dizzy walking through the hallway); describing things as “epiglottal” — like if a beautiful sky made your breath catch in your throat, that could be epiglottal (you can partially blame Super Kawaii Mama for that one!); Grand High Witch obsession (favourite villain, I think, & what I wouldn’t give to be able to spit ink); super-stretchy yummy-sore yoga muscles; stashing treats in the fridge; air conditioning…

“Confine yourself to observing & you always miss the point of your own life. The object can be stated this way: Live the best life you can. Life is a game whose rules you learn if you leap into it & play it to the hilt. Otherwise, you are caught off balance, continually surprised by the shifting play. Non-players often whine & complain that luck always passes them by. They refuse to see that they can create some of their own luck.” — Frank Herbert (from Chapterhouse Dune)
