Introducing the Murdermobile
Word of advice, if you’ve got things to do. Do NOT pick up Volume Five of The Diary of Virginia Woolf, thinking you’ll just read it in dribs and drabs in between the more useful things you do. Don’t do it, because you’ll end up super-glue-ing the book to your palms and the whole world around you will just cease.
Otherwise, a lovely brunch this morning with my friend from Japan’s sister and her husband, only because the world is very small. And tonight a small dinner party chez us with The Girls. We splurged and bought Johnny Cash Live at Folsom Prison yesterday, and we love it. I am also enamoured with Jack Johnson’s video for Upside Down. You can watch it here if you do so desire.
And how sinister is this? Wouldn’t you be a bit concerned if you found it parked outside your house? We call it The Murdermobile, and it parks itself around our neighbourhood- we’ve never actually seen it in drive. There is an entire horror movie lurking within it, I suspect.
Hilarious! I love reading your blog, Kerry, although I’m shitting myself now that I found out you’re all done with your portfolio. Especially because I’m watching “What Not to Wear” four sentences into my story, 16 pages into my portfolio. Eeeks! How are you so organized? Ooh, and I’ve read “The Book of Common Prayer” and I have to say, it’s one of those books I’d read again. But good for you for reading so much. I wish I could be a reading-writing-knitting-trix like you.
