What a marvellous Christmas, though I'm not sure Jesus would have approved. Decided to indulge in my new found hobby of 'abstract for-the-sake-of-it consumerism'. This means buying things for which you have, and could never forseeably find any use whatsoever. Woke up Christmas morning and looked with vague longing at the pile of gifts I had bought myself. Felt a slightly more specific longing and realised that the see-through pantie set was probably about to fall into use, thus exempting it from categorisation in my AFSOIC treasure trove. Ah well, 'the best men are laid low from time to time' as Oscar Wilde said before dropping his drawers for the bath-house glitterati yet again.
Here's me performing at Citizen Cain, Taipei. You can catch me there every other Wednesday. Possibly.
Well done to Haagen Dazs for bringing back a foodie tradition that I thought long dead. Spent a few hours enjoying their 'Chocolate hot-pot for two' with a friend. Sixteen cubes of ice cream, assorted fruit, marshmallows and nuts to dip in your own bubbling pot of melted chocolate. Then spent the next hour and a half vomiting over some pavement. Again, well done to Haagen Dazs for bringing back the age old tradition of 'vomiting after meals'. Not too keen on their recycling policy though.
Got another one today!As I was trying to get off the MRT an old lady barged on and tried to push through everyone to bag a seat. I'inadvertantly sidetackled her to the floor. She won't be doing that again in a hurry! Actually she won't be doing anything again in a hurry, as she has two broken hips and a dismembered leg.
The more astute of you may have noticed it's been a while since my last post, the less astute of you should take courses - I know a good FE College, call me. The reason for my protracted absence is that the harsh call of the limelight has been calling me again.
I have spent the last thirty days holed up in a cave down South after a googly-eyed bald man in an orange robe accosted me outside Taipei Main Station. Possibly a deranged fan, I wanted to take no risks. I ronically, or possibly sarcastically - no, let's say ironically, upon my return I was unable to resist the call to stand-up once more and performed a set at 'Citizen Cain' here in Taipei. Possibly the level of humour heer isn't yet up to Western standards, as the packed room recieved me with only polite applause. And one woman was sick.
