February is gone and the words I would use to describe it include:

fine

okay

what-evs

sigh

At least it’s not dark in the morning any more.

Anyway following is a list of my months pursuits, something I hope to be a semi-regular feature here. This is mainly to aid my addled memory in the years to come. A short, to the point list about what I read, listened to and watched. I see it saving me a lot of time once i retire. I can reminisce in a time efficient fashion, thus freeing up time for bowls, knitting and amateur sleuthing.

Read

Prozac Nation - No no no. Why did I even pick this up?

Barabbas - Am still reading it, but so far very good.

Changing - Liv Ullmann - A bit cringey love thyself hear me roar, but still really interesting.

Twinkle Twinkle - Gentle and nice.

Murder at the Vicarage - I guessed.

Agatha Christie - An Autobiography - So great. I bet she said “stuff and nonsense” all the time.

Heard

Lots of Joe Meek stuff including a childhood favourite:

Francoise Hardy for the first time ever. She is so pretty. Still.

And Os Mutantes. Psychedelic recorder? Yes please!

Saw

A lot of crap telly.

Some good telly.

Jesus Camp - Scary

His Girl Friday - Bolshy

The Long Goodbye - Elliot Gould is so cool.

Pretty In Pink - I can’t believe she butchered Annie Pott’s lovely dress to make that preggy smock.*

Some Kind of Wonderful - Okay

Dig - Heroin-y

Grey Gardens - Beautiful and depressing

This Film Is Not Yet Rated - Cheeky

Well. I really felt like I sat on my arse and did nothing this month, but I guess I was wrong. I sat on my arse and did all those things. Guess I don’t have to feel like my life is slipping away in an unproductive haze then.

So February. How was it for you?

* Um so that wasnt Annie’s dress. My bad.
