Ok new exercise rules



In a bid to participate in the 2012 Olympics, I've decided there are quite a few sqidgy bits that must be erradicated from this body before it can become the athletes dream it is destined to be. Well slightly over the top but you get my drift. Get my drift, who say that anymore! Actually it's catch isn't it, catch my drift. I'm eating yoghut from a used jam jar this morning as I had nothing else to transport it in, wierd huh. Ok rules:

Less cheese, pizza twice a week will not give me a fit ass!

Less wine, flat stomachs are not to be found at the bottom of a bottle of South Australian Shiraz, boo hoo

No more snooze button, will not ignore my body clock trying to wake me up at 6:50, getting up earlier will get metabolism working sooner (is this true?)

More walking, will get off at Warren St and walk to office, this would be more effective with MBT's but I'm not that rich and would prob look completely stupid anyway

Go for a walk after dinner in bid to stop eating so much crap after dinner, not helped by F chowing down on chocolate fudge golden crunch every night! Wouldn't be so bad if he had an ounce of body fat to show for it, bastard.

Healthy food at work, do not give into Nicole The Feeder, just eat healthy snacks and lunch

More hot water when hungry

Some pilates every morning

More dancing to music videos, always keeping in mind that a stomach and ass like theirs is possible



Ok, go!

Blaze-ing up the place


On Saturday I took F to see Blaze, a street dance performance at Saddlers Wells Theatre. I knew if I told him that was the plan that he would never agree to it but once there, we would love it. I was correct, this is not unusual ; ) It was AMAZING! If you’ve been sitting in awe at ‘So you think you can dance’ and then deciding you really should be a world class dancer and that Online Marketing is really not the way forward, then you need to go see this show. The dancing was mind blowing, the choreography truly inspiring, the tunes absolutely banging and best of all it was full of kids (posh one’s mind you as a ticket was £38.50) so you could see straight over their heads to the stage. We then went on to cocktails at Chancery Court Hotel, unfortunately it was too early for the Pearl so we made do with The Bar, not the best atmos but the best Lychee martini I’ve ever had. I say that as if I’ve had a lot of them but that might actually be my first, hmmm, but I could tell it was good and will be hard to beat, I think, oh well I enjoyed it at the time is what I’m saying. Then we went to One Aldwych Lobby Bar, managed to get a seat yipee and proceeded to drink cocktails until we could drink no more. I even met the guy who invented my blushing Martini, lovely fellow. So basically thoroughly enjoyed F’s Birthday night of fun, maybe a little too much as it reads like my perfect night out and not his. Oh….

Glee, really?

Ok so last week I wasn't really getting Glee but after persisting to endure a 2nd episode I'm kind of warming to it. It's not what I expected, I was hoping for slightly more attractive people to be honest. In particular I was hoping for Zac Efron the 2nd to emerge, maybe a couple of years older than Zac 1st so I don't need to worry that I'm breaking some kind of law. But alas I am severely let down and confronted with some geeky, tall but with no swagger whatsoever, boy who can't control his erm, self?! Rubbish. I like the girl though and all the singing and dancing, which in essence is the basis for the show! Overall I’m a fan. But I think I'd prefer it to merge with 90210 & gossip girl. Although as with most American series’ I’ll be hooked after a few more episodes. How do they do that?!

Beginning to see the benefit of not drinking, at last!

Ok now I'm seeing the benefit of all this non drinking, it means you can be bothered to do loads of exercise! Tuesday went to the gym, yesterday yoga, tonight trying out the new Strictly come dancing class! So excited about this. I love dancing, it's in my top 3 things to do (dancing, laughing & having sex if you must know). I'm in total agrement of last weeks Stylist magazine article on why dancing makes you happy. It's an amazing way to release endorphins and keep fit. I've even started talking to people in my Zumba class on Saturday mornings, which im very proud of as I usually come accross as quite a moody b**ch at 9:30 on a Saturday morning. When someone praises my dancing skills however, I can't resist liking them, I've found a friend for life there ;)


Reckon this will be me soon.



Oh no wait I had a chocolate chip cookie last night, damn it!

Culture and making real life art at Tate Modern's Pop Life




Decided to get a bit of culture in at the wknd. This is what you do when you don't drink! So anyway finally made it to Tate Moderns Pop Life. To be honest it was a little disappointing, as always there were hoards of stupid people who seem to think it's ok to stand right in front of the piece, when everyone else has respectfully stood a few feet back. More annoyingly I'd seen the majority of the pieces for free in various galleries around the world. They'd even put old Andy’s self portrait in there which is usually, or used to be anyway, displayed for free upstairs! This time however, I paid £12.50 for the privilege, bargain. I was however inspired by the two real life twins (part of a Hirst piece I think), to make my own art with my good friend Alice in the Keith Haring room, check it out......
