This is why dating in the St8 community is tough for me. Cos I'm not excited by the HedgefundHarrys yet so many of my chums want to hook me up with a geezer like that. I am working in total muggle world these days at work HOWEVER, it KILLS me each day just listening to these people and the worlds most boring conversations.... Each morning I'm in the lift going up to the 53rd floor my ipod playing U-roy or Fela while these idiots only talk about shite like their weekend BBQ with their families, their vacation (to florida or Jersey shore)... coming into 'the city' at the weekend... it's painfully pedestrian. I have a small shrine on my desk of people to inspire me - Oscar Wilde, Paul Robeson and Subcommandante Marcos.... I can't tell you how many people have asked me to explain who all of these people are (they have NO idea who Wilde is!). If anything the close proximity makes me feel subversive even if my outfits are far from'clownish'.
I think back when my son was about 4 or 5 and i was looking at some photos that Madge Madison had taken of us out one night and Luka all lil babe says "Mummy did u go the circus!?" totally innocent.
