....up too early

there are some things that should be a particular way
dressing gowns should be white
sports socks should be white
football shirts should only be worn by those playing football
but there are other things that i wonder about
...foods for certain times of day
luke asks for sweets and chocolate on a morning, "you can't have them for breakfast i say". and what if he asked for his favorite mashed potato cheese and beans.... you can't have that for breakfast i'd say!! but why not. because we're conditioned aren't we... cereal and toast or indeed a cooked breakfast as long as its eggs, toms, beans, sausage etc... and while i do sometimes eat cereal through the day it just feels wrong, very wrong.....
......great night at bob trollops the other night, in newcastle. 2wiseguys pitched up for the open mic night and played, "chocolate and sex", "bodyguards and flying baloons", and "the fear" (a lily allen cover.... great night with some excellent and some decidedly dodgy performers... intersting though if nothing else.
.......and then on wednesday.... massive attack .....powerful, beautiful, eclectic, the two hours they played flew over. never used to like bands that used multiple vocalists but, oh, how your opinions do change.... for me the high point of the night was "teardrops" and the realisation it was in fact a massive attack song.... oh how these things sometimes pass me by! still love newton faulkner's version..... i did know it wasn't his but didn't know who's it was!!
