The Weblog of Catherine Bell: Scoto-Land (!)
Sunday, Sep 7 2003, 12:55
OCH! Have just read wee Allan's last blog from scoto-land and am touched, what a cutesie. (I believe he wants me to feed him when he comes to london). Am seriously excited about seeing him too, and hope him going to Laban will give me the good kick up the back-side I sooo badly need to do class more, am totally jealous. I did go to Ballet last friday at Pineapple or should I say Fame Academy- is all jungle trousers and hair flicking there.
What can I say?
Contemporary dance has made me accustomed to greasy hair which is neither straightened nor highlighted and is often found in vast clumps on legs and under arms- and i'm talking about the laydeees. I think it is kinda wholesome though, I mean why not!!?
It grows there for a reason, why are so many people disgusted by it? I had this convo with some of my regulars ( in my pub- times aren't that hard!) and they believe it 'just isn't right', every night I take home pearls of wisdom from the pub! Anyway the Ballet calss was prof level, and was difficult but not imposssible if you know what I mean, I found the peeps there a bit showy though. All teeth and hairspray, oh and pointe-shoes! Never mind, was an experience.
I am working in two pubs at the mo, and I meet so many different people- sunil is a tax man who is going to help me with my tax rebates (am convinced this is going to be huge and solve all money probs), Steve is a copper and gave me some info about the IPCC (independant Police Complaints Commission invetigator job I applied for- haven't heard yet), Peter is a v. keen yogi who has told me all about local yoga, pilates etc. classes. He actually also tried to then tell me a bit about tantric sex! I explained that I wasn't THAT keen.
Anyway you get the picture. I get to know lots of new people and it's not that hard a work when it's not busy. Is a bit demoralising tho sometimes, employed dancers are such lucky people, to be doing what they love day in, day out. Still they don't know sunil, pete and steve!
Have applied for Resolution!!!!!-that exclamation mark irritates me. Don't know what will happen but will blog the result.
Also have applied for interesting full-time jobs, that I could see myself doing for a while. Am a temporary kinda gal I think. At some point before christmas will be off for a month to travel around europa and buy a house with me dear ole ma!That sounds so exciting and I think it will be.
Think that is about all that is happening in the world of the cat. Will be going to see smallpetitklein on thurs at Jacksons Lane if money and my work permits. Think Tommy's stuff is fantastico. Very flicky. If you've seen any of his work you will know what I mean- i think!
