williamtildesley-deactivated201 asked: Rosa, I noticed a post on your new blog about the 'follow' button not showing and just wanted to check with you that you'd switched on the function in tumblr. Go to 'Customize Appearance' click 'Advanced', scroll to the bottom and make sure 'Promote Tumblr!' is checked. Hopefully that should work, if not let me know.
No matter what - tea, toast and Radio 4 will make everything normal again.

Wanted to watch Wimbledon this year. Sit in the front room with nothing to do but eat strawberries and drink tea and watch beautiful, athletic people wear white and hit balls around.
Not going to happen - instead I have to work for my father, typing up the second draft of this book-thing he’s writing. It’s not a fun book-thing either; it’s about employment policy.
At least...

I just got a spam Skype call.

I fucking give up.
Richard Cory
fuckyeahpoetry:
Whenever Richard Cory went down town, We people on the pavement looked at him: He was a gentleman from sole to crown, Clean-favoured and imperially slim. And he was always quietly arrayed, And he was always human when he talked; But still he fluttered pulses when he said, “Good Morning!” and he glittered when he walked. And he was rich, yes, richer than a king, And...

I have terrible hoarding tendencies.
Even with clothes, which is not an area that I am especially interested in.
BUT, I think today I may have turned over a new leaf. I just filled one black binbag with stuff for eBay, two with stuff for Oxfam, and one to go straight in the bin.
Maybe I’m growing up, or something.

You guys?
I did a bad thing.
I got a new blog.
Never fear! I’ll still be keeping Electric Paper updated, but I have a whole new account and all sorts for the new one. It’s like, a proper one. With a purpose and stuff.
If you’re even remotely interested in literature of any kind, check it out over here. Please?
Ever think about how many books
drinkyourjuice:
you still have to read and movies you still have to see and albums you still have to hear and places you still have to go and loves you still have to love and homes you still have to make and people you still have to meet and rare elements you still have to discover and think ughhh why the fuck am I checking my email right now?
williamtildesley replied to your chat: Jens’ thoughts on Never Let Me Go
So should I watch the film or not?
That was about the book, not the film, and I haven’t seen the film…so I have absolutely no idea!
Jens' thoughts on Never Let Me Go
Jens: Did you notice that the dialogue is just like in Titanic? "Tommy, I'm horny a lot, is that weird" "I don't think so, Kath, I'm horny a lot too" "Tommy, I see what you mean, but Ruth says it's weird" "Kath, ignore Ruth, she's shit"
Jens: Fucking stop saying each other's names douchebags
Rosa: Hahahahaaha
Rosa: Yeah, the style's really irritating
Rosa: I get the point of it, but it doesn't make it any more enjoyable to read
Jens: Well yeah, I get why he's done it, but he could've done it a lot better
Jens: Like, tried not to be completely shit
[Conversational interlude]:
Jens: Also, on the book - Everyone's going through an identity crisis and looking for their possibles, and Kath thinks she's overly horny. Then she's caught flicking through porn magazines looking only at the faces, yes please explain why she did this eighty pages later because it wasn't fucking obvious in the first place you dick fucking get on with the story.
Alright, so I can't see the lunar eclipse.
I live in the fourth largest city in the UK, so when the experts tell me to find a “non-built-up area where you can easily see the horizon”, I’m sort of fucked. Also I’m too lazy to leave my street, so when I’ve tried the attic window, the first floor window and the ground floor window, as well as the steps up to my front door and both the top and bottom of my street,...
