So last week I had this brilliant idea that I was going to start writing a screenplay. It’ll be an adaptation of a verse novel - I have unsuccessfully tried to write a screenplay for it before.
I’m still waiting for the secondhand copy of Peter Ackroyd’s Chatterton that I purchased off eBay the other day. My mind is starting to feel a lot more active and work is winding down again so I’ll have lots of time to write.
I finally found that Bruno Pronsato album I was after, but it’s the Boys Noize one that’s totally got my attention at the moment - damn it rocks hard! I also bought The Tudors on DVD! Am so horribly excited, and am hoping to watch it with my former Elizabethan lit classmate over the weekend.
A meme! w00t!

It’s such a comforting smell. I guess it’s similar to mothers always smelling nice after they come out of the shower/bath - I especially remember that as a kid.
