There are a few things I want/want to do this month. I might keep doing this on a monthly basis, to ensure that I don’t forget anything. A tick-list if you will. Here goes:
1. To finish So Blonde
This may well happen today actually. I am obsessed. It’s been a battle between my fiancee wanting to play GTA IV and me playing So Blonde. We are utter losers, but we are savouring the last of the free time before work comes around again.
2. To watch The Early Bird
Norman Wisdom was one of my mega heroes as a child. Still is really. He’s just the cutest, most hilarious beaut. His giggle sets me off, even if the joke isn’t funny.
This is my favourite film with him in. He plays an olde-skool milkman, but a much larger milk factory opens up and threatens his local business.
There’s a bit when he eats spiked apples. And a bit where he tries to share a bed with his horse. It’s amazing. Anyway, I haven’t seen it in years and I need it in my life.
Which reminds me of another brilliant oldie…
3. Watch Blithe Spirit
Oh my God this film is fabulous. A man’s dead wife returns from the grave to haunt him, and generally make his life a misery.
And how did the directors show that she was a ghost? Why paint her green of course!

Sexy.
This film is dead funny, and comes complete with a crazy ‘psychic’ lady, a seance, and a ghostly love triangle. Please watch it!
4. Buy Thigh-high boots
These would be perfect:
Or these:
Slutty heaven.
Thing is, I already have a pair that are supposed to be thigh-high. On people with legs of a normal length. I however am 5 ft 10, so calf-length comes to my ankle, and thigh-length usually hits the knee. All legwear is a disaster really. I have to buy large tights to achieve the length, but then I experience Nora Batty ankles. Jeans…well, I’d rather not talk about them. I have searched for about 5 years now too get a pair that truly fits me. It’s not going to happen. DAMN YOU LANK!
5. Health-kick
I love…no LOVE to cook. Food is my life. And I am lucky enough to be able to utilise mother-earth in it’s full entirety, and cook things that sprout from her butt. Vegetables. Seeds. Fruit. You get the jist. So naturally, I eat really healthily. And thankfully I love it. I’m not someone who could eat McDonalds and Pizza Hut every day (the odd delight won’t hurt mind you), unless I lived in New York, where my diet usually consists of Rays Pizza and Cheesecake.
However, over the Christmas period (which in my world is the whole of December), I have been combining my healthy meals with constant heart-stopping snacks. And I mean constant. I am NOT someone who lives for macrobiotic/never-touches-sugar/doesn’t-eat-dairy/doesn’t-drink/is generally a bore – I do not deprive myself. But it’s getting a bit dumb now. To the point that I’m not enjoying any of it, and my feet are slowly but surely disappearing from my vision.
HEALTH AHOY!
6. Get into Scrubs
I always seem to catch odd snippets of this show, but have never watched an entire episode, and I always find it funny. Anyway, my sister thinks it’s the bomb, and the main long-running joke over Christmas was from this show (I won’t tell you the joke as it’s clearly not funny, and my sister and I have a weird sense of humour).
7. Have one last Pizza Express for the month
SCREW ALL THE PIZZA EXPRESS H8ERSSSS!
Yeah yeah, I know this slightly counteracts my healthy eating plan, but my mum invited me to dinner tomorrow. And now the vision of that thin, crispy, cheesy Romano caressing my tastebuds, and massaging my tummy is firmly planted in my head. And I now have to eat the pizza, or something bad will happen. It’s all about Karma you know…ahem.
Anyway, I ate far too many last month, so after monday, my filthy fling with Mr. Romano is over for a while. Just until my body recovers.
8. Start reading my new book
If you refer to my previous post, you will know that I am clearly not going to tell you which books I got for Christmas, because I’m a weirdo. And they’re mine. And you can’t have them.
I think that’s enough for now. Bring on January!
