i'm starting to feel quite at home in "my" basement. this morning, i took in a set of computer speakers and my old CD walkman. music while you work! before i left the house this morning, i closed my eyes and picked up half a dozen cds - by the time i got to work, i had mott the hoople's "the hoople", the first clash lp, stravinky's "rite of spring", toll's "christ knows", johnny thunders' "so alone" and max bruch's collected symphonies.
i was just leaving at lunchtime when i ran into two of the cash room girls. they were heading for lunch, so i tagged along when asked.
of course, the underlying reason for my being invited was the gossip. over the course of lunch, i was asked about both elaine (thursday) and Ms Simone (sunday).
by complete coincidence, my morning had been devoted to a bout of text-tennis; me playing both Ms Simone and elaine (and Stella, now i think of it). i refused to be drawn on who these ladies might be - even when the spectre of the queer-bashing was alluded to.
i couldn't wait to get back and tell both of them about this latest development!
something else i did this morning was post a reply to a new thread on the group. somebody was asking about breadmakers and i threw my tuppenceworth in!
last night's phonecall was the full three hours. again, we discussed Female Supremacy - both the generic take on it and Ms Simone's specific personal requirements.
She’s given me a couple more authors to look up. other Female Supremacists, i suppose. i saved the names into my phone and i'll have a look for them later in the week.
