Misc.

Chicago was lovely. Holidays are great. There is more to say but not much time to say it in. And no home internet access for the moment, which I suspect will drive me mad remarkably quickly. Although it might help with my resolution to get enough sleep; I actually got some rest in Chicago and I feel SO much better in myself. Not sleeping is clearly a fool's game and although I can't do much about my owlish body clock it is time to crack my ridiculous psychosomatic insomnia.

In the meantime, Dinosaur Comics is always awesome, but given my fascination with tattoos I particularly liked this one.

And today I have discovered that Julieta Venegas, one of my favourite Mexican Singers, will be at Shepherd's Bush in October. She doesn't seem to do a lot of gigs - or at least she hasn't been on tour since I got into her music - and I would so much love to see her live. But it would be very odd and maybe sad to do so in London, especially without any other Julieta fans to go with. So do I assume I will be in Britain by then - that's the plan - and buy a couple of tickets? What a strange thought, to be planning my life so far ahead, and so far away...
