Monday So it's back to work after SuperBowl Sunday! Butch had a party at his house to celebrate the game so we all piled along and ate lots of Brats (or sausages as we like to call them at home) but without the buns (bread rolls) due to our current obsession with eating no carbs!!! Honestly.....this whole Atkins philosophy must be decimating certain carb-centric businesses!! I mean.....practically everyone I know is trying to give the old carb-thing the heave-ho. Went out with Brody on Saturday night and she introduced me to Jesse,front man for The Eagles of Death Metal and he had me laughing my arse off.He's quite nuts.Flamboyant and nervy and amusingly uninhibited but very shy and unbelievably sweet.He gave me a copy of their record and it is SOOOoooo good.Watch out......this record will make a splash.Of that I have no doubt.

Tuesday I have THE worst period known to man right now and to make matters just that little more unpleasant,I have erupted into a mass of ghastly pimples all over my face and it's making me feel utterly miserable. And just to really cap the experience off nicely,I keep bending over double with the most unbelievable cramps and as a result,am experiencing unbearable rage.I did some calculations yesterday and figured out that I have spent the entire duration of five years menstruating!!! Five years!!!! FIVE YEARS!!!!!!!!!! That is an ENORMOUS percentage of my life when you consider the fact that I didn't even start my periods until I was 12 years old!!! It's so UNFAIR.Why can't boys be the ones who bleed and suffer? And why can't they be the ones who have to walk around for 9 months all swollen and bent backwards,heavy with child? And why can't their bodies be stretched beyond all recognition by birth and breast feeding? Most of the time I love being female but when I'm on my period ,I hate my sex. Anyway......on a more pleasant note, DAve Grohl (or Mr Fantastic as our producer has taken to calling him) came by the studio today and HAMMERED some drums down on "Bad Boyfriend" and the result is fucking AWE-INSPIRING!!!!! OOoohhh....I am FINALLY having so much fun making this record.It feels like how you imagine making records would be.Exciting and creative and joyous.And we've just made so much progress in a week that I can actually imagine we might finish this damned thing afterall!!!!

Wednesday Can't quite believe the furore over Janet Jackson's boob.I mean...for goodness sake people.....leave the poor woman alone.There she is on the front cover of USA Today for the third day in a row,following her ill-advised publicity stunt during the Half-Time SuperBowl and OK.....so it was a rather pitiful and desperate ploy on her part but she doesn't deserve to be publicly humilated for it.It's like a friggin' witch hunt out there! She's on the front of USA Today,quite literally weeping for her sins!!! That's ridiculous!!! It was just a boob! Not even a completely naked one at that!!! I've seen far more disturbing things on commercial tv than a beautiful woman's breast!!! One random example? Every night you can tune in to the NHL to watch proffesional sportsmen beat one another on the ice without any referee penalizing the players. I know for certain if I had children,I would far rather they gazed in wonder at one of poor Janet Jackson's hooter's than watch violence go unpoliced on tv, whilst masquerading as sport.

Thursday Recorded the Manson/Manson duet this evening.Daddy came over with his bass player Tim and we went at it. It was the most fun I've had in months! It was strange because I haven't actually sung in the studio with anyone since my days in Goodbye Mr Mackenze and so it was pretty weird to hear Manson's voice blast into my earphones.I loved it though..........and I love him.He's like some crazy eccentric from another century.He must have arrived here in Dr Who's tardis cause his asthetic,his ideology,his whatever.............. they just don't seem to jive with this time and place.

Friday Had a shamefully lazy day today and did absolutely nothing! I had one of those days that I am sure to regret severely when I'm lying on my death-bed looking back on my life. I will no doubt think to myself: "DAmn.That was a waste of a day.I should have been out there in the world, making exciting things happen in my life!!" Oh well.............instead I ran on the treadmill in a decidedly half-hearted manner and gave up after only 30 minutes.Having spent a long night at the studio I wasn't really in the mood to bang my body around.I then talked on the phone to my sweet mummy,had a bath,read a little,ate some peanuts and mini carrots and smoked a cigarette! I haven't smoked a cigarette during the day for YEARS! I gave up smoking ten years ago and I am perfectly happy about that but I swear to god,I felt the compulsion this evening to lie in bed and smoke a bloody cigarette.So there I was this afternoon, just lying there in my bed,reading and smoking a cigarette and it was quite,quite delicious.

Saturday Supposed to hook up later tonight with Brody who's fleeing town tomorrow and heading for Europe.Her gig at Brixton Academy is not to be missed. The bill is so fucking HOT it's too crazy for words. The Distillers are headlining, with The Eagles of Death Metal kicking off proceedings only to be followed by the third member of what I like to call The New Triad. And her name, ladies and gentlemen? Standing alongside Miss Karen O and Miss Brody Dalle.....is the irrepressible,the incomparable,the irresistable slut of sex sleeze and dirty rock.....is Miss PEACHES herself!!!!!! Oh god......I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to be at that show.It's going to be: wipe-the-floor-time- crazy cool!
