STUDIO DIARY #28 (November 24th - 30th, 2000)
Friday 24th
'Tis the day after Thanksgiving and we're stuffed to the brim with turkey and mashed potatoes yet further still we plan to go over to Steve's house again tonight and gorge ourselves on the leftovers! We're going to do the whole thing all over again! How do you like them apples?!?!?!?
Spoke to my mum yesterday who told me a certain scottish paper reprinted some extracts from my studio diary last weekend...........in particular,on the subject of self-cutting.Having not read the article myself I am not entirely sure of it's content but suffice to say..........regardless of what anyone might have read...........I certainly didn't speak out on the subject because I hoped our fans would follow in my footsteps!!!
Quite the opposite is infact the case.I spoke out because I feel it's important to help bring it to the fore so that anyone currently suffering from this syndrome doesn't feel it's something they should feel ashamed of and keep hidden away in the closet. It's vitally important that they feel comfortable enough and have the confidence to speak out and seek help.
Saturday 25th
I feel utterly disgusting.Stuffed to the gills and fit to burst straight out of my ill-fitting trousers!!!!! What a hideous way to end the week.Gorging like a pig and laying flat out on the floor,drinking without question whatever may be thrust into my greedy and grasping little hands!!!!!!! No more festivities for Shirley Ann.It's going to be disciplined days of dry bread and gruel from now on.
Sunday 26th
Day off
Monday 27th
Can it really be Monday already? Is my life going to be over before I realise it has truly begun in earnest?!?!?!?!
Kiddies take heed.One minute you're knitting pom pom necklaces and learning the alphabet and the next minute you're writing your will and worrying about paying your life insurance bills!!!!
Holy shit.What the hell happened?!?!?!?!?!?!
Seize the day my darklings.Live every minute as if it were your last. Live in the layers.Not in the litter.
Tuesday 28th
Did I mention my trip to NYC? I'm being disgustingly extravagant and taking a week off from the studio to meet up with my wee sister who's coming over from London. I cannot WAIT!!!!!!I'm so completely in the mood for some FUN and my wee sister is just the perfect kind of person to find fun with.
Butch got a call today from Smashing Pumpkins inviting us to come down to Chicago on Saturday night and see/hear them play their final show at the Metro.Obviously I won't be able to make it seeing as I am in NYC but I would have loved to go down.I'm sure it will be an extravaganza even if it will be such a melancholy one.
