I have to do this: I have to brag. If you’re going to share your life with someone, make it someone who absolutely rocks in…
I think Iāve finally reached critical cheese massā¦ I recently found myself inappropriately excited at the prospect of spending long, inhuman hours on the set of a Vampire movie being shot in Jozi, sweating and hammering and building and painting and pasting and wielding a nail gun and maybe a coffeepot for mahalaā¦ Yep, you heard right: not money, just experience, and because Iām crazy like that. Also, the idea of building and decorating coffins for the undead somehow doesnāt give me the heebie jeebiesā¦ Quite the contrary, actually.
Oh, and just to end off the evening with a favourite quote, courtesy of Neil Gaiman: āHave you ever been in love? Horrible isn’t it?…
Those are perhaps the most poignant words in any song written about love Iāve heard so farā¦ St Vincent and The Nationalās cover of Crooked Fingersā Sleep All Summer always leaves me missing people I havenāt even fallen in love with, trying to sing along despite the big lump in my throat.
Laughter. According to various sources, itās the best medicine, a shock absorber, the human raceās only effective weapon, a good judge of a manās character (depending on what he laughs at), a direct result of manās deep suffering and flowers (the way the Earth laughs, seeā¦).
Which is why Iām going to change my chosen career path. When I grow up, Iām going to be the guy that does the voiceovers for the marketing sequences on M-Netās Action Channel. No jokes.
