Technically 38, no power cuts? Couldn't hide in the darkness I wore a sheer white button down shirt, pink jeans and the magpie teasing sandals By gum, the boobs and legs will LIVE this summer I practiced cat walking down the street with the beach wind in my hair and Right Said Fred in my earphones because I'm too sexy for Milan I'M TOO SEXY FOR MILAN, NEW YORK AND JAPAN, BY GUM Why is by gum stuck in my head I'm thinking of introducing this game to the mamas I want to corrupt and kidnap them They don't need much encouragement The kids football game that turned into an impromptu picnic/dance party reminded me I'm very silly and I can make my own fun It reminded me of uni Vladdy, Khaled, Sara, Fou, Amira and I were quite wild on the streets of Zamalek, Korba and downtown I was carried out of a bar Vladdy wore hot shorts and boots for Halloween because his costume was "A GAY MAN" (Vladdy is a gay man) Sara and Fou and their acting exercises/social experiments-- "let's pretend something fucked up is happening in that window up there" And then when they were satisfied with the crowd and people were organically making up their own stories we'd leave Khaled and I sang Britney Amira was just pure chaos and swore like a sailor in art galleries I was still silly after we all drifted apart, everybody travelled except me I was still silly and unafraid of strangers But Noha didn't like it, Noha the comedian Noha, the feminist The only reason she met me was because she had a crush on Ozzy back in his stand up days She told me later she intended to hate me but I made her laugh I think it was more like she realised Ozzy was from the country and I was the one who had access to certain places and people It's very hard not to be bitter about her, I trusted and loved her Maybe she's my recompense for what I put Sara through I ended up at the beach cafe today, sitting with K, her son Yuyu (Swedish chef) and Biso We played Ludo and a card game and the boys got way too excited K was eyeing the shishas lustfully Tante Z, Tante Rizzo and new neighbor grannies formed their own circle Z was really happy which made me happy The backgammon/tawla grandpas were at their own table playing a marathon! As I suspected, lead backgammon grandpa is incredibly charismatic He was in a Hawaiian shirt smoking a fat cigar. Here, this is an eccentric, foreign look for people his age. Everybody else wears ill-fitting Polo shirts, button downs, plain T-shirts, never anything patterned or with color. And of course people generally smoke cigarettes or shisha. It was an adorable scene Except for Duck lurking at a directly adjacent table She was talking to a young granny but staring at us the whole time Which doesn't feel ominous at all More goose pimples when Ozzy sent me a message which I ignored And K started talking about telescopes and cameras and the moon I asked her to stop being witchy (Ozzy made a telescopic video of the moon that I used to watch to help me sleep) She said not to judge signs Fine But I'm not texting him |
