SUPER FRIENDS Yesterday me and Keith high fived at exactly the same time as Paul B and Mickey high fived. This is incredible because a) Paul B can’t high five, b) it was not planned in anyway and c) somehow no one else saw. Keith says we are not super friends till we can all […]
RAINMAN The fringe is all ok now. Officially. I think Sunday needed to be bad so that we could enter the true spirit of going completely batshit crazy at being here for a whole month. It always happens at some point. Sometimes in week one, sometimes in week two, but whenever it does, its guaranteed […]
Well it had to go wrong at some point didn’t it? I mean surely the whole point of karma is if you are going to have several ace days in a row, it needs to come crashing down like a turd in the face with nails in it eventually doesn’t it? I will note, right […]
RUNNING I went for a run again this morning. This is mostly thanks to the fact that last night I actually slept. Yep. Really really slept. I drank no booze yesterday and then had a sleep. You may as well hit the reset button on my brain because I am brand spanking like new today. […]
PEAMAR BUTTMITE I decided about ten mins ago to eat a peanut butter and marmite sandwich. Its been recommended a few times and each time I’ve slammed down the thought whilst casting a look at the thought provider as if to say their mind is full of wrong. But then today, I’ve clearly embraced the […]
It doesn’t matter how many previews you’ve had, how well prepared you feel or how many Edinburghs you’ve done, that first fringe show is the most terrifying thing in the world ever. Except for maybe werewolves. So apart from werewolves, its definitely the worst. God forbid anyone that does a first fringe show with werewolves […]
I got to bed at 4am, I woke up at 9am. This is clearly some sort of hilarious farce being played by my body clock. I’ll be honestly with you blogees, I am less than happy about it. I’m not even happ. Or ha. Just annoyed. Its clear my internal time keeping machine is pissed […]
DOUIEB’S LOG WEDS AUGUST 4TH 2010: Tee hee, log. Tee hee hee. Ahem. Dear world, it is officially day one of the Fringe today, though my show doesn’t start till tomorrow because (delete as appropriate) a) I’m hella awesome and the Fringe waits for me, beeeyaaaatch, b) I’m in a venue that doesn’t start till […]
This is a danger blog. By that I mean the train wifi is being more up and down than a bipolar lift and has already ruined several attempts at email productivity. So chances are, it will go out of its way to ruin my blog too. This is by no means the worst beginning to […]
I am lying on my bed in a room that looks as though something bad has happened to it. I wouldn’t say it looks like its been hit by a bomb as that would be a huge lie. Nothing is burnt to a cinder. There is no blast damage. There is merely the detritus of […]
