Of late, I have had a fairly crazy life. I’ve swapped university/courses, taught a couple of days a week and have a stage show (with a cast of 10-15 year olds) opening tomorrow. For those of you who know me personally, I am relatively wacky as it is, but lately I have definitely knocked it up another notch. Hence, be prepared for a snapshot of a mind plagued with 50 voices of singing teens angstily belting out Highschool Musical.
1. I keep seeing my neighbour in his yard wearing nothing but underwear and watering his plants. The rest of my family insists that they have never seen it, and that it is a weird hallucination/dream brought on by about 7 coffees a day.
2. This morning I opened my wardrobe only to have the Protoss voice from StarCraft announce “Not enough Cardigans! Mine more Cardigans!”
3. I referred to a male student as “Mary Beth”.
4. I have randomly started “dance walking” at about 130bpm everywhere. The fact I know the bpm is more scary than trying to imagine what “dance walking” entails.
5. I regularly have begun attempting to skank whilst driving.
6. A combination of Regina Spektor’s 20 Years of Snow and PJ Harvey’s Mansize Sextet have been pretty much on repeat. I feel like I should put on Clockwork Orange makeup.
7. After being scolded for poorly constructing a piece of Ikea furniture, I apologised for not being a late 18th century French orphan, scratching together a living from his carpentry, all the while putting aside money for the revolution.
8. I refered, for a full day, to one of my friends (who has long wavy hair) as “Charlemagne”, and then apologised at 4:30am whilst drunkenly running around a playground, because I meant to call him Louis XIII of France, and then proceeded to call him his “full name” for the rest of the night.
9. I joined a book club.
10. I know all of Chad’s lines from Highschool Musical, and yet no-one elses.
11. I ended a conversation with my father by saying “AND THE NAME’S DAN, DAD, NOT BOLTON!” I then apologised.
12. The last point was in a dream, but I wish it was real.
13. I had a dream about this (thanks, Paul Verhoeven).
14. I am still writing, even though I should be doing something pertinent/relevant.

Then I continue my day in a similar fashion as my brain comments on the school in a style not unlike JD.
Verhoeven is having to much of an impact on you.
Now to fill my body with the dirty taste of LA Ice.
