Please direct your feet to the sunny sunny side of the street

The sun in shining, I am off to Central Park in a bit to stroll around and soak it all up, read, write, etc.

Also have to do grocery shopping today which makes me sad:( Hmm maybe I just won't bother...I need to squeeze my money becuase there is a concert in aid of Tibet on March 3rd featuring The Flaming Lips, The Roots and PATTI SMITH among others, and we are all going. So how long is that? 23 days. 23 days of not eating anything except cereal...yeah I can do that for those bands.

I think I'm going to tap tonight...only I'm not sure. Again, budget related - because I can only afford so many classes a week, I have to be super selective about which ones they are. And this one, while I'm sure I would enjoy it and Ray Hesselink is great, could turn out to be a class wasted. I think this because I've watched it before while waiting for other classes, and it's always packed out, in a quite small studio and the ability range is vast. I don't want to be big-headed about it at all, its not like 'oh these people are not good enough I cannot share a class with them' more like 'I'd rather be with people who are all better than me so I have to really step up'. Siiiiigh, if only their classes weren't so goddamn expensive. Charles who I live with is taking the ISVP course for 6 months, as I originally wanted to do...god knows how, he must have been saving since he was about 4 years old.

I went to visit Marisa yesterday and she v. kindly offered to keep an ear and eye out for anyone she knows who could give me a job for a bit of cash. She also gave me several mini bottles of gin, samples that she gets sent to her restauraunt. She also said that I can come by the restauraunt for lunch whenever I'm hungry as she's always there, and to call her if I need any help or if I get in trouble. Ahhh, so nice! Esp. the lunch bit - yes pleeeease! Sweet gourmet lunch for free every now and then, I'll take it.

Hmmm I can feel myself hitting a money-related mood slump - this is not good, and people either aren't home or aren't awake to prevent it. There is only one course of action here - hop on the train for Central Park, and take my tap shoes in case I decide to go to class in the end. (Or, go wake up Joe and make him entertain me, but I don't think he's wakeable just yet (it's 3.20pm)).
