t’s not always hard to analyse one’s dreams. So for some reason in my dream last night I didn’t have anywhere to live, so I moved everything I owned out of my flat and into the middle of a park. In the park I arranged everything exactly as it had been in my room in my flat. And I lived there successfully for a few weeks. But one day I came home and half of my stuff was gone – and a man was carrying my belongings towards a van parked in a nearby street. And I ran to him and begged him not to take my stuff, and scrabbled for the bare necessities that I would need to get along with. I kept trying to persuade him that he couldn’t take it all away…

Ok, by now there aren’t that many regular readers of plasticbag.org who don’t know that I’ve got a bit of a fetish for Buffy the Vampire Slayer. And of course, being English I have to deal with the horror that a lot of other people around the world are going to see what happens to her before I am. I don’t consciously true to avoid having it spoiled for me, but I am aware that it only gets me more and more frustrated.

So can someone tell me, is it true? I’ve just read an article about Buffy that has come through on the newsfeed I use for The Celeb Network – and it’s claiming that people have been shocked by the state of her at the beginning of the series. Here’s a quote: “But American fans were left distraught when the episode aired in the States recently, thanks to shots of their heroine rotting in the earth. One fan says, ‘The shot of her decomposed body was pretty sick.'”

In bleeding edge news, Kylie Minogue keeps Michael Jackson from the No #1 spot in the UK. I never thought I’d be saying that. Nor did I think I’d be saying that when she’d been number one for three weeks already. Nor did I think I’d say that the Kylie single is an unbelievably good little pop song that I literally can’t bloody stop humming…

Yesterday and last night I was mostly writing the gay section for Time Out‘s London Guide. And I was also mostly not getting enough done. Despite Davo‘s help. I’m a bad man.

Now this could be seriously cool – an AIM BloggerBot.
