    Well now,
    Another Friday is here and I see a depressing lack of activity in AH. Apart of that Trump/Hillary political steaming horse manure.

    Ah, go on, After Hours, give me your best. What are you up to, who are you going to sleep with, what you're drinking/smoking/sniffing tonight?

    Surely that's the uplifting thing. There's no activity in AH because they're all off drinking/smoking/sniffing each other

    Thought I'd be edified by news of another Mexican artist with a monobrow.

    Threads are letting me down left, right, and center today. :(

    I'm rather drunk, which is unusual. The moon looks lovely tonight, almost full. I thought this would be about the lovely unusual Frida too.

    I'm working later on tonight and I'm fierce bored. I do most of my work from home so it's not like I can go in early or something. I tried to initiate a few Whatsapp conversations a little earlier this evening, just for something to do, but they were having none of it. You'd think a video of a Middle Eastern man f*cking the front bumper of a car would be a conversation starter but it isn't. I guess there's not much to say after you've seen it.

    I actually thought to myself why is there a thread about Frida Kahlo in AH?

    This was released recently I think, nice.

    I just watched Spaceballs with the family, and I'm going to have a Baileys and browse the internet maybe with the Late Late in the background. That's what being old and boring does to you. I like it actually.

    Just ordered a pizza. Planning first weekend of nothing in ages and going to enjoy it alone except for the dog whose bed I have just dragged into my room. Kicking myself for finishing Narcos last night. Anything on Showbox worth binge watching? Have done all the usuals. Something foreign and crimey?

    I'll just rent whatever's available for the Route 66 jaunt. Thelma and Louise style.

    Starting to get the vibe now, yeah. Think I might just stir for that. At some stage.

    Trapped. It's a crime drama set in a teeny Icelandic village. It's very good. Or good old Wallander, the Swedish version.

    Am I alone in thinking Frida Kahlo's paintings are a bit shíte? They look like a cross between medieval stick figures and realism.

    On topic, having a few beers and heading over to a friends for some pictionary, and maybe a game of risk. If there's anything to be smoked or sniffed I'll not say no, but no plans as of yet.

    Oh no. I'm happy-ish in bed. Although I would like the sweet caress of a can of coke or the filling comfort of a pepperoni pizza.

    I agree. It's her I'm fascinated with. She was a very interesting woman I think. Her letters and poems are very beautiful. Let me see if a link will work.

    Who the hell mentioned Pringles ? Now I'm gonna want Pringles. Like, I want them already, but I'll want them more after the drinks.

    Going to have to make do with sweet microwave popcorn with salt and butter. Try it, it's nice.

    He brought it for himself and then I did him a favour so he gave me a couple of beers. The other was Okocim and it was better alright, this one is nothing special.

    In the video I linked to above, I can't help but feel a bit of uneasiness about her. Hard to put a finger on it, her words are touching and sincere, but it's like the body language is nearly ... sort of incestuous while it obviously isn't.

    Warka Strong is the way to go. Or Zywiec, but only the dark ones above 8%.

    Dad?

    Well it wasn't a joke per se, more like an observation I hadn't heard in all my 43 years.

    "My days were numbered the day i was born" says a shopkeeper to me on me buying a packet of cigarettes. The chap made my day. I smoked them 5 at a time.

    I didn't see her body language as being incestuous but I get what you mean about the uneasiness. She was a woman I think who struggled with who she was, as if she never really knew. Perhaps the unease you sensed was her own confusion about how to be. The body language of someone who was unsure about her place in the world and in Diego's life.
