Starved
saw a shark on the Barrier reef
have been inspected
very very miss my two dogs
missed my tax return
punched a teenager
got a taxi, but the weather was too good so I walked
cried at the Barbara Walker exhibition
kissed them
wasted a lot of money on an electrician
cried
didn’t care
picked up a kitten
went to Margate instead of Eastbourne
had a shag
Cried sitting downstairs on the bench with my headphones on
finished that email I’ve been putting off
slept enough
became an eagle scout
found true love
cooked my face
ran into a seesaw
rode in an aston martin DB4 until the owner had to go and have new tyres fitted to it – such regrets!
got a dog
forgot the dog
flew back to Australia
fostered an American Bulldog
didn’t say yes to what turned out to be the best weekend of my life
didn’t come back in
ran away
married the wrong person
missed the bus
did not come to the turner exhibition
got knocked out by a wooden plank but it missed
drowned on Brighton Beach
didn’t come tonight but glad I did
am blind
forgot to buy my train tickets
booked a holiday
spoke to Princess Diana at the Women of the Year launch
got the job
went to Paradise Park
didn’t come today thinking that maybe it wouldn’t be great but I’m glad I did! Nice to see artistic creations.
