mhuzzell | 'I LOVE YOU'

...is chalked onto various surfaces around St Andrews right now. Presumably by someone who lives in the same part of town as me, since it's on Queen's Gardens, Louden's Close and Lade Braes, as well as in the centre of town. I find it oddly heartwarming.

It's the second time in three days that inanimate surfaces have claimed to love me. The other was in the toilets at the Forest cafe in Edinburgh, where the floor and walls express this sentiment alongside the request that they not be defaced with graffiti or urine. I love the toilets there. They are unisex, but unlike most unisex toilets, which are simply single rooms with everything in them, this is just like a normal women's room, with two stalls and a common sink area. The Forest in general is wonderful. A colourful little bohemian paradise in the middle of a big grey city. Okay, so it's hardly grey during the Festivals, but you know what I mean. It's alternative, man. I dig that.

I just got back from Edinburgh yesterday, having spent a sadly short few days in Adam's ~~flat~~ bohemian shelter for vagrant students. Saw some great stuff at the Fringe, but as I have two essays to do before 1 September, and an exam on the 4th, I shall have to wait until after then to describe them.

Speaking of which, I think I may need to ban myself from recreational internet for a while. So if you see me online before the 4th, please tell me to get the fuck back to work.

Later, dudes. Standing by.
