That is pretty much what I dreamed for when I was younger, except my Mum would hide small objects and I'd find them. Thats about as close as got. I would love to have that apartment now too, It would be so much fun.

7am - 8.39am
Today I have;
-Woken up from a dream (I was in wales, buying a puppy, being late for work and therefore taking the puppy across a field where i saw a german fighter plane, then was on the phone to a friend, and then got trampled by a horse)
- Realised said wakening happened an hour late
- Rushed into shower
- Made amazing cock up of all normal routine.
- Amazingly left house at 7.25am, right on time!
- Posted letters and realised they will not leave said post box until well after i finish work
- Arrived at work to find hilarious email (horrid work lady who corrected a near perfect email of myself had put the date as 2007 instead of the correct 2009 renewal date) of which i revelled in pointing out said mistakes.
- Online visitations of: Guardian, New York Times, BBC, Digital Spy and Perez Hilton
- Researched cheap ways to get to London next Saturday to see British Sea Power (Its not easy)
And that is about it. One hour thirty nine minutes, not bad.

Dan Colen and Nate Lowman’s recent collaboration
This recent(ly read) article caught my eye. I was ready to jump at the negative article with enough enthusiasm to make the waterlillies appear contemporary. Although, instantly, I feel I've seen the exhibit before. Has the junk car filled with more junk surrounded with even more junk not already been done? What is Colen and Lowman telling us? We already know we are a wasted society built on waste driving waste-buckets. Do we need telling again?
Its like a revival of dungerees, nobody wants to see it, and only the losers truely embrace it. I'm not best pleased about these scrappy sculptures that seem to mimick a 90s trend that wore out quicker than you can say junkyard.
There is a small salvation in this exhibit, a small painting entitled "Sarah Morris (Brice Marden) or Bill Clinton," is a small graphic painting in a lime that is hearterly refreshing in an otherwise drab space. Its gorgeous text is easy to like and its sherbert graphics hint at something that is entirely missed at the rest of the show.
Shame.
