A Penny for Your Thoughts, A Dime for Your Dreams

I had no idea how bad things were for America until last night, when I watched this terrifying documentary on BBC2: This World: American Time Bomb. I have my first new year resolution for 2009: pay off my credit card by the end of this month and start a hardcore savings account that I'll never dip into. It's ridiculous that I'm in my early 30s and I've got nothing saved.

Kevin and I went for coffee this past Sunday at Elbows cafe, a comfy little place north of Victoria Park. While I read an interview with Seamus Heaney in the Guardian Review, Kevin pulled out his sketchbook and did a drawing:



He's friends with a collective of artists based in Stoke Newington who have put together a blog dedicated to sketches and drawings: sketchbookblog.

It's very Posy Simmonds in style. VG 10/10.

What's VG 10/10?!

It's how some teachers used to mark things. The 10/10 speaks for itself, the VG stands for "very good".

What one always wished to avoid was "2/10. See me."
