Tuesday

I've been a bit of a Cinderella today, cleaning the house in KEY areas, doing the washing up etc. And once again my plans to meet up with friends were foiled. But tomorrow I will be going to the newest cafe in town, a sleek, city-style venue called Elite which opened up last year. Now, I have reservations about it (who in their right mind calls a cafe Elite in a diverse town?), but the idea that the owners, or at least the namers, are pretentious people who don't get this town is one I have to come to terms with and challenge. So I shall. And with my fellow Coffee Conniseur, Sasha, we shall see how it stands in the scheme of things.

Today's blog entry shall be short, and is brought to you by the word blog. I apologise to my brother, who hates the word, but he'll get over it one day, I guess.

I have been following the new web series quarterlife, created by Marshall Herskovitz and Edward Zwick, the producers behind Blood Diamond and a couple of well-recieved tv shows. At first I thought I wouldn't like it - the show is about five twentysomethings and their creative, complex lives. But I do like it. The representations are true, the acting is good and the script is as well. And I like the way it moves between blog-style video and tv-style cinematography. So that is the latest in the world of the web.

And as short I said, short I'll stay (for today).
