Music? The lyric for The Future ... ??? Well, I wrote the first verse last night, and the pre-chorus. I already had the chorus. I need two more verses. 'Yippee! Well done, Mikey! Are you going to scrap this song too?' Shut up, idiot!
No, I'm not going to scrap it. The Future will be as good as I said it would be. And I'm keeping the lyric simple and cool. No fucked-up poetics. Do you know what I mean?
Fitness? I watched another one of those experts on YouTube yesterday. 'FFS.' Apparently, it will be a mistake to stop eating and lose a stone too quickly because I'll probably lose muscle as well as fat. So ... I'm going to cut my calories just a little bit while walking more. I mean, you need cardio. / Also, I'm only doing the dumbbells twice a week now. That gives my body more time to recover and actually helps build muscle.
More ... Cardio? I walked to Richmond and back yesterday. Ten miles. I burned off a thousand calories - I reckon - BUT(!) ... my lunch in Richmond only had nine hundred calories. You see how this works?
More ... Walking? I walked to Kew Bridge (and back, obviously) on Sunday. Just for a change, I went over to the "Ringo" side of the river, and it's much quieter there. More peaceful. 'What's the "Ringo" side of the river?!' Unbelievable! Voice, the "Ringo" side of the river is where Ringo Starr walked in the film A Hard Day's Night when he wanted to get away from the lads. A bit of time to himself, you know? 'Yeah, I remember.'
Uh.
Anyway ...
It's all going to plan, kooks! There's no need for you to worry about a thing.
Laters!
'What about the PR email?'
Oh shit! I forgot!
'Ha, ha, ha!'

FFS. My brain.
Er ... yeah, sorry about that, Clara, Jolt. I'm in a mad rush this morning. I've got to write a conceptual. 'No. 1,011! He gets a-ROUND!' Yeah, yeah. They don't need to know that, Voice.
Bye.
