I can lounge around in my Superman pants all day listening to good music and watching cartoons, maybe smoke a fag and then go and see some good bands in the evening.
I can turn my flat into a recording studio and drill through stainless steel and my neighbours won't bother me about it because they all think I'm slightly scary.
I can invite a bunch of near strangers round to stay for a whole weekend in which all my neighbours can hear is raised Japanese voices, dramatic over-scoring followed by subdued introspective conversation and soft weeping.
I can eat a good plate of full English breakfast every morning and no one is there to tell me that it probably isn't a good idea.
I have complete control of the telly, refuse to pay a TV license (because TV is, well, a bit rubbish isn't it) and don't have to endure endless reality TV, soaps, cookery programs and home improvement shows. Seriously, TV is crap innit. Just called the licensing people but didn't have the heart to tell them.
I can have a job that totally destroys my body clock, so that some days I'm still up in time to see the dawn before turning in and others I'm up to catch it before it starts. Dawn is the best time of the day.
I can drive to the New Forest on a whim to take a stroll under the full moon without anyone worrying where I am.
In short I can do what I want whenever I want without anyone to tell me otherwise. And bizarrely I still choose to keep the place clean and tidy. |
