Disco

Work and a big swim were more exhausting than usual. The black and white maskes the reddened face, the goggle marks, the general fatigue and slightly battered-looking face considerably. The sniffle that's been simmering for a couple of weeks isn't really helping general energy levels. Easy weekend with litle physical exertion beckons.

Been listening to a couple of remixes of a forthcoming single quite a bit today as I wandered aound on my travels in the neighbourhood. It's a single that already seems to have attracted a bit of a backlash before it's even out. Apparently it's not alright these days to be an image-conscious, dare I say it, possibly manufactured pop star.

Anyway, there's a dubstep-ish one and a full-on disco-strings one that simple screams "POPPPPPPPPP !!!!" at the top of it's lungs. I like 'em both, didn't think I would but there you go. Each to his own.

[Note: There was a recent comment that made me chuckle, the commenter imagining me living in my goggles all the time. I can, howeve, verify that this portait was taken directly after swimming and it's not just me wearing my goggles around the house. That doesn't happen. Well, not during the week anyway.]
