Tuesday September 4th 2018 - Day 2547 - "I prefer to thrust"
It has been three weeks since I last blogged, but it hasn't been through laziness, I have just had nothing to write about. I guess I could have written about my first ever cricket hundred; which coincidentally was scored at the cricket ground that Morrissey once said he wanted to play at with me, but none of my blog readers would have been interested in that..... unless of course Morrissey had happened to have been playing too, which funnily enough, he wasn't!
MORRISSEY BATTING AGAINST THE WEST INDIES IN 1963
The reason I have returned to blogging today is because Our Mozzer has posted a couple of tweets; the first at 2.54am Sunday morning (6.54pm Saturday LA time) and the other today at 1.53pm (5.53am LA time). Here they are:
Saturday 6.54pm: "And I dream of the things I'll do. With a subway token and a dollar tucked inside my shoe."
Tuesday 5.53am: "Some decide their fate and others have fate thrust upon them. I prefer to thrust."
The tweet from Saturday is a lyric from Rhinestone Cowboy, a song made famous by Glen Campbell - could it be a hint that Morrissey has recorded a Campbell song for his Covers LP? I'd lurve to hear Moz sing Wichita Lineman.
In other news, it has been reported that recording of the covers album has now concluded, and also the vinyl version of This Is Morrissey has been released; although I must confess that I haven't yet bought it. In fact, since I moved house three months ago, I haven't bought any records, or even turned-on my record player. I am ashamed to say, I have become a full-on streamer, and have lost interest in collecting records. I will eventually get around to buying a copy of This Is Morrissey when I next visit a record shop, but there aren't actually any record shops where I live, and even the HMV in Southampton has now closed. It really is a changing world.
