So the mank of last week has lifted leaving a rather nice chesty cough with a variey of phlegm, mmmm nice.

Went to sign on, the conversation ran thus:

Me: 'Here are my ridiculous forms.'

Them: Processing.... 'So what have you done to find work since you finished university?'

Me: 'I have indeed found work and start at the beginning of September.'

Them: 'Congratulations, now...

Selectively filtering the parts that back up your arguments out of context?

Who does that remind me of?

I don't like the summer.

The sun hurts my eyes and I have to frown even when wearing shades.

I burn.

It becomes difficult to breathe.

Hayfever screws up my sinuses.

It becomes difficult to move without getting clammy.

I overheat and it messes with my patience.


I try to tell 'normal' people these things are what drive me indoors during what passes for summer...

Damn thats pretty much how I feel. I don't mind warm weather (except the hard to breathe bit when london atmosphere becomes cloying) but I can't stand bright sunshine. Overcast skies, drizzle and dull days where you don't get a smegging headache from the unacustomed glare are my thing. I was begining to think I was abnormal (no comments, oh ok go ahead I don't mind). The only reason I agreed to go to Rhodes in august with my mates was because I'm interested in history, especially byzantine and the crusades. Two bleedin weeks of brightness.
Hah.
Whilst I see your point about staying in Scotland cos of the goth girlies, I did'nt get the chance as my parents moved to London when I was a kid. I no longer mind as the women in camden area, hell loads of area's, are pretty impressive. Still, variety is the spice of life, I may have to visit Scotland again soon to check things out.

Tip of the day: Amuse your friends and incite nostalgic reminissing (sp) in the pub by getting some iron on velcro. Stick one side onto a t-shirt, the other onto some fuzzy felts (you might need to get an adult to help with the cutting out).

Voila - fuzzy felt t-shirts, I'd market them if I could be arsed.

Truth be told I'm really just...

I fear for my life...

I believe I have uncovered a fiendish plot to end my sorry life.

For my birthday some 'friends' bought me a unicycle.

There can be no other reason for this than to give me the means with which to kill myself.

Either that or they plan to sell me off to a circus.

If I suddenly stop updating this journal,...

Ta very much for the sympathy on the shaving thingie. Healed now though still sore, may give in to girlfriends wishes and grow a beard, even if its ginger. By the way, are you Glasgow born and bred? Curiosity only, I'm from Edinburgh and never got around to posting on your (I think it was your post) post on scots sg fans.

Me neither, some people claim to channel the works of Shakespear or great composers from the spirit world - I think I've got a direct link to a ramblin nutter...

Went to see Ron Athey's performance piece 'Joyce' last night.

Fucking hell! What a remarkable bit of art.

There's always something vaguely optimistic about Thursdays.

In a vain attempt to avoide the chuffing world cup I had an extreme music afternoon Sounds of Sadism, Controlled Bleeding, Melt Banana. This finally provided the spur for me to start converting my flat from the rancid stoodent pit of the last four years into a place that I can inhabit comfortably, sod that - I'll settle...

And suddenly its Wednesday!

One of my e-buds has been doing some work for a skateboard company and it looks like they take freelance designs for the boards. Methinks I'll send in some particularly nasty stuff in my 'derivative nasties' style. Its a bit like Bosch and Durer meets Lovecarft - oooh the gelatinous biological obscenity of it all...
gomiboy:
glad you like the site. i'll be updating it monthly with new stories and graphics. i might have to put up some kind of Adult Material warning, i've had a couple of notes about that...

Things to do with Absinthe and your head #2

Absinthe and Red Bull - nuff said

I have a friend that advocates adding Vodka.

I didn't have any Vodka.

I stuck in some Baileys.

I called the drink *Monkey Snot* 'cos that's what it looked like. It did funny things to my gums. The rest of the weekend was a bit of a blur.

I...

Oh, absinthe! The last time I was in London, I went to some basement absinthe bar with some friends -- after going to a pub, dinner, a house party... and before going to Ministry of Sound (blech). The absinthe hit me pretty hard. The sub-basement bathrooms seemed like a maze, and I was lucky that my friends were there to pour me onto the plane to fly back to the States. Advice: Never fly across an ocean hungover... especially on absinthe.
olivia:
but, how much absinthe should one have? i would very much like to try it, and have some here. dosage, anyone?

Pondscum (cos that's what it looks and smells like)

Snakebite & Black with a hefty dose of the Aforementioned Absinthe.

Tastes great.... kills braincells

Today I have decided to kidnap a Slipknot fan, stake them down and then try and summon something nasty on their chest to see just how sodding accurate those pentagrams on the t-shirts and hoodies really are.
maelwys:
Knowing Slipknot the symbols on their clothing could barely raise a gnats erection from the foul depths of Scunthorpe, but good luck and feel free to visit London as we've got hundreds of little Slipknot fans awaiting culling.
maelwys:
Well if you're visiting London, the Devonshire Arms in Camden is a good little pub. Friday nights are probably the best, plus its rare that anyone under 21 goes in there usually full of 25+

Hello world,

Mondo congrats to the delish O for a rather spanksome site indeed, and allowing me to sound more like a twat than I usually do in these profiles - hurrah!

As of the now, love puppies, I've just finished my honours year twiddling 'pooter bits in the name of multimedia and waiting to start work, slightly shell-shocked by the notion of 'free time'...
