not even going to try to make this one comprehensible...

"it is not the beginning of the end, but rather the end of the beginning" - this has been going 'round in my head today. i think i'm having some sort of gen-y-mid-youth crisis

^^in my head that quote's being spoken by winston churchill. it's going to turn out to be from Spaceballs or something,...

Hello you!
Thought I'd pop by and see how you're doing. I think I'm borrowing your mid-youth crisis.... I just turned twenty-five and since then everything's kinda been heading south for the winter. There's that thing in Fight Club, I think, about being able to just let things "slide", and dammit, I'm good at that.
The LIfe Aquatic looks amazing, and the trailer has me hooked, not least for the really old New Order song they use.... But I love Bill Murray, everything about the guy, the sheer Bill Murrayness of him. I need to go and see that soon.
I used to want to be Jaques Cousteau, but I never learned how to swim.
The tragedy and the pathos of all those wasted years!
Did you go to the SG Scotland meet in the end?
And you should come through to Edinburgh anyway, it's a pretty okay place if you catch it in the right mood. Which is why I spend so much time in Glasgow.....
lots of love

well, quite enough of that glumfuckery, eh?

feeling more positive this week, thank bollocks. thought i was going to end up without a home in the next couple of weeks, but that crisis has been averted. has made everything else seem brighter.

VD always makes me perversely cheerful, although I have, in my life, sent one* card and recieved none. Maybe it's relief that I...

Perspective

Is a lie. i'll be sitting on the train back from hospital (where my alcoholic mother has put herself for the second glorious time since new year) and trying to keep my thoughts on serious, necesssary considerations: what are they testing her for? what will i do if she needs full-time care now? where am i going to get the fucking money? how am...

The holidays (as we now seem to be calling them) were a bit of a mixed bag. christmas was the usual round of kitchen work and arguments punctuated by Eastenders. Hogmany was lovely. Saw Sons and Daughters playing a club in Glasgow. They were fantastic, with the best frontwoman I've seem since the glorious PJ. I bow before her.

There followed family trouble. I can...

christmas shopping done: none

hours spent in the damn office on a saturday: four

NB: becoming tangentially involved in proper show!business! always sounds a lot more exciting than it actually is.

still, saw interpol last night and they were, in the truest sense of the word, *awesome*.
there's something about the arrangement of the vocalist quite still, whilst the guitarist and bassist move either side...

Actually, you're not in. I don't think I can add you without you requesting to get in.
It's silly, but it seems you need to ask to be let in.

Edited to say - I aplologise for double posting. It's inexcusable.

I prescribed myself The Ship instead, solved the problem of Uxbridge much better that way, I doubt beer would have helped much smile

Fat man in glitter and pod people? Ah! An alcohol fueled vision, very scary, were you on absinthe?

I can't really remember 1998, I was pissed a lot. I was probably in Rockscene at the Astoria and the Intrepid Fox most weekends around that time.

Symphony of Disorganisation sounds like a Megadeth track biggrin

My weekend was quiet and peacefull, consisting of Caol Ila, pizza, Blood Omen:Legacy of Kain and both Shrek films. I was saving the pubbing for this weekend, unfortunately in Uxbridge but if I get drunk enough I can sort of block that out smile

i've spent too much time reading and left none to update the journal again. i was going to write something chin-strokey on relationships, but i'll have to boil it down if i'm going to get any tea tonight:

I've always thought that Americans have dating and the British just have alcohol. We get pished, end up randomly snogging/shagging/whatever floats your boat-ing someone, then either a)...

The energy has lasted pretty well so far, sods law I'll be knackered at the weekend instead.

1st/ 2nd/ 3rd what? This is a language I don't understand! I think that the traditional British way is better, there's enough neurosis and stress here without adding the dating bollocks into the equation. Still, I can think up a number of ways to annoy people who do following the dating shite. Hmmm, that could be fun. Pity all my mates just go out, get twatted and shag, otherwise I could test on them.
alio:
the dateing thing is way to hard, i tried it once, there used to be a girl that worked a store out side of my workplace, i liked her i asked her out, we went on a date, found it really hard to think on anything to say to each other after the "i saw you and thought you looked nice figured id ask you out" part, went our seporate ways and never saw each other again,

the getting pissed way is so much easyer but you got the beer goggles to contend with then

personaly i have had no luck useing eather method -sighs-

Hugs
