You know when you wake up, and instantly you're in a good mood? This was one of those days. It was also one of those days where I didn't beat the rest of the house to the waking world,... Read More
What can be said about the great American sport that is NFL? Not a lot really. Its a fucking ridiculous game. That said, the Americans know how to do it well. There's so much going on that is not... Read More

Ohh! I so wish I was going, but I'm going to be in-transit to Perth!
I got a mention of things you are looking forward to? Awesome-sauce! I too am looking forward to coming to Perth. Especially my Saturday afternoon/night where I get to meet you! Squeee!
Who is Kelly? Weddings are such fun.
1. WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE FOOD?
Indian cuisine.
We can be friends now. Yup. For reals. Love Indian cuisine. Oddly enough, the best Indian I have ever eaten was in Christchurch, New Zealand.
So yeah, when I started writing this all was right with my world. It's a pleasant Saturday morning. Kinda crisp. In the shower I had the window open and saw three different species of birds nesting and feeing their young in my giant leopard tree in my backyard. All very cute and sweet.
My new couch (see replacement couch as the other one I got two weeks ago was slightly damaged) arrived and was wrapped in plastic. - Hmm, it still is. So much plastic to unwrap...
Then, it starts turning bad. Husband arrives over to sort some stuff out and tell me he spoke to his parents last night who, well, are meddling. Meddling isn't even the right word. I'm about to get completely fucked over. I'm kinda typing this and shaking. I don't know what to do.
And being the dumb-ass nice person that I am. I'm probably going to let it happen without much fight. I've never been able to say no to him.
I just want him to be happy. Which, is of course a conflict of interest. Sorry, I'm babbling.
Well, he is here and I better go and try and see what all of this talk means for my future.
Thanks for filling in the quiz! Bestest thing to wake up to and read!
Across the street from Kelly and Mick's apartment there is a shopping centre, based around a Safeway. Its impressive the amount of places you can buy beer from in the US, but this day was not about that. I'd set out of foot to have a... Read More
Nosey Parker! Haha! I haven't heard that expression in years! Stickybeak!
I like yours. I might try it out for a bit, and see if it works for me. Metric Fuckload just rolls so easily though.
Now, Zeromancer. Fave track thus far?
The list of bands you rattled off to me the other night on msn had me jumping up and down in my chair with excitement. Yeah, seriously.
Have you had a chance to listen to much of them yet? I forget if you got any Apoptygma Bezerk or not. If you didn't, let me help you out with a few selections, as they changed genre (like VNV and Covenant) from EBM to Future Pop. Making it a blurry and confusing group to like if you aren't into electronic stuff minus guitar.
Blah, blah, blah. I love this shit.
As for the:
So the lyrics... is what comes next just as important?
Well, I'm not sure if you mean the lyrics that follow in the song. If that's what you meant, then yeah - they are important. 'Cause all good things end. Eventually. Time and distance will tear everyone apart.
But the song for me is about the point at 2min30sec - Turn it on and close your eyes. Can you see pictures flashing up like a fast paced montage of your life? It's this that gets me every time.
But right now, I'm trying not to think of that and just want to remind myself that in a few days, I will feel so much better...
Until we all are grown apart
We live our lives the way we want
Until we all are torn apart
Erotic Saints - Zeromancer
But really, there are Zeromancer lyrics for nearly every occasion.
Oh! Be sure to tell me what you think about Blood Music.
I love a good bruise, the dull ache of poking them is so oddly satisfying, and I love a good bruise story. Unfortunately I have legs covered in them and no stories to go with. I can only assume I've been bumping into things at work. Who knows?
Monday the 6th to be precise. Sometime in the evening, i packed my bags and left. This is the tale of the journey, and subsequent return.
Day 1 - The 42 Hour Day
I've written about this day before. There's not a whole lot you can say about a 42 hour day filled with airports and... Read More
I decided on the final track choce this morning and put the mix tape together earlier tonight.
I went with 'I Believe You' and 'Afraid this Time'.
Mixed it up with some EBM and Future pop for good measure. It's an interesting tape (cd). Completely not what I had in mind when I started making it, but it took on a life of it's own eventually.
So, we're destined to meet n' stuff? Tell me more of this Little Creatures place? I've heard on the grapevine that you're a fan of it.
I'm a fan of Sunsets and venues where I can actually hear the company I am with. Although, this is a risky move as it means conversation is required.
We have like 5 weeks to work out a strategy for conversation. 'Cause really... I'll just lose all my words and stare at you like a mullet. A stunned mullet.
Then you'll think I'm strange. Or stranger than you do currently.
I really have to stop typing the same way that I talk. However, I'm running on near to no sleep. I haven't slept really since the nightmare the other night and today was a really big day. Like huge.
I think you should tell me more about yourself. What you do for work and a random fact should do for starters. That would be interesting.
*Note: Due to my immense fear of heights this may change upon seeing it and looking up.
Another long post, but you said you like them. You're going to regret that quickly. I can babble forever.
And thus it is time for all sinners to repent! Well, not really. The end however, is nigh, the end of my holiday. San Francisco has been a lot of fun, and some needed resting as well. Of course that's all going to hell once I step on the place tonight. I can pretty safely say I hate airports, and I'm... Read More
Is day twelve of the San Francisco adventure, and all is calm (like a bomb). I've been sitting around most of the morning listening to the (guerrilla) radio with a certain sense of freedom that being on holidays allows. I've met a few people (of the sun) and seen a few things which has helped me to wake up to all... Read More
Does anyone remember that Berocca ad? The one where the two middle aged ladies fly with the sun to spend thirty minutes in about five cities over thirty hours on the same day. Big fucking waste of time. But this brings me to Tuesday. My Tuesday.
Unlike Your Tuesday, My Tuesday was a little bit different. My Tuesday started... Read More
1. It's raining.
2. I hate packing. There's too many decisions involved, such as "should I put this on the bottom or not?"
3. I have no number 3 currently but i'm sure it will come.
T minus 6 hours and counting...
1. Its no longer raining
2. Packing is seriously fucked.
3. I really have a lot of... Read More
As I sit here and procrastinate before soccer, I think that I might be falling into an addiction of Facebook. I've found so many old faces that I've lost and not spoken to over the years for whatever reason. All the good folks too, which makes me wonder why I has been so long. Maybe I acted like a retard over the past few years.... Read More
Dare I say that The Butterfly Effect are the best live Australian band at the moment?
I dare, and that's just the end. The beginning was sometime around 10pm when Clint and the boys stepped on to the stage amidst the sounds of America, FUCK YEAH! and then slipping right into Slow Descent. And that pretty much did it for me. From there is... Read More
I was going to, but the combination of please and kindly is redundant and as such I have to take your head. No hard feelings (or, for headless you, feelings of any kind!)
Do not grok.
