Having staggered half a mile across Central London carrying my brand spanking new rowing machine I have finally made it home with the bloody thing.
OK, I wimped out and got a cab.
Now I just have to assemble it.
The words "Made in China" stamped on the outside of the box do not give me any confidence that the assembly instructions will be anywhere...

Oh just a bit 
Well, thanks to Suicidedoggie for encouraging me to dust off my winamp playlist this morning.
I havent listened to any music on a serious level for a couple of weeks. Music affects me like no other form of artistic expression. It has the ability to break through the walls I put up around myself when I feel hurt or vulnerable. If poetry is a slingshot...

Have you got it to work?

suicidedoggie:
Yup, random is right. Most of the time it doesn't update at all. I am told that the coming months will see magical improvements to the whole thing...
Yesterday I discovered Akira Yamaoka. I think I was listening to the SG group or maybe one of the member's channels.

That can lead to a very negative train of thought. Perhaps tomorrow's will be less dismal.
I booked Friday and I delivered my stuff today and met an objective(!) so there's hope.

Just got a phone call from my mum.
My Auntie Sue died yesterday.
She's been terminally ill for a while so it was no great surprise.
I've always had a very fatalistic approach to death, even within my own family. For me death is as much a part of life as living is and I'm comfortable with the knowledge that those people I love and...

Sorry about your aunt but I guess we all gotta go sometime.
Hope you're having an ok week, with any luck it'll be nice and sunny at the weekend. Two weeks isn't long to wait to get your lip done so hang in there
take care

im sorry babe 
I NEED to buy James Blunt's new album. It popped up on my Amazon recommendations list, had a few good reviews so I *cough* downloaded *cough* one of the tracks, "Goodbye My Lover".
Such an amazing voice and such great lyrics. It's tempting to download the whole album but I believe in paying artists for moving me so I shall be heading to the record...

I dont know know about the Bluntster actually (note to self: must stop doing that). How about you buy the new Turin Brakes album and I get to copy it?

Actually, sounds delish!

I had plans to get my lip pierced today but with a fairly big client meeting coming in two weeks I decided to postpone until after the event. There's no way I could get away with it and I dont want to have to take the bar out so soon and risk fucking up the piercing.

My email is on the fritz tonight.
Good job MSN is working otherwise my social life (which is 99% internet and 1% reality at the moment) would be totally shagged.
I'm 31 years old and my life revolves around my internet connection. Not that I dont enjoy the girly chats with Missshelley or the bile laced insult fest that is SGUK right now, but what...

So i couldnt find the place you recommended. It seemed that there were three to choose from. 'eeney meany...' The one we chose was OK, and had lots of chinese folk in it. But maybe, just maybe if I find the 'right' one it would be even better. What colour is the Chinese you recommended?
sorry to hear your email is not working well. I have fixed out many folks email issues, but I have never, ever heard of it being 'on the fritz'. The more I think about this, the more it makes me laugh. I get pictures of systems administrators drinking lambrini in the afternoon....

But you still haven't given me clear directions to the Chinese? Are you worried that it actually wasn't that good? ; )

I have booked the rest of the week off work. I knew I needed a bit of down time when I couldnt keep my eyes open on the walk to the office this morning let alone when I got there.
I like to be able to enjoy my time in the office. Having a job you don't like is the worst thing in the world....

Watergate's Deepthroat Revealed
The identity of Deepthroat has fascinated me ever since I read "All the President's Men" but finding out has not been as exciting as I had imagined it would be.

You really like all this stuff don`t you. Factual.
Its a good way to be but this stuff bores me. I know the real world is so much more complex than fiction but I do prefer it. I am coming round though.
What was the last fiction thing you read?
