Hey hey. Took the Saffa to Brighton for an interview for BIMM. He got his place hurrah!

We also went to the downs where we had fun with panoramic pictures.

Going out for dinner tonite. The Cricket dinner. Larks yo.

that's it

So many thoughts..

So tricky to capture them all..

Ah well. We let the thoughts escape that will and we ensare those that we can.

It's been a very swift week. So swift that I've in fact barely noticed that I haven't blogged. I should, however, inform posterity that the Mothership has this very week departed to become MotherVic.

Also worthy of mention this week (although not quite as worthy):

- Jack's International Open Mic Nite tonite. Yes, it acquired international status since we last discussed it.
- There were some philosophical thoughts pertaining to something or other, but they've been dropped in favour of 'not bother with it don't you know'
- mmmhmm
- somethingsomething
- dreaming a lot this week. I'm sure psychoanalysts could feed that into their probability matrix and work out what I'll be doing for the forseeable future
- it's been far too long since I watched twelve monkies

That all said, it's becoming quite clear that the real reason I came on here has clearly eluded me and therefore I should go before I make a bigger fool out of myself than I already have.

Maybe a day in pictures tomorrow?

I'm not promising anything though because.. well.. you know..

New game!

We kill us. With laughter I mean.

Hoo hoo

On the money. Projectors rule!

Ooo. It's close. Let me try again.

Hi.

This has not been a busy week. So don't ask.

Today will be the third annual Lord of the Rings Day where we get together, watch all the films back to back (11 hours) and get laughed at by the non-geek demographic. A happy time for all involved. To further add to the geek-ness of the occasion, it is (by coincidence) Bilbo and Frodo's birthday today.

You can expect the usual.

the week ends

the week begins.

She thinks..


Some things:

- scored 19 today in The Crick™. A personal best.
- finished Scrubs 5. A good series
- watched Click. Not bad
- played an ok show. Star Chamber were off the chain
- time is a short commodity.

K I'm gone.

statistics, dreaming and the like

Hi there faithful real-worlders. (funnily enough, as I typed that I was listening to In Your Eyes by Peter Gabriel, and as we all know, his record label is.. that's right little timmy, Real World. How bizzarely inconsequential).

I hope you're enjoying yourselfs. I know I am. I'm on a break from work you see.

I was thinking it would be interesting to see some statistics about my blogging in order to further analyse myself. Specifically I have a hunch that I generally tend to post more towards the year's close. But I could be wrong. The closing in of the days, the bright but chill days in autumn, the sitting drinking hot drinks watching the poor weather in the lowlight: these cause me to be wistful and slightly melancholic in a good way. And, god forbid, this makes me feel 'artistic' which makes me want to write more. Probably.

I've been thinking about dreaming again. It truly is a weird state of affairs. Particularly the location aspect of dreams. You see I often dream about places that I know and I know in my dream that it is said place. But it bears little or no resemblance or likeness to the actual place. But yet I dream it the same in different dreams over long periods of time. Why? Why does my brain rearrange locations? I think I would understand if it rearranged them randomly each time. Or at least it would trouble me less.

Now, I'd better get back to work so I'm going to head, but so you know (and I know you want to), yes, David Ford was fantastic last nite. There were some odd people in the crowd but we didn't let it spoil the moment.

Oh my

We're practically on him

on the money

you see the thing is that I'm not sure what to write right now. Right write now?

But the other thing is that I'm being put to shame by Nonick Dave and the Saffa. Perhaps I should spend more time comparing myself to Mothervic or Boy Crossroads. That bears a little more comparison.

And I do still have the weight of ages behind me. Coming up to 3 years in October. That's mad good!

I will stop cooking the saucepan (as they say*) now and move on.

Tomorrow we are going to see David Ford. I think I have mentioned him. We're hooking up with Mr Ashton once down there as well.. Nice.

Tonite we were watching Scrubs again. Series 5 is getting better and better. Watched the new Charlie and the Chocolate Factory over the weekend as well. Stoopid Hollywood ending aside it was a delight. Gotta love the Deppstah! Having said that, you can never replace the Gene Wilder Wonka. Although I think now you can't replace the Johnny Depp Wonka. So there's some contradictin' for you. I'm ok with it though, generally speaking.

Moving on to something else, I've been back at school for just over a week now and it feels like it's been about a year. Not because work is that hard or stressful (how taxing can it be to make one piece of paper into 2 pieces - or 60 indeed), but because I don't know why because. (that sentence sounded tortuous on purpose - honest).

Similar thing with Greenbelt. We played at Greenbelt only 2 weeks ago and yet it feels like so long ago. You would think this would make me feel damn old, but I feel so young. Or at least I feel so green. That is, not young in a "young and carefree" cliched way. You know.

Gots to go though. Bed it beckons to me.

* they being me. But it will catch on.

The wall

Sometimes you wish you wouldn't half overhear conversations in bars.

There's not anyone here with whom I can converse and therefore block out the guy who's spouting off as I write this. The only slight problem is that he's just out of range for full clarity. The state of my ears being what it is I can't quite confirm that he is the bigoted fascist I'm taking him for. There's a lesson there somewhere.

Still, it could have been one of those conversations where you swear they're talking about you but you just missed the crucial part. Those suck. What's that? You never had that? Sucks to be me eh?

Progress and innovation

These days it's ever so easy to tell when a one is cold enough to drink. Thanks to the tireless efforts and research by Carling we have this coldness indicator. But gather round oh grandchildren of mine and I will tell you of 'the olden days'. You see in 'the olden days' we had a more archaic way of testing the temperature of our ones. We used an ancient tool known as 'hand'. It was a simpler time.

Scrubs is the watchword of the day. Series 5 to be precizzle. Which I think is an improvement on Series 4.

Back at work now by the way. I can't remember if I mentioned that I now get 6 weeks (ish) off in the summer. Ha. But I'm back at work now. Although mr photocopier decided to breakdown somewhat. Gotta love them machines.

Machines is where it's at.

Anyway. If I carry on like this then I may well have to rewind and you don't know what that kind of behaviour will do to these girls.

So without further ado I must bid you adieu.

Just came up with that.

In case you were wondering

Yes. I do have an obsession with fire pics as well as sunset ones. But I have it under control. I really think I do you guys.

new feature Friday!

That's your other Friday. Your Sunday flavoured one.

Anywhich, moving aside. If you have a nifty little check on the sidebar (under the title 'out there') you'll find a new and updated blogroll. Is your blog on there? Yes? No? It now give you the top 10 blogs in order of who updated most recently.

Holy added incentive Batman!

It's not working perfectly just yet as it appears that it needs some blogs to be updated before it registers in the correct order. But you know how to solve that? Update your blog. If it still doesn't appear then I might have forgotten to add it to my list. So let me know.

I'm so bored of typing now that you don't get anything more.
