Month: July 2003

gah

So that now makes two people whom I care lots about are mad at me.

I guess I should be able to explain myself better but I can’t, it’s just not me. If you don’t like it, it is my fault … maybe, but it’s your problem. I’m going to go ahead and not send a stupid email. I shall wait till Monday morning after I have given it some due consideration.

Fuck it all anyway. I really don’t care right now. Unfortunately that’s not true. If I didn’t care, it wouldn’t get to me.

– Looks like I’ll be spending some of the weekend helping Iain decorate in return for pizza and beer. I had nothing planned so that works I guess.

– I was playing some pool tonight and at some stage ended up holding Nick’s cigarette while he was taking a shot. I hate the fact that after last weekend I wasn’t just holding it, I started smoking it. I don’t have all that much willpower but I have enough fucking willpower not to take up smoking. My throat hurts already.

– How some people still have their job is beyond me.

– Trust and respect, well I’ve alot less of both this week.

– *sigh* I need a new computer quite badly.

– Sleeping late tomorrow, then reading for a while. Cinema at some stage over the weekend I guess. I have to look into a suit aswell and I should really talk to my parents. I spoke to my mom on IM for the first time in about 1 month today.

– It appears that AOL blogs are now very much out in the open and indeed it was Warren Ellis’ Die Puny Humans which told me this. So much for “over communicating”. Still I have to say I’m fucking excited by everything I’ve read about them and I shall be involved in testing at the least. See: Buzz Machine. Note to self, look into this more on Monday.

– R.E.M. really are one of the greatest bands of all time.

Last night was good fun. Headed into town and picked up a couple of trades. Went on up to Goodge street to meet up with the V and then sat there drinking for the night, kinda like this:

Taken on a camera phone hence the low quality and for those of you wondering my charming companion is a 1664.

Tonight is drinks with the V and some trade paperback picking up. I found out in previews a couple of days ago that two more Exiles trades are available and I want. There is a Daredevil I want too and perhaps some Last of the Independents which is getting some really good reviews.

Oh and I find it worth noting that not a single person asked me for my opinion yesterday.

Lets roll!

Congratulations Americans, you really have elected an idiot as president.
Speaking on Iraq, Bush said:

“There are some who feel like that the conditions are such that they can attack us there. My answer is bring them on,”

So he’s telling the people of an occupied country to bring it on. Jesus.

Vietnam anyone?

And for the record I see nothing wrong at all with any Iraqi’s attacking the UK or US forces. They are occupying their country, some things are black and white.

arrest this man, he talks in maths

Fuck it, fuck it all.

I need to make a Radiohead CD which has all their tracks on it so that I don’t have to be switching them around so I can go from Fake Plastic Trees to Karma Police.

For a minute there, I lost myself. Not just a lyric this time. I hadn’t intended on blogging about this at all but I was just having not so much an argument but a cold war with a friend and I got pissed off.

I think some things have changed too much and I don’t think I like that. Right now I don’t like it at all but of course the usual reaction is over-reaction.

I’ve had one of the shittiest days in a long time. I love it how people say “Trust me” a mere hour before they drop one of the worst possible things on you.

You remember that job I was going until about 18 months ago which I hated and made me miserable day in and day out?

Well I’ve just been seconded back to it for at least the next 4 weeks and I don’t even get to keep up on my job or my client. And no I wasn’t given a choice and yes this is because of others fuck ups and not mine.

It’s all one big joke.
