My mind is all over the place today. I could blame it on not feeling so well but I don’t think that’s it. I don’t know what it is tho.
Lets see:
– There are two people that I dread ending up like. I’m fairly sure I won’t but the idea scares me.
– Sometimes I do wonder about brutal honesty, would it make things easier? Would it even change anything? Is it worth it? Does anything need changing?
– Veronica Mars is fun. It’s not as good as it’s talked up but it’s quite witty and amusing and I like that.
– Today, the music has been the 22/20s. Good stuff, better live.
– I did the washing up, I did some washing and I cleaned up around my computer. I feel like I accomplished a lot and yet I did not.
– Episodes IV, V and VI are excellent. VI is under-rated. I did rewatch them over the weekend and enjoyed the hell out of them.
– I struggle to imagine being with someone for years, nevermind decades. Photos of my grandparents getting married in 1942 hit me, that’s such a long time. Also, they looked good, really good.
– Sometimes I do wish I was closer to my family, most of them are good people.
– I need to take more photos, I need to make an effort.
– Karaoke, I dread the very word but it may be unavoidable.
– This week gets stressey planning wise. I need to sort out lots and lots of things. Scotland and Dublin to start with. I may have to drop Edinburgh, I don’t know if I have the time.
– I need more space. If I had somewhere to put my crap, I’d do so much better. I really just need to buy shelves and more shelves.
– I really should get around to dumping some comics on eBay.
– I can’t find my copy of Pete Milligan’s Enigma, I think I may have lent it to someone, although I should ask my flatmate. I want to re-read it quite badly.
– Apparently there was a big Buddhist festival yesterday, I have been promised more quotes. Maybe one of them will answer everything with something that makes a little more sense than 42.
– Just talk. It’s really that simple. Unless you have come to a decision (and it’s possible) to give up and walk away from something or someone, then just talk. Don’t assume, ask. Ask and be patient. Strange a concept as it is (and it is), not everyone works in the same time as anyone else.
– Just talk, if only it were that simple.
– Ha, the song conspires with me. “Hold on, to the thing that you love, hold on”.
– Queen Adreena on Wednesday night out in Angel. Should be fun I think. A couple of solid tracks at the least. Ugh I have to get in early Wednesday morning to leave early. I really hope I’m feeling better for that, either way has to be bed early tomorrow night.
– Oh, yes. Welcome to the wonderful world of being a grown up. It’s not anything to know that someone finds someone physically attractive. Everyone is past the point where that’s worthy of oh, I don’t know, tattle I guess. That sorta thing ended in school.
– Struggling to find something to read prose and comic wise. I know what I want…kinda but I don’t have anything to deliver it.
– Why can I not survive without coke in the office but I barely touch the stuff at home?
– I guess the answer to my email was a short and sharp “no”.
– Can anything just stop? Short of death, is there a stop?
– Disassociation. It’s a good word.
– I have had a life recently as my flatmate but it. I need to continue with this.
– The theatre is calling. When I get paid later in the week, I should do a ticket roundup.
– No music, no life. Everything sounds better live.
– I should sleep, it might help settle my stomach.
– I really don’t like seeing doctors. I don’t know why. I’ve never had a particularly bad experience with them (they may have had with me…) and it’s generally been good news but it just seems like it’s always bad. I hate it. But on the other hand it’s always nice to get good news from them, sometimes it’s really really fucking nice.
– Live fast, die young. When does the living fast begin?
– Oh man oh man. If I had the money I would like nothing more than to just walk out the door tomorrow and go somewhere and keep going. A note and an email to say I’m away for a while and then the wide open road. I’d need my camera and someway of blogging and posting photos but man I would be gone like a shot. I don’t care for how long, just a few months of me and the world. That would rock so much, maybe someday…
– It’s my current mood but it’s scary how much someone can mean so quickly.
– I need a proper monitor stand at home. I really should have some wrist rests too, I’m really getting to fear RSI greatly.
– Dublin’s calling but it’s a siren song.
– Something that has always and continues to astound me; languages. I get the general idea and I can speak 3 enough to get by but what I can’t even understand is thinking in another language. I know that’s meant to be the definition of fluency but it astounds me to think that someone can think of something and form words or ideas or anything like that in anything but English.
– Which reminds me. I don’t care what the language of the internet is. I think that some aspects of localisation and internationalisation are a waste of time. I, as someone whose first language is not their own especially don’t feel it is worth fighting for in many cases. For anyone whose language is not English (any countries version), absolutely. L10n and i18n should be done 110% but for any English language, fuck that, it’s a waste of time and resources. I don’t wait, I gain nothing by waiting for an EN_GB or EN_IE version. I get my software as and when and I get using.
– Love Movies, Hate Piracy. Sure, no problem but only when you get it into your think skulls that in order to combat piracy you need to play in the global market. Don’t delay something by 2 months (Sin fucking City) outside of the US, it just encourages piracy and rightly so. Why should I wait? What do I gain? Love Movies sure, now show some love back.
– Ugh so about that sleeping…
– It has been a while since I typed like this and it’s taken me about 40 minutes. I like it and I miss it.
– Now to really sleep.
