Happy New Year everyone!
I hope that 2004 brings you all that you wish for.

I've just got back from my friends house, where 5 of us shared drinks and well wishes. It's 2am, and I shall sleep soon.

Well... I'm back at my PC smile
The holidays were relaxing, and nice. A bit dull mind (my folks live out in the sticks).

I'm glad to be back on SG, and can't wait to find out what all my friends have been upto...

Bugger all.

The crush thing is remaining at crush status. She has a boyfriend, and I don't really know if she'd be interested in me 'that way' even if she didn't.

I'm off to my folks for the holidays tonight. I doubt that I'll get my hands on a PC until I get back.

I hope you all have a Merry Christmas.

Don't know what to think.

I've just been to the farewell gig of a band I've been seeing for 6 or 7 years.

One of the security guys said "You're a bit old for this aren't you?"

Maybe he's right. 95% of the crowd were at least 10 years yonger than me. Does that mean I should 'grow up'?

Or is it just another case...

Yeah I've seen them three times - Ozzfest 2001, Manchester Apollo 2001 and Brixton 2002 (the second night). The London gig was pretty good, but nowhere near as great as the one at the Apollo - that blew my mind totally. I was at the front, the setlist was amazing and there was a minimum of assholes. The London gig was a bit marred for me by the huge amount of crowdsurfers and idiots banging into me all the time - it didn't help that a girlfriend I'd broken up with 3 days earlier was there with me and I was attempting to shield her from the worst of it while not getting TOO close. Tricky situation.

Oh undoubtedly it isn't just a London thing, we get crowd wankers up here as well. To be honest I'm incredibly fussy about my gig-going, tending to get irritated by the slightest things. I'm turning into a boring old git who stands in a good viewing position or gets a seated ticket. Damn. Having said that, I was at the front for Therapy? the other week and that was class. I think I'll always prefer smaller gigs to be honest, some of the best I've been to have been local ones watching my friends' bands from the crowd barrier with a few other mates.

Lebowski.

Cool.

"We'll cut off your johnson!"
starisea:
Hi!

I just wanted to stop by and thank you for all the kindness and good energy that you sent my way while I was ill n' gah n' all. You are soooooo sweet! kiss

I sincerely hope that you are enjoying your time off and that all of your redecorating projects are progressing nicely. (I fantasize about redecorating. I'm so sucked into the Home and Garden network. *giggles* Guess I should really start working on that real estate buying plan, huh?)

Have a delightful Solstice and happy, happy holidays. *sending cozy holiday hugs and joyful wishes*

I just got back from watching 'The Return of the King'.

Very good. Only one criticism in that it could have ended 15 minutes earlier. I know that all of that stuff is in the book, but there's loads in the books that have been left out for cinematic reasons. That could have been left out too.

I still can't wait for the extended DVD...

Painting this room is taking longer than I planned. I would finish tomorrow, except that I'll spend the afternoon in the cinema watching 'The Return of the King'. biggrin

Maybe I'll put another coat on tonight (if I don't get sucked into SG for too long).

Fumes are making me spacey too...
wuvmonki:
Lucky you... I won't be able to see ROTK at least for a week! It's killing me!
matt_organic:
Cheers dude. Fumes not good. Decorating is something I actually long to do, having been stuck in accomodation I cannot personalise for way too long.

It's very, very sunny today. biggrin
There is something that I find very satisfying about the sunlight on a winterdays day, much more so than on a summers day. Maybe that's because winter (in London) tends to mean an awful lot of grey, or maybe it's because I'm a winter baby.

Today will be a decorating day: but not 'holly and ivy', paint and varnish for...

I don't know how anybody can even think about being festive just yet. I know Christmas comes with winter but it's f**kin' freezing down here at the moment.frown

Can you even feel your ears after standing outside for more than two minutes?

I'm free smile

Yesterday was my last day at work, beleive me that's a good thing. Sure, when I run out of cash it will be bad, but I got a pay off so no worries just yet.

There were about 6 of us leaving, including the prettiest girl in the office. We talked for a bit, for the fist time (our jobs didn't overlap much...

Arrrgh!!
I hate computers sometimes.
Very geeky, but I thought I'd better upgrade from Windows 98. That *seemed* to go OK, but things are very tempremental. There have been a few keyboard / fist interfaces I'm afraid mad

Hopefully things are back to normal now, and I should be able to bore you all with my thoughts smile
