The Isobel Campbell & Mark Lanegan gig last night was as amazing as I expected it to be.
There were a few annoying things though.
Why the hell do people go to a gig & then talk all the way through!!! I know I wasn't the only irritated by it. I heard quite a few people complaining about it after.
I taped the show only...

I think I'm changing my mind already 
My ticket for Mark Lanegan & Isobel Campbell arrived today 
It's for london not the Bristol show as I originally planned though. I needed an excuse to take a day off work
I've got my cycling legs back. After 3 months of being either unable or too lazy to do much on the bike I've finally recovered that edge of fitness which makes it less...

Then I'll see you at the gig then!
WOOHOO!!!
I've got my song back.
I'm now officialy over my recent bout of depression & feeling like a self-pitying loser.
I woke up yesterday with a song in my head. I waited before making the announcement to be sure, but it's been there all day today too!!.
Now I'm back to my usual "I'm a loser. but what the fuck, I'm a happy loser"...

I dunno, you do everything you can for them, you bring them up right, you instill your values into them, and somehow, they still go astray...

i know the feeling. and the worst thing is that all the gigs i want to go too seem to all be packed into one weekend 
I've been listening to Portishead all day.
It kinda matches my mood.
Work sucks. Still
I'm still broke.
My life consists of, Get up to damn early. Go to work & either be rushed of my feet or be totallly bored for 8 hours. Go home. Eat. Annoy people online. Listen to music / watch TV. Read. Go to bed. Repeat ad infinitum...

ah well, the smitten thing has fallen flat on it's face, bit of a shame, but ah well.

Your daily routine is surprisingly similar to mine too.
Hope your new year went well.

Why are the people I work with so fucking pathetic & useless?
did an 6 hour shift on my own today, averaging 70 customers an hour & our weekly delivery.
The boss comes in halfway through the morning asks me if I'm on my own before fucking off again without even saying they were leaving (or offering to give me a break!!!).
Somebody eventually shows...

The back is still a bit sore but I finally got back on the road bike today. I took the "scenic" route home from work & it was a lot easier than I expected considering the month long lay off.
I was bored this afternoon so I decided to work out how much climbing there is on the route. So after examining my map extremely...

That's a real bitch about the minidisc player. But they were taping the show, so I guess thats small consolation. I was lucky enough to be stood in a place where people weren't talking during the set. I did get some pictures on my phone, which I'm quite pleased with. Message me if you want any of them.
It was a very, very special gig though wasn't it? And I loved that they finished on 'Wedding dress' although a big part of me was hoping for 'Hit the city', even though Isobel's voice wouldn't really have worked.
