Sounds like a fun few nights you have planned.

We're getting to the Leeds gig just as the doors open, I'm coming straight from work. Can't wait!
It's my boyfriends birthday the day after, so we're making a night of it. Look out for us and he's likely to buy you a jagermeister or something equally as nasty smile
gtwr:
I've been saying to everyone about how jealous I am of them going to see the Bouncing Souls, but you're just taking the piss wink I do admire your dedication. I hope you caught all your trains OK and you made it to all the gigs. But if it does finish you off, what a way to go.

ikaruga:
hehehe. I try and avoid drunken posting (this is probably a lie) as I tend to ramble. a lot.
poor iannnnnn got a drunken 3-part text after we went out drinking last year. shocked

as for the horrors, my friend's initial take on them was "I don't know if I like them or hate them", which I'll remind him of this week.

only downside to me dragging them to something is that the other friend will then drag us to some bloody rave act in december...

It's not far from the truth mate. I can't wait to throw half of the shite out and then listen to the cunts tantrums when he gets back and discovers the memory and components he's been planning on salvaging for the past two years have been chucked in the bin biggrin It's all useless anyway.... if he needs them, he can buy them for fuck's sake.

had a rough couple of work days, nothing exciting enough to gripe about on here though... tongue

so i left work early today, came home and stuck on the most recent Blondie Documentary, "One Way Or Another".

watching Blondie, and especially them playing "Denis" on Top Of The Pops back in 1978 (when i was 8 or 9), always brings back big old memories for me...because...

Precisely. AaaGaGGGGGHHHHHHhhhh, indeed.

People can be idiots. But when they're nice then you feel guilty for hating most of them. Oh what a pickle.

Actually, no it's not. It's just one random boy in my life being an idiot. Stupid boy.

Isn't it amazing the amount of crap you can collect over the years?

So today i spent most of the day emptying my desk at work and packing up my stuff, ready for me and my little box of belongings to start work at our other office on Monday morning.

Unfortunately i didn't get out of having to move offices. luckily i am still doing...

1. What did you do in 2006 that you'd never done before?
not sure - I think everything I did in 2006 is stuff i already do - gigging, drinking, getting tattooed. Although I did get to Amsterdam, which was awesome.

2. Did you keep your new years' resolutions,...
