As with all journals, this one looks like it's fading to an apathy. Right now I'm listening to "The Downward Spiral" by NIN, which is always a bit of a sign I'm slipping into old bad habits of negatitivity.
Resorting to other members style of postings is a sure sign, but Elysia journal entries are more entertaining than b3ta so it can't be wrong.
Top things Edd will do to stop being so apathetic and write proper journal stuff and just generally get out of the quicksand of negativity:
1. Drink a fuckload of steaming hot turksih coffee
"Thisshh sshhould poosshhhee no shhignicant problem, schhhickboy"
Thanks Sean. I bought a load, and we're talking over a kilogram, of pungeant smelling, even-the-fumes-have-an-effect, slip-me-a-rhohypnol-and-I'll-laugh-in-you- face, Turkish coffee. I've got a big pan with a frankly terrifying amount in there, weighed down with my weekly calorie intake of sugar, for good measure, downstairs bubbling away.
I'll be astral projecting by the end of it, so if anyone wants me to project their way to do anything, just ohm.
2. Tackle the hideous 8 headed beast that is my spreadsheet.
No, this isn't Dilbert, and I don't get my kicks from data analysis. Somehow, however, all work eventually leads me to an excel worksheet with 1000's of numbers in it, with eye-fucking colours dashed all over akin to 80's rave scene vids. If I can become the daddy of this data, I can effectively banish my boss for 4 months and lie back with my bucket full of coffee sludge.
3. Listen to music that isn't Nine Inch Nails.
Come on, I'm 25, shouldn't I be wearing comfortable jumpers and listening to songs about mortgages and how funny variable rate ISAs are or something? After seeing Blue Velvet again, probably not, but I'm off on a quest to find stuff I missed out on. Like Riot Grrl, I realised yesterday I only know 2 Le Tigre songs, a couple of Sleater Kinney albums and a handful of other tracks. Music makes me happy, so I'll be tracking them down. If anyone has suggestions, send a carrier pigeon.
4. See more movies, especially foreign cinema
The Guardian have just brought out their new foreign and art-house film guide, and it made me realise how little I've seen of last years releases. No Bon Bon the dog for Edd, I only just got Thumbsucker and haven't found time to watch it yet. I managed time for the piece of shit movie Underworld Evolution (well, the gore was good, plot and acting piss poor).
Ok, there's probably much more I can do, like watch the Ghost in the Shell Standalone stuff that I've been drooling over at my friends house. Right now though I'm going for more coffee while "The Big Come Down" is on, Skoochy Boochy x
