The Streets
Stay Positive
Cos this world swallows souls
And when the blues unfold
It gets cold silence burns holes
You're going mad
Perhaps you always were
But when things was good you just didn't care
This is called irony
When you most need to get up you got no energy
Time and time shit'll happen
The dark shit's unwrapping
But no-one's listening your mates...

Thats right on - just trying to stay positive!
I was getting all excited about going to Thai Boxing and when I walked in the gym there were a load of muscly serious-looking blokes and no women, I thought 'fuck, how am I supposed to spar with them?' then the guy that runs the place told me it was Fighter's Night, I was pretty relieved except the two nights when they have mixed sessions,...

Hey there, cheers for the comment. Erm, annoyingly it appears the Donnas gig has been cancelled (went to get me ticket today despite being struck down with flu so was NOT best pleased when I found out!
). Ah well...I'm sure there'll be another decent gig around here soon if you fancy meeting up and going to see some good music (I think the next one I'm going to is Electric Soft Parade on November 1st which is a Sat night - I have to leg it back from the footy at Nottingham to see it which should be fun!
)
I do know Headingley actually as it's on the road into Leeds from where I live. Rarely go drinking there though mainly 'cos it's full of soft southern student softies - give me the city centre any day!
Good to hear you've had a good week - reminds me of a quote I once read which goes something along the lines of "sex is a lot like self-expression - the less you find yourself doing it, the less you find you want to." Very true...
Anyway, I'm off to rest for a bit and hopefully sleep this annoying flu off. Speak soon.

Hey there, hope you have fun! Or, as you'll probably be reading this when you get back, that should probably be "had fun".
Anyways, putting my "three days into the future" head on, if you went to see Chris T-T at the Vine on Thursday or Simple Kid at Joseph's Well on Friday or you were just out round the record shops in the city centre on Saturday afternoon then I was probably there as well and either we missed each other or we have in fact now met which is gonna make this whole sentence look kind of weird and...oh man, this fortune-telling lark is doing me head in, I think I need a lie down.
Either way, hope you had a good 'un and speak soon.

It's Hull Fair weather, which means when it gets cold, and dark early, and you feel the need for a hat and glubs.
I think I must be very happy and settled at the moment, all my housemates are home and the general pottering about of various people made me feel like I was all cosy at my mum's house after coming home from school....

Yorkie's Survival Tips #1 - If chased by a Fred Durst lookalike, simply hold up a picture of Britney Spears. He will promptly start blubbing and probably need to sit down. While he is thus incapacitated this will give you the chance to escape.
Good to hear things are going well for ya - will get in touch with you about the Donnas gig at some point a bit nearer the time but hopefully it'll be a cool night!
Oh and don't worry - the shirt in question has long since been consigned to a box in the attic. I think I'll leave those sort of fashion statements to Incubus from now on...

Yeah, I really should have had my wits about me, only I was too busy with my 'homer screaming' impression at the time. I think theres definitely an ITV show idea in "Britain's Worst Geese" Good luck with your test! x @_@ v78

Hey, congrats!
Now you're ready to join the rest of us out here in the big bad nasty place known as "the real world". Take it from me, it sucks. But you'll love it really.
Good to hear you had a fun time at the FLC gig as well - kind of wish I'd had the money to go to that one meself as I've seen 'em live twice and really enjoyed it. Instead I had to make do with the Cosmic Rough Riders but I enjoyed it so what the hell...
Oh yeah and before I go, good luck with the punk lad too!!

Congrats and good luck in the real world known here in Indiana as hell
Gone away for a couple days, when I get back I want to know,
1) what's the best fight you've ever been in?
2) who has been the most influential person in your life ever, Trevor?

Generally, I avoid fights with people (I know, I'm a wimp). How about being involved in anti-apartheid protests? Apart from that, nearly got in a pretty dumb fight over a pool table at the pub once.
I would have to say my Dad, followed by my wife.

I'm off to Manchester on Fri to see the Criminals, having to go on my own like the sad geek I am but hey, in fact I'm quite pleased since it will be the first time I've done something like this without somebody there to hold my hand and I feel quite grown-up. Besides, it's easy to get talking to people at gigs if you've...

I wanna go see the Fun Lovin Criminals in Leeds on Thursday but nobody will come with me
I've got the coolest E.T doll, it says 'I'm E.T' and 'Ho ho ho!' for some reason.
It's a beautiful day and I'm going walking by the sea with the dog, to try to figure out what my long-term goals are and how to make them happen,...

No-one wants to go see the FLC with you - that sucks. Maybe you should try threats or bribery. I'd go with you if I lived anywhere near Leeds

'Ey up, sorry to hear about the FLC gig. I'd offer to go with you but I have absolutely no money until the 26th due to me going to London to visit a mate next week which sucks. Though I'm going to see Killing Joke with a few mates at the Rocket on October 5th and possibly the Donnas there on the 14th as well - you're more than welcome to join us to either of them if you fancy it.
Specially since I can't remember what I put, but I think the last bit was about the fact that I rule, so that can't be too bad can it? Arghhh. I hate this bollocks.
Right good party though, my friend's birthday, him and his lass are off travellling for...

Know what you mean about nights out getting more civilised - this is the second time this weekend I've been out on the town and have been home before midnight which isn't good. Though I'm still wearing my Vibrators "Troops Of Tomorrow" T-shirt (which has a skull and crossbones with an army helmet on the skull on it) so, fingers crossed, I think I've got some way to go before I grow up yet. I hope so anyway!!

I had such a good night, last night
Went through to Leeds after finally making arrangements with lil punk boy, mmm so cute
Booked a hotel room which turned out to be lovely, even tho it was quite cheap, it was very posh and had lots of interesting gadgets to play with. We went to a few pubs, had a few JD & cokes,...

Hey there, cheers for the comment - good to hear you're feeling better and that you had a great time in Leeds
. Yeah, as I say, if we do get this tour going (and bear in mind that we're a good two months at least away from getting it together sufficiently to start gigging around Leeds let alone further afield so it's a very big "if"), I'll do me best to make sure we do a gig there at some point. Promise
. Anyway, it's Friday night, I've had a cack day at work and the voices in my head are currently saying something along the lines of "go to the pub yorkie...you know you want to..." so I'm going to go for some beers. Take care and speak soon. 
All better now

Hey.
Sorry to hear about all the shit that's happened. I can't really say much as nothing as serious that has ever happened to me but I'm glad to hear you're feeling better.
Just remember one thing though - you are not alone. Everyone has days when life is so shit that they just want to scream - we all just deal with it in different ways and there is no right or wrong way to go about it. To (mis)quote one of my heroes Ginger Wildheart, "In the brain, humankind has been given the ultimate weapon in psychological warfare - it's just a pity no bugger ever gave us an instruction manual!"
Keep your chin up - I hardly know you but from what little I know of you so far I know you'll pull through it. (I hope that makes sense!!

we all go through things that knock us sideways, but we all can get through them, we just have to do it in our time and in our own way, but having said that theres always people out here who'll do what they can to brighten things up a little if you need em too.

I've been bulimic since I was 15, and for the last two years I've had sporadic bouts of depression where I work myself up into a worse and worse state of mind.

One thing everybody needs to remember sometimes is that bieng depressed doesn't make a person a freak, or a charity case. It's just the way they're feeling. Maybe it doesn't always need to be 'cured', sometimes it's there for a damn good reason, and feeling down (really down) for a while is a positive thing in the long run. Gotta feel the lows to appreciate the highs, all that jazz.
I'd give you hug if I could, not because it'd help, but because hugs are nice no matter how shitty you feel.
I hardly know you, and I like you already, so there's something good going on somewhere, for what that's worth.

Yikes. It's really cruel how sometimes the only thing we can't control is our brain.
I've struggled with it too. Anti-deps really helped me once upon a time.
