1. Went and saw Teenage Fanclub at the Metro in Sydney's CBD. Great stuff.
2. Didn't get to see the Special Beat the following night for one or other reason. That was a bit of a disappointment as that would've been a bunch of fun if they'd managed to do justice to old Specials and Beat songs. Oh well.
TFOG and I had dinner with my folks this evening, as they were in town for a night.
When with my parents, TFOG always waits for the moment my mother will do/say something that pisses her off. Tonight it came with my mother "reminding me" that I (we) owed her money for another meal we'd had out a month or two back. We'd had a... Read More
My dear friend Rachael is now here at SG! She's at ddawll -- go say hi.
Meantime Anton and Linz and I have been muttering about making some music together and forming a band of sorts. Here's Anton and I talking about it on IM.
Anton: [CONFIDENTIAL BAND NAME DISCUSSION]. (That's Lindsey's kinda' funny suggestion for a bandname).
TFOK: yeah, hey, I don't mind that... Read More
I really think you should forward that entire conversation to Susan Faludi. It'll push her yet another towards her ultimate goal of incorporating herself into the common lexicon without any real reference to her sloppy scholarship and questionable conclusions.
i was typing "ok kiddo" when you disconnected
so...
ok kiddo!
health is healing up
brain is currently not melted
hoping for continued improvement

Incidentally, is there anything more depressing than the Current Events section of a modern-day bookstore? There are so many rows of hastily-written, 200-250 page books with giant print, huge margins, and a cover featuring a smug bastard under a title like THEYRE ALL AGAINST YOU: How Hollywood, the French, and the CIA Have Conspired to Pollute Your Precious Bodily...

When I was a teenager, when Clinton was President, I used to think it was kind of sad that I was growing up in such boring, uneventful, and happy times. I thought all the exciting parts of history were done. Now I wish they were again.
Well I wouldnt know anything about that now would I seeing I'm not the sort that stoops to the sordid level of casting aspersions about peoples rumoured "freak begetting" activities.
Lame update last time. It was kind of an issue of overload -- too much to talk about regarding the trip Stateside, and all of the things I saw and the people I met and got to hang out with.
In short, I spent time in 4 US cities (LA, San Diego, New York, Seattle), three of which I had never been to before, met... Read More
Been hanging out with legionnaire and toothpick in NYC lately, which has been fun. They sure do take their poker and pool seriously in Manhattan!
Coney Island midsummer = more fog than you can shake a stick at!
Still trying to figure out when I get my luggage back. Ostensibly it's been delivered to La Guardia airport. Now it just needs to be delivered to... Read More
Caught up with Anton and Linz last night for some drinks before my trip Stateside. We didn't win pub trivia, but we didn't lose either.
The FuckOffGirl gets nervous when I travel, and she was aghast when she found I'd booked myself into a hotel in Manhattan that was awash with rats and roaches. We saw the reviews of the hotels by former guests on... Read More
