Been kinda bumbling along recently, haven't gotten round to doing half the things I ought to. So tomorrow I need to make myself: write off for a certificate of investment from the NS&I, write a thank you note to Grandma, practice with my guitar and start drawing down some of the jewellery designs floating around my head. Labels: Life
I am my own worst enemy most of the time or rather the part of my brain that goes into magpie mode and gets distracted by shiny things is.
Y'know life is kinda good at the moment, things certainly seem clearer and more promising than they did when I was working at the school. Maybe it's the fact that I'd long convinced myself that although I wanted to play music or make jewellery I'd never be good in any creative occupation. Or maybe because that job was a soulcrushing and emotionally/mentally draining and suffocating atmosphere with very little of the things that interested me about computing in the first place. Perhaps one day I'll work that out but for now I'm content to be pretty fucking stable and enjoying the world :D.

Things are good, looking forward to the end of the month when we've got Rick's birthday party at Karma (time to dress up as a gangster), Dr Butler's Hatstand Medicine band playing at Red House and NekroDrako doing a new release gig at the Grapes. Much awesome music I think you'll find. Almost as good although further in the future is the Dub Trio gig at Corp, someone thinks that dub/metal through a 22k rig sound amazing and I'm totally inclined to agree :D. Labels: Life
Kinda meandering at the moment although I've recently discovered that I have some more money stashed away and have decided to invest it in a lot of jewellery making tools and supplies. Or I will once I've got it transferred from the NS&I :).
Lifs is good, hope that yours are too friends *hugs*.

*blows some of the dust away* Labels: Life
Not touched this for a while have I. No particular reason, just haven't been in a blogging mood despite many interesting and varied things have happened in the last few months.
Anyway, life is pretty fucking awesome at the moment :D. Getting extremely interested in jewellery making and from the few books I've bought about starting techniques and tools needed show me that it isn't as difficult as I thought it might be. Just need to save up enough money to equip myself with the right tools and some basic materials and then I too can make jewellery, which should be fun as I'd much rather wear something I made myself than buy it and if all goes well I might even be able to make money off it. Crazy, no?.
S'about it really, *many hugs* to you all and extra for Andy :).

Thank fuck that mouthbreathing, shit munching fuckwit is pissing off to the Navy in a few weeks, I'm a hairsbreadth from eviscerating the piss poor waste of air, water and food.
Yet more of our nice kitchen stuff has been fucked beyond use by him >:|.
Calm thoughts, calm thoughts, find the happy place, take some codeine...

Also, it is minus fuck knows how cold outside and my room is rapidly becoming just as cold :(. Thinks I that we may be needing to have a discussion with the landlady about insulation before next year.

Why does drinking bourbon or rum of any type make me sober up? I'm sure this is not right as people would say.

Comedia. Maybe. Labels: Life
I'm informed that more than one seriously fine lady (I use that in an entirely honest sense) wants me. This freaks me the fuck out. I mean I haven't had sex for over 3 years and yet I somehow have 2 incredibly hot women who both apparently want my skinny body.
I'm feeling more than a wee bit terrified, I know I shouldn't but then you haven't met them yanno.
Quantum fluctuations what am I supposed to do?

Not put anything here for a while. Things are seemingly on the up, going out and about more and managing to do a better job of controlling the fear. All this despite the fact that it is winter and usually I get a bit more brainwrong this time of year.
Also more cooking funs. Tomorrow night I'm cooking with red onion, red pepper, garlic, peppercorns, tomato and pasta. Hopefully it'll taste interesting and also nice :).
Gots to go and meet clippy in manchester for a day of irritation and shopping, fortunately Sonic Boom Six happen to be doing a gig the night before so I will be either bouncing on a ska high or still drunk. On t'other hand I really need to get some new jeans from afflecks palace and I do feel like getting another set of piercings, maybe some good will come out of it after all.
Best get back to my mix cd, all that unpleasant industrial and electro doesn't organise itself into a carefully constructed progression y'know.

Fucking stupid bastards in the bank. Why oh why do they automatically change your balance when you pay in a cheque but then mysteriously decide that the money doesn't exist for another few days, despite the incredibly positive balance you now have. Nnng, won't be going to manchester now, at least not until another weekend >:|.

Blarg, stupid freshers plague. Just sorted out the transfer of ownership for the rest of that money, must remember this time to not spend it all on shinies in a vague attempt to make myself happier.

Bollocks. I seem to have misplaced all the electronic copies of my CV, now I have the joy of having to write it out all over again >:|.
