I don’t understand why, or infact how, but I want especially the jumper. They just look, pleasing.

In old music we trust
After a hard work weekend, and a crappy day of work, the boy find solace in Nick Drake’s Man in the shed. From twiddly piano bits, or the slightly fumbled guitar twang, it’s almost perfect.
And what comes on next - debaser by the Pixies. Perfect contrast.

Thetrue horror of corporate existence
I was watching The Girl in the Café and suddenly remembered something someody once told me. “Don’t work too hard or you’ll wake up 30″.
Also it’s got Kelly Macdonald in it, who is most lovely, and Bill Nighy who plays a shambling, nervous, cival servent perfectly. He’s also appearing in Underworld: Evolution, hazzar!
Old Simpsons
Its strange how old episodes of the Simpsons look like the simpsons, only a bit rubbish, and lumpy.

friends
I forgot to say, thank god for C. and him looking after me His lass, B. peeled off to see theGirl was ok too I think. I suddenly realise how much I need friends at times.
One wedding, ten thousand friends, and theGirl
Today the third of my friends got married. Im feeling old and horrifically single. I finally found the place, the wedding was beutiful (small and neat, highly religious without being preachy) and all my friends were there. theGirl, of whom I had been working on not thinking about appeared off the coach, looking about as stunning as I’ve ever seen her, with her new boyfriend, a chunky, blond, fashionable glasses wear German, who seem afferble enough.
I was nearly sick into my shoes. I almost managed to forget thoughout the service, almost. I also managed to get through the wedding without crying, which might be a first.
I’m happy I got through it. I even managed a hug and stilted conversation without vomitting, crying, violence or leaving. I’m dreading the do tonight, my stomach s doing backflips even now just thinking about it. Te strange thing was, I don’t remember noticing she smelled nice, and I always did in the past.

Google Hello!
I saw a link, and when I went back, it didn’t have it there to link to. It had gone! I think Googles new IM lient thing might be called Hello.
SWAT vs Ravers
Thats right - a rave, on private property, broken up by SWAT team with dogs. Impressive stuff there - they obviously weren’t feeling the love.
Cunning, but I wouldn’t be using it..
The technology involved in a homemade endoscope is interesting enough, but I think I’d prefer a profession made, smooth edged one.

Busyness
Such busy night, unpacking, washing, cooking, cleaning, ironing and generally being housemaid like. Fuck, I’ve become a middle aged housewife.
Piano Man Goes Home!
It appears that the (in)famous paino man has broken his silence, thoug we are yet to hear who he was.
Space age door
Discribed as a “sliding door which opens automatically based on proximity” it didn’t sound very exciting, but this is very very cool.

Headlines Part V
Its another amasing headline, the kind that you just couldn’t make up. Thats right - ritish Soldiers Get Germ-Fighting Undies.
Look at that chaps face - he loves his new pants!
hunter S T
Im a huge fan of Hunter S Tompson, and I was quite upset fwhen he killed himself, but i we can get a Fuck Yeah! from the crowd for the way he’s being sent off.
When I die, I’d like to be buiried (even if I can’t spell it), but a good dose of fireworks and explosions wouldn’t go amiss.
