courage with a 5 litre glass =

totally stole this from tom's blog. it's the result of deciding to play courage at gideon's house one night, typical of my luck that i ended up downing a 5-litre jug full of just about every variety of alcohol imaginable...not even a minute later i was projectile-vomiting on his flower bed. charming. makes for a good photo though. if you're into good photos and that kind of thing you should give tom's blog a look, amazing photographer, some really cool work that he does with film which i think it pretty cool.

we'll fight like cockroaches

i did the dishes in my flat today and found about 5 cockroaches drowned in a cereal bowl. bleak. gotta be a pretty kak way to die, drowning in pronutro. although it beats being burned alive or stabbed in the gut and having to walk for a hundred metres holding your intestines in your stomach. anyway. i took my watch off for five minutes to wash up and when i came back to get it there was another cockroach on top of it...a dead one too, which sort of makes me wonder how it had enough time to crawl onto my watch and then die within the time that i was doing dishes. 

speaking of watches, i have an obsession with them and i decided i'll probably post some photos of watches on here. probably the most boring concept i can think of but thats what blogs are for.

i have an idea for a song in my head, which is good...whether or not it turns out to be anything that i end up using is another matter altogether...

Enter The Wooden Birds

just found out that American Analog Set, one of my favourite bands has a new project going.... they're called The Wooden Birds... sounds pretty cool so far, they only have two songs up on their profile but it's worth a look...i really like the guy's voice and the new stuff is a lot more folky...go check it out. x

fuck the eighties, i'm going to the future.

i don't know how to write music anymore.

this is a problem....the last song i wrote was in december 2007...and i'm pretty sure people are getting bored as shit of the same songs we play at all our shows. i start out fine, i get a few ideas and then it just goes to hell...i can't stop over-analysing everything i write and trying to make it sound like none of the bands i've been obsessed with lately, but it just ends up going nowhere..

sigh

anyway. this is mainly a result of not wanting to start on my creative development brief that was due at 9 this morning...i can't draw...most of my friends can, which sucks...i just looked at a bunch of their blogs and felt slightly more self-depreciative. fuck my life, all that kind of thing, blah blah.
