I drugged my heart with doublespeak...
(I just had to put this picture up because it is phenomenal, although I can't remember where I found it)
I am in a pretty terrible mood at the moment, several things that other people are doing/not bloody doing are really grating on me right now. Which is a shame, since I have actually had quite a nice day at work, so i'm sort of in a pleasant mood whilst still maintaining a low level of annoyance. Its hard work, I tell you...sort of frustrating that I can't rant on here for fear of it being read, but at least I've been able to rant on the phone today to a friend, so i suppose its okay.
Just got Thrice's new album 'Beggars'...so far listened to four songs and it sounds awesome, if a little mellow (I will hold my judgement for a while on that statement, seeing as the song that just started playing is a little more energetic).
The shopping trip on Tuesday was not as productive as I had hoped, although the drinking of sparkling rose and eating of cheese toasties whilst watching 24 hour party people was very much so. I'm not sure how I feel about 24 HOUR PARTY PEOPLE because, although there were some really good scenes & it showed the evolution of the music scene in Manchester well, I have just come to the conclusion that Steve Cogan is not funny unless he is Alan Partridge. Like, all of the UFO's and tacky talking the camera parts almost ruined it, it was like the fucking Cogan show, rather than being about the music. Watched Bright Young Things, directed by Stephen Fry, which I adored and thought was very clever. You could tell it was Stephen Fry directing it, with all of the subversive imagery and diction.
I have been looking at stuff to buy to decorate my room with in Sheffield in September, and have found some great stuff (despite having no funds to actually buy the bloody stuff). Essentially, I want my room to look like this...
I recently found a scrapbook I put together about 8 years ago, when I had just started primary school and realised how lovely it was to read through it, I felt really nostalgic and it was amazing to see how much my life has changed. In the spirit of this nostalgia I have decided to piece together a new scrapbook/series of scrapbooks (more likely) of my teenage years. I might do one of teenage years and also one of Uni. I just thought it would be an amazing thing to leave behind to my kids in future, and also it would be so nice to read it when I am like 90 (and have fuck all else to do other than vegitate). So the epic compilement compilation begins...
