I've never seen anything so beautiful.
It's just one of those days. I'm going to call it winter blues.
This cursor can't sit here blinking much longer but i can't put stuff into words for some reason.

Severe lack of motivation frustrates me. What also frustrates me is the feeling of not going anywhere, whilst everyone around you is coming on leaps and bounds, and at the same time forgetting about you. Ha. Listen to me. Melodramatic ponce.

I enjoyed a 10mile walk in the snow this morning, with The XX and Karen O as appreciated company.



I need that enthusiasm to create something great.

So, exactly this time a year ago 27th November I started THIS blog. Looking back through it all has made my smile, It's most certainly served its purpose. So what do you do for a 1 year anniversary?


Quite an interesting Collaboration. Works though, right?


Wish i had something super interesting to say right now, for this post. Not today i guess.

Going to go play in whats left of the snow. Have a brilliant weekend.

Party time, Excellent. Best google street shot I've ever seen.

It really is cold out at the moment. so so cold. First time in a while I've had to get off my bike and attempt to push as my hands were too cold to hold on. Having all my hair cut off aswell made the cold thing even worse, not fun. Went on a really nice walk today though with Ru and Sam.

Took a few PICTURES aswell.

Listening to this song whilst taking rat dog for a walk today. So, if you press play, squint your eyes a bit and look at the next few photos i may have succeed in painting you a picture. A dull grey one. Its all i got to work with.

Do you ever wonder how the 'butterfly effect' has effected you? i mean, we can't go back in time like in the movie, but what small things have happened in the past that have influenced you to be where you are today?

I'm pretty sure if we didn't move into a rural house when i was little, and my next door neighbour didn't tolerate 5 year old me trying to fix the bikes he put on the front lawn to sell, then i wouldn't be me.

Maybe i think too much. Maybe. Maybe.

If you are cold.
Tea will warm you.
If you are too heated.
It will cool you.
If you are depressed.
It will cheer you.
If you are excited.
It will calm you.

What a mad few days.

I know I've posted this before. But it needs to be re-visited. Oh. My. Days.

I'm guessing your reading this as you have a spare few minutes, and your wondering what I'm mumbling about today. So, as your here. Kick it back. make sure your not muted and add a spoon full of flavoured beats to your day, it will make it taste a lot better. Play.



Got my 3rd film developed, although i think i had my Holga set to 'bulb' setting and a silly long shutter speed by accident. Booo. Anyway, I've put a few on FLICKR Have a go.

Aaaaaaah.

This mood is brilliant. After an early awakening, sat laying in bed for an hour or so thinking about money issues, saving my ideas into draft texts, then getting up to brew my new favourite twinnings for 10mins. Had a couple of really nice emails from customers and facebook comments on the fan page, then to see, whilst sleeping I've earnt my wages for the day. Then i find the most incredible and almost eloquent web edit to watch whilst sipping my tea. Happy. Days.

Have a good one.

Hospital waiting rooms can be a pretty mundane and horrible place. Not today.

I had to wait 2 hours 30 mins before being called in. This time was spent, like the rest of the patients, angled on my chair slightly towards the old man, Tom Hill, who sat in his wheel chair and entertained us with his stories, solutions and ideas. Apparently we all have a stamp on our back that we cant see, the stamp is the date of our death. Apparently his detailed vine walking stick cost him £100 and he varnished it himself. He's good with computers, he emailed ITV they emailed him back personally as he got in touch expressing his disgust towards the 'I'm a celebrity' trailers, Tom doesn't like spiders. He's been married to for 32 years to the woman sat by his side, who spent most the evening with her palm over her face aside Toms funny stories, often about her.

People can be great. I was aptly named Mr 3.30 (my appointment time) and when i was finally called in Tom started a choir of applause as i walked through them all.

My trouble facing social events needs to be addressed. Maybe.


I'm seeing this tomorrow, the premiere. Can. Not. Wait.

Let get rich and give everybody nice sweaters and teach them how to dance.
Really, really nice


£2.00 its a deal. Having a charity shop en route to the post office everyday occasionally has its advantages, especially if your after a wonky 3 legged bedside table. Like me.

Listen.

The reason people find it so hard to be happy is that they always see the past better than it was, the present worse than it is, and the future less resolved than it will be.
Found a picture from earlier this year. BUZZ

I thought i would share it.

Have a fun filled Sunday.

Despise.

Being ill isn't my favourite past time. Being violently sick is the worst. Missed bonfire night due to sleeping.

I had a conversation earlier on this week, it came to the conclusion Guy Fawkes is the symbol of absolute anarchy, think about it. Wanting to restore Catholic power, Guy wasn't about peaceful protests or anything like that. Disrupting the peace and declaring his own liberty i imagine seemed a bit half hearted. Instead Guy was planning on blowing up and destroying the house of lords with a catastrophic amount of gun powder. Fair enough. Nothing like getting your point across.


Had my second film developed, turns out i used the wrong king of film, this was supposed to be colour.

Have a look at the album on FLICKR

He uses statistics as a drunken man uses lamp-posts... for support rather than illumination. - Andrew Lang

Bon good song. Some kind of nature.

I've uploaded a few of my old photos onto FLICKR

I want to go out and take some Autumn pictures.

02/11/2010

Perhaps.

I don't think i could have got more wet, my face was too cold to touch, my ear phones were to wet to stay in my ears, hands couldn't recoil from the shape of my handlebars and had to be slid off, no chance of using my brakes. Car lights blinding any hope of seeing where i was going. Major cold aches, haven't appreciated the warmth of home for a long while. I love riding my bike.

How could i ever have let this song slip, it was in my head all the way home. You must have a go.


I'm going to go sit in front of a fire.
