Everyone I know

…wants to know what in the world’s got
into you and I wish I could sing
What it means to feel like you

Come now hush
Tears won’t help you carry on
Take good care will you?

in a far off time long ago

This photo was taken during the Queens of the Stone Age second set at Big Day Out 2003. Lisa had spent most of the day trying to give either Marc or Simon a wedgie. We had seen some awesome bands like Sparta and PJ Harvey, and gotten all squished at the front of the main stage during Jane’s Addiction and Foo Fighters.

We were so exhausted by this point in the day. Aaron has the most energy in this picture. Hah. Lisa and I were knackered. Joff was just excited after seeing Kraftwerk.

Chris took this picture. Back in the days where he used to only photograph with a Polaroid.
This was one of our first real times that we hung out.
Funny how some things, from a long time ago can stick in your mind very clearly.

In my dream

Twin Peaks series one should be in my mailbox very soon. I’m quite excited.

Its a beautiful day out, but no one is replying to my messages so I am doing nothing at all. I should be motivated to do something useful. But I can’t be bothered. ITS NICE OUTSIDE damn it!

So Saturday-Sunday Something

So it’s just after midnight on a Saturday/Sunday morning.
I’m lying in bed, wide awake because I couldn’t take more
of being at some party

Standing next to a girl ten years my junior.
She was and is lovely. She’s a child though.
It was a weird feeling, realising that this person was born
a whole ten years after I was. Some people
I never think about the age gap with
I like that, and that is why they are some of my
best friends.

So,
Now I’m lying in bed, listening to a mix tape
of the most depressing songs
Feeling a little lost
and a little scared
I don’t know what I should be doing

Hello Wednesday

I should be asleep. I should feel like writing something more tangible.
I should vent my frustration, but alas I am not able to do any more than post one shitty webcam pic of me while I lie in bed and mess around on the “internet”.

Frozen Legs

Last night I walked home alone from GBM to my house. Overall not the smartest idea but I was just so tired I didn’t care. My legs were freezing cold, and all I could think about was getting home into bed.

On the way down Madras St, I saw a massive accident with what looked like a bunch of drunk boy racers. Their cars were a mess, they were drunkenly swearing at each other laying blame. Then there was this couple, just standing there…. staring at the car which had destroyed their fence and entered their lounge.

I woke up this morning, kind of unaware of the coming home, I was just so tired. I had a recollection of getting into my bed, and that was all. I remember waking up at 4am with my laptop on. So I turned it off, and went back to sleep. When I turned it on this morning, there were 3 episodes of Never Mind the Buzzcocks on my desktop.

but this empty bedroom won’t make anything right…

I’ve been sitting out on the front porch, enjoying the mild weather. Drinking a beer, finishing the final chapters of The Wind Up Bird Chronicle.

I had my headphones on listening to my ipod making itself a sweet mix while I read the book. Also what was nice, is that my glasses are now not giving me headaches wearing them.
