i'm sick of feeling like i lost this fight

:(

literally, how good is March 10th gonna be?  and here's why...

to celebrate having The Americans in London, i'm having a bit of a house party slash acoustic gig in the flat.  we're going to clear out as much as possible, quadruple protect the sofa in cheap sheets and have about 10 people playing songs.  no amps and no mics.  just good songs, hearty ( Read more... )

best thing about where i work?  no-one knows nuffink about the internet.

one of my jobs recently was to overhaul our band The Zico Chain's myspace, and save it from the unorganised mess it had become.  this was because i'd one day a while back volunteered to do something with our Hassle and Full Time Hobby myspaces, due to them being tres dull and ( Read more... )

today, in an effort to get Alexisonfire's new video 'Boiled Frogs' played on MTV2, i sent the following text to their weird Text, Drugs & Rock n Roll show (hosted, bizarrely, by a Cow)

"bbbrrruppp Cow! please drop some phat Alexisonfire 'Boiled Frogs' beatz. Loving that song so hard right now.  Biggup yo' udders!"

i'm either the biggest hero ( Read more... )

this are solid gold, decided tonight fact:

girls in heels, dancing to punk rock, are sexier, ACTUALLY SEXIER, than any other type of girl.

"the only thing i haven't done yet is die
and it's me and my plus one at the after life"

corking.

this is so very sad, but i basically keep going onto my myspace and looking at it.  i think it actually looks proper good and a fair representation of me.  my top 8 is amazing too.

• two people i see every damn day, and that i'm more than happy to do so
• three people i'm really excited about being visited by

inexplicably, i feel rubbish.  it's like being romantically lonely or something.  i'm pretty sure it's because i'm actually a woman or whatever.  i can't be a girl though, as i'm in London and, as Morgs will testify, THERE ARE NO GIRLS IN LONDON.
