i had to leave the LOM community. the endless spamming of my f-list with fanfic finally got too much.
(is not into fanfic. tried it once. tired of it soon.)
i'm feeling down and low and lonely and all sorts of horrible things at the moment. i wish i was just a smidgen more mature and strong.
and my domain has expired. hence jables has disappeared :( i should replace him with tobeybobey soon.
er...tobeybobey?????

oh my oh my...i am knackered.
i am sitting at my computer waiting for the na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na Gas Man!! he tried to get in on tuesday (didn't let him) and now s/he has 30mins to show up or else. i so wanted a lie-in as well but instead i'm drinking endless cups of tea and updating my crappy, for-gym-use-only, mp3 player. and i've been here since 7.30. *yawns*
(update 10.35am : he's here!!)
![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) ronsoftie has been :) and gone :(
we had a lovely time and the weather was just divine (still is). perfect for a little river cruise to greenwich, even if the observatory was shut by the time we got there. so instead of that we walked under the thames and pottered around canary wharf counting floors on buildings and the south bank counting joggers. legs = hurting.
after some heavy shopping (and yet another failed attempt to eat at the Rio Cafe) we went to see Music&Lyrics, which was really very nice. hugh grant was FIT...there is no other word for it...and after saying to a few people that i'd wish he'd challenge himself a bit more in terms of roles he takes on, i found this quote last night:
"I have from time to time experimented with serious roles. I don’t mind doing it, it’s just that the film always bombs so you tend to lose heart. And to be absolutely honest, there are a lot of people who do comedy who have this convulsive need every other film to go and do something serious to prove they can act. I don’t feel that same need.
I feel defensive of comedy. I think it’s very difficult. I’ve never really seen the point of me in a serious thing. I’m OK but it’s nothing special. If you want deep and serious get a Fiennes brother or Daniel Day Lewis. It’s more fun doing these things where I bring something to the party that others can’t." (source)
i get you hugh! and i appreciate that (i assume he means just ralph fiennes, btw ;). stick to what you know and what you're good at, is the moral there. maybe next time something where the lovestory is slightly more believeable though, eh? (THEY HAD SEX ONCE AND "BROKE UP" LIKE TWO DAYS AFTERWARDS AND WE'RE SUPPOSED TO CARE????)
and the rest of fuz-time was spent chatting, eating, talking about eating, walking and watching wayyy too many tyra banks related shows.
good times, good times. i hope i didn't put her off and i hope she comes again with all her cuteness-a-plenti and giggles. *muah*, fuz, *muah*
today on the agenda, i have work, lunch with beej, gym and bigD's in the evening for telly (he got cable) and cups of tea. last time, last saturday in fact, i went to D's i managed to broke a chair doing the truffle shuffle XD this time i might attempt to smash a window by doing that emilio estevez scream from the breakfast club.
oh and i didn't even tell you...i'm going to see The Police in september!!!!! *wets self* when we was lil me and my 2 mates divvied up the "boys" and i remember H got Sting, i got Stewart Copeland and we forced A to have Andy Summer ('cause in our 13-year-old eyes he was a short-arse and minging). then i was outrageously in loooooove with Andy about a year later (still am) and desperate to write slash-fic about Sting and Stewart (had a known at the time what slash-fic even was) and also still totally loving Stewart because he was an obnoxious brat and really, really, REALLY annoyed Sting. ahhhh...thems was the days. so, as you can tell, this concert means the world to me. fuck Sting, i'm there for Andy and Stew and the good olde days of me and H hanging out. bring on the guitar solo on So Lonely!
for now, "i give up, my face is in the butter..."

ohgodohgodohgod...busybusybusy.
about 2 weeks ago i had a fabulous idea about posting in my LJ every day, no matter how insignificant my day had been. "i could post funny links if nothing else!!"
yes, so...that's been going...really well...
in exciting news: ronsoftie is coming to visit on sunday for 4 days!! *does bunnyhops a la that adam green dude* we will go to places on the tube! we shall watch television! we intend to see a motion picture at the movie house! (fuz, how does "Music&Lyrics" sound? don't die of shock - i'm interested in it. my brain doesn't know why) i'm dragging her to a pub quiz! (which is not a quiz on pubs ;) it'll be heaven. HEAVEN, i tell you!
enough shouting.
pokernight on saturday. i'm going to clean up. and talking about Arsenal is banned for 7 days and 7 nights...i'm pissed off.

so how bad would the adverts in the lj plus model look? i like the IDEA of 15 user pics but do i really need them?
i also want a new layout for my journal. something with gene hunt.
hey, it snowed today! and the trains were fucked. and no one could get to work. and schools had to close. this country is hilarious when it comes to snow. i went to the park in the afternoon and it was pretty. was hoping to see some birdies but no luck :(
doublehey, i'm going to see peter tork this weekend (for those who wanted to know...*points at ronsoftie*). the lovely mim is coming with me, bless her..so i'll have someone to chat to. and she'll enjoy it, i'm sure. i'm not hopping in excitement but i'm expecting to at least have a good time. and get some piccies for the wider monkeefandom out there. it's almost like i'm doing it out of duty...wtf?
tripleheyomgi'msoexcitedi'mgoingtovomit, Life On Mars starts again on tuesday!!!! *hyperventilates* this slash-tastic radio times cover makes the short wait only more unbearable. yet it also makes everything just...better. there really should be some malesnogging going on there to be fair...
and LOST kicks off on sunday too. EEP. i didn't even mention that weird thing when...( spoiler-moment )
is it wrong to care this much about television...?

i'm so fucked off.
when i was about 13 i adored S.E Hinton's books (Tex was always a fave) and read them all over and over again. then i saw that fecking film based on The Outsiders. nevermind, i saw a lot of crap films when i was younger (License To Drive, anyone?) and i thought that it was all behind me...you know, GONE.
today i was at waterstone's and in the 'recommended' section sat a copy of The Outsiders. i was overwhelmed by sudden nostalgia and thought that: yes, i'll have that, it's been over 15 years since i last read it and i really really want to read it again.
not good. 3 pages into it and all i can imagine is C.Thomas Howell as ponyboy and, even worse, Patrick Swayze as derry. i'm too afraid to look up who played Sodapop (my favourite character) because at least that is ONE thing i have managed to erase from my mind. although i have an ominous feeling it was emilio estevez...:/
and really, i don't feel like reading a book where whenever one of the characters appears, i get a mental image of that freak, tom cruise.
i can never go back.

ooooh, beckham.
that's all i really wanted to say about it. i think it needed saying.
marystmatthew THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! *muah* i am embarrased to say i only made it to the post office to pick up a few overdue xmas packages today and yours was one of them. you shouldn't have, you sausage...i have devoured the choccie and played with the frog. *satisfied smile*
god, january takes it out of you, doesn't it? i could literally just sleep and sleep and then wake up for a couple of hours and then sleep again. i think it's some kind of animal instinct left in us and it's telling us to hibernate. i'd would just love to do that. been trying to be very good and have been going to the gym and playing badminton to have a bit more energy. it didn't seem to be working this morning :/
or maybe it's because there's constantly something happening...which is good i suppose. otherwise, i'd be here moaning about nothing happening. mand's bday on saturday which i'm very much looking forward to. i get to wear The Fab Shoes mr80s bought me. yes! he bought me shoes!! shoooooooooooooooes. free shoooooooooooooooes. i'm so shallow. to be honest, that's about the best thing about mr80s at the moment. i'm kind of fed up. we seem to argue a lot these days and i'm not even bothered or moved by that. i just shrug my shoulders and get on with it. i don't know...i can't really decide what it is and, like i said, i definitely have my customary January Blues so nothing i feel/think can be taken that seriously. we'll see.
for some reason i bought TWO tickets for peter tork. now i have to convince someone to buy the other one off me. so far there has been a distinct lack of interest. as in "who the f**k is peter tork!?". also, going to see him is a bit like going through to motions...it's like an old friend with whom you've got nothing in common anymore but because they're in town, you go and meet up with them. you're not that excited about it because what you shared at 16 has looooong gone but hey, you've got history so of course you're going to show up. plus, peter's private persona has really suffered in my eyes from all the bs stories i've heard of him. so much so that when he does a meet and greet, i might just have to kick him in the bollocks...;)
i'll probably end up having a fab time. plus, it'll be good to spot some mlanders in the crowd.
aside from that i have a visit from my mum and dad to look forward to at the start of feb, mim's 30th bday PARTAY at the end of feb, our contract on this flat runs out start of march which means i can move out on my own again (which is fecking amazing!) and then ronsoftie is coming to visit me! :D ohhappydaiz.
oh and Arsenal Are Faaaaaaantastic.

seeing as my last two posts were random vince vaughn jabberings (not that i mind such conversations in general), it's probably best to stick something on here. devoid of any of desire to actually write my life up in proper words and sentences, i will make, as is customary, A LIST.
things that make me go "yay!"
1. next weekend out in the sticks (ok, portsmouth) in some manky club downing more shots than i should.
2. this t-shirt - which i absolutely want for my birthday.
3. come to think of it, my birthday and downing more shots etc.
4. the US mid-term election result (why not state the obvious when one can).
5. the cold weather because it means i can wear thick, black tights.
6. seeing We Are Scientists last thursday in brixton.
7. Mr 80s.
8. the tenacious d film.
things that make me go "meh..."
1. NaNoWrimo stress.
2. my birthday.
3. the cold weather and this fcking freezing flat.
4. my brother and his "issues".
5. the warm-up band for We Are Scientists last thursday in brixton.
6. the way i feel that i am being constantly judged for my relationship by my friends which makes me resent them even though i am smart and old enought to know that it's really ME judging MYSELF.
7. what i just wrote in number 6. i'm an anus.
8. food that i cannot stop eating.
right, i'm off to buy "gym pants".
