-next monday is the deadline for articles for the next edition of lifelines but i'm feeling very uninspired. to be honest, i've not felt very inspired with the blog for a long time. the only thing i can think about doing is 'song of songs - the high school years', after i watched some smallville the other day. it'd be a bit like the oc, with the lover & beloved at high school (obviously), & the devil would be like an evil rival love interest, a bit like oliver from the first series of the oc, & he'd start out all charming & nice but turn out to be a bit of a psycho nutter. don't really know what to do with it though. it's not a very good idea, more of a concept really.
-scratching. i like it when you have an itch & you give it a really good scratch. i thought this the other day as i gave my tired eye a good rub. sometimes i'll hold off scratching it just to make it all the more satisfying when i do.
-i have continued my new-found consumer watchdoginess from few posts down. i ordered this tshirt here yonks ago. they said it'd take up to 4 weeks but it's already been about 7 so i emailed to find out what's going on (stuck in customs apparently) & they're giving me a 30% discount. i then also emailed amazon after being told the new jazzanova remixes album i ordered at the beginning of the year wasn't going to to be sent for another month at least, so i told them that was rubbish so they said, here, have £5, so i thought, lovely. they probably didn't do anything in response to my thinking lovely.
-lent has started. whenever people ask what i'm giving up, i say caring. an old joke, i've been saying this for years now but someone still laughs at it every year so i'll keep saying it till people stop laughing &tell me to shut up.
The bit about you holding off itching your eye so it's more satisfying made me laugh outloud cos that's just weird.

ReplyDeleteI tried to post yesterday but the word verification picture was one of those pictures with just a little cross in the corner to show there should be a picture. This is where the technology fails.
hey I love reading your blog dan. I like the things you think to blog. makes me feel connected to sheffield too, somewhere down near your flat and that terrible one-way system they put in. aaah.
