so this weekend has been certainly interesting. sort of.

well, saturday was really good. went to leigh’s house and met all of the family. that was pretty good. her brother is a big chav but that’s ok. apparently i got off lightly, be he wasn’t so bad. i also ate delicious cakes and hash brown sandwiches. lovely. we watched dvd’s and then left earlier than usual as leigh and co. were going to a mcfly concert. haha. i had a good time, that’s what mattered.

anyway, when i finally got home, i went to liams. i was feeling ill all day, but i felt alright at liams. so i got to drinking with the gang, smoking rollies with james and having a good laugh. but i felt really sick and was sick all over liams from drive. how lovely. sorry liam! i saw them all today and they mocked me :(. i was ill though!

sunday was composed of playing ocarina of time all day. i’m just up to adult link, with like 10 hearts. i’m awesome. i was sick a few times and had a can of lager with a chav. it was quite funny.

today leigh is in manchester, at some sort of art gig. i’m just hoping i can get some credit tonight to phone her.
so lately i’ve been listening to a LOT of dntel (in case you didn’t know, dntel is jimmy tamborello from the postal service) and i’ve found a fantastic song done with why? from cLOUDDEAD, one of my favourite… i’m tempted to say hip-hop but i won’t… bands. it’s brilliant. it is called torpedo or chrons, and can be found below. give it a listen.

i’m also going to be shameless and advertise the hype machine. basically it scans blogs for music and allows you to play the songs through a flash player on the site. excellent for work or at college. it’s free but i think you might need to register to listen to songs. find it at hypem.com. i use it every day to listen to music. the song can be found here. give it a listen. yes it’s hip hop, but it’s good hip-hop! i like to think of it as hip-hope.

so today is when GUITAR HERO 3 is out. finally. i am going to go to my friends and play the fuck out of it. although he can barely do hard mode so it’ll be a bit of a drag to get him up to speed. but yes, we’re going to play co-op mode i am very excited!

in other news: i am seeing leigh tomorrow. i am more excited about this than anything! although she’s going to see mcfly (don’t ask) tomorrow too. never mind. i found this across the internet somewhere, so enjoy.  it makes me laugh everytime i see it.

speaking of which, the mighty boosh last night was EXCELLENT. it really was. although the first episode was a bit off, last night’s episode was absolutely hysterical. my hope in the mighty boosh has been restored! the next episode looks great too. never mind the buzzcocks was pretty good last night as well, not as good as last weeks but still pretty good.

one day i’ll review tv shows.

so hi, long time no see etc. not much been happening really.

i saw leigh on saturday. we met up in middlesbrough and our intentions were to go to middlesbrough’s institution of modern art. we’d arranged to meet up with a few people (louise might, richard might, cloey definitely). anyway, we scoured the town, getting lost (i don’t know middlesbrough that well, so it’s always good learning where things are) and buying things. leigh bought a peter petrelli poster and other stuff i can’t mention. i bought a slush puppie (i’m poor okay? :( ). so yeah we walked around more, and it was very cold so we often made trips into warm places. i’m guessing leigh was bored by this point, but she’s too nice to say so (though she let it slip later when i said “so you’re finally enjoying yourself?” and she agreed). we were sat knitting and eating pocky (it’s delicious) when we met up with cloey. had a nice chat then had a walk around with her and her friends until they left for the bus and we sat in milligans drinking tea trying to get warm.

we decided to go to the train station for much smooching and fondling. then she went home :(.

not much happening during the week. uhm, got drunk last night (which wasn’t too good as i didn’t get to speak to leigh much) and on the way home in the taxi i had a lovely discussion about radiohead. peter is shit and likes linkin park so we were mocking him badly. i had fun. 

well, i thought i’d make a post saying i’m getting my haircut in 20 minutes.

maybe i’ll post a picture. i don’t know.

all i do know is that i’m actually quite nervous.

also, battles on jools holland were fantastic. and i finally found out the lyrics to atlas! on battles myspace blog haha. funny stuff.

today is mine and leigh’s month anniversary. that’s right, a month. god that went past bloody fast. it’s been a great month, it really has. let’s hope there are many more to come!

so like, i haven’t been updating this as much as i’d want to. pretty much because i don’t have much to say (for once). it’s been pretty interesting lately though.

firstly, saturday i saw leigh. we went to watch 30 days of night. it was… pretty alright. i guess. it was a typical and predictable horror (though one part made me jump, only once!) but the hero dies at the end, which is pretty unusual.

speaking of films, i saw “the birds” last night. although it’s a really good film, the ending just… well, it’s awful. they just… drive off. i don’t get it. couldn’t they have at least blew the birds up or soemthing? mind, thinking about it now, it is very logical, seeing as the army was possibly being called. for birds. yeah, i did enjoy it though. hitchcock movies always interest me, this one in particular.

anyway, back to saturday. we went shopping (leigh bought me some skinny jeans, when i finally let her) and we had a really nice time. we then went to a pub in sunderland, where i met some new people and got bought a legal pint! which was all good. then i had to go home, which wasn’t all good.

the night i just got drunk. you know how it is.

i am now however ill. my friend lydon is making sure i don’t die, which is good. last night i just stayed in for once. yeah.

i’m running out of things to say. something you might like is that i’m actually using categories again. that’s good.

so some guys on DrownedinSound are all working together to make a collaboration CD about giant isopods. and i’m in. i’m going to do a rap song about them, under my new rapper name “OK Kid” (it’s dicko backwards). it’s going to be estupendical, though i’m probably going to use college equipment for it.

that’s the thread. it’s going to be pretty fucking awesome.

this weekend has been literally great. i went to see leigh again, and we just spent the day watching DVD’s and such. but i had a really great time. it’s her birthday this thursday! it’s also my friend liam’s on wednesday. hmm.

wow, um, yeah.

so halloween. i got incredibly drunk. i don’t remember too much of it, but i woke up soaking wet and i have no idea how.

i went to university hungover, that was quite awful.

and i am going to see leigh tomorrow.

short but sweet.
