what

dang, people are still blogging on here. what to tell? have a video ipod now, have lost soul to daily downloads of zefrank's the show and repeated destruction of others' cd collections, can't even half fill the shiny little bugger. will stuff it – possibly – within the year.

hoping for the return of the moment.

working in a bookshop. enjoying the fleeting feeling of four figures in the bank. getting an ISA and all grown up, it seems.

getting free.

bye, warwick. see you occasionally at parties where we will get drunk and gush.

it's almost that time

i feel like my degree–time has just slipped away. i'm glad to see it go, and there are few precious things i'll miss.

tomorrow is results.

while i ponder that, ponder this. i'm tempted, if only to give something back to a man who provided a lot of my saturday morning entertainment when i was younger. also i like stupid t–shirts.

josie long, a lovely stand–up, did a whole routine about small things that are good. cynics breed cynics. like josie says, what are they waiting for, a prize? to get to heaven and have god give them a trophy for Not Enjoying Anything? fuck cynics, they can kiss my hole (asshole).

it is time for joy and small things that are good.

warwick blogs depresses me.

there, i said it.

in other news, tom returns from russia bringing vodka (some: triple distilled liquid platinum that i imagine tastes a little like the tears of the most royal of swans, and the other… well, lime–grass or whatever it's supposed to be tastes a lot of the latter and barely a smidge of the former. experiment with flavours, though! it's the only way to fly!). also, tom brings cheap DVDs and a singing cheburashka, which is my new love. he is holding an orange!

hm, what else. the last boosh show was electric and the people i'm meeting through the fan community are awesome. when i begin my Media Stuff next year, they're the people i'm going to be laughin' with, chattin' with and pumpin' for backstage tickets. woop.

also, and most importantly, come the reckless moment. it's an ace new comedy night run by my good buddies monte pindik and tom 'possibly son of john' hughes. the last two have been stormin', and it's totally worth the mere pound entry fee. come one, come all: robbin's well, mondays, 9pm start, 8pm doors.

yeah!
