6:30 pm - a slight change of schedule.
only a handful of people knew about my first livejournal. it was deleted after 6 months to be replaced by this one.
my third and fourth livejournals are communities.
my fifth livejournal is private.
my sixth livejournal replaces my second livejournal, as of today. this journal will not be deleted, and will continue to have back-dated entries added.

you have been placed into 3 categories:

1) i have met you, and spent a moment or more in your company during the last year or so. you have been added to the friends list of lj #6.

2) i greatly enjoy reading your journal, but don't want you to feel obliged to read mine. you have not been added to the friends list of lj #6, yet. if you would like to read lj #6, please add [info]tawedog and you will be added back. you will be added after a week either way.

3) i would like to continue reading your journal, however you either don't post often and/or what you post is personal to a life i am no part of, and therefore is of limited interest. you may add lj #6, but you may not be added back.

there is no reason for this. it's just something to do.
thankyou for your understanding :)

p.s.
willaston.org email is having a few issues. please don't email me for at least 24 hours.

thank god that's all over. voting against someone doesn't work, it's proved again.

clinton vs schwarzenegger should be much more interesting.

2:15 pm - some things
today, work's too busy. there's far too little time to do things like not work.

the clocks went back. darkness looms earlier. survived halloween, pretended i wasn't in and the polish people downstairs dealt bewildered with knife-weilding youngsters.

friday night at nation, adam f on a superclub sound system massaging the bowels in the most pleasurable ways. research indicated that black people are more likely to be dealers than people who wear hats. uh-oh no bags, let's keep them in my mouth. then everything went a bit wobbly and we ended up at quiggins at 4am with bewildered house boys and orange slices.

the calidonia has actual cats on the bar. there need to be more animals in drinking places.

pheasant is really tasty, i've found.

ah-choo.

12:02 pm - get well soon...
this is without a doubt my new favourite photograph:

i should probably explain that the photo posted yesterday was scanned from a slide i found in my grandparent's attic. it was taken by my grandmother in 1972. it's her birthday today. there's a giant wooden cat sitting under my desk.

last night, while writing, i found myself describing rude things. which has never happened before - i'm usually such a prude. it's all very confusing.

spending all day talking to utterly defeated people is getting really tiring. i'm finding that i don't have a caring nature.

the 53d bus stopped at the lights, and i looked to my left.
across the mersey, i saw the cammell laird buildings and thought. what's going to happen to half man half biscuit?

EDIT: look's like someone's going to have to kill them.

12:23 pm - everyone wants their own ragtag militia.


james was saying the other day how he thinks white earphones are one of the best marketing gimmicks of recent times. could it be that the massive surge in UK sales of previously unseen nissan/toyota monster trucks in the past year is due to clever product placement?

4:00 pm - a vague plan
depart 1st feb. it can be done very cheaply. travel comes to less than £90 in total. maybe take a tent? i think i'm falling in love with the president of belarus.

4:47 pm - easyinternetcafe
a) it's always said that the turner prize is shit. now i know first hand, that it is.

b) i have so many bruises in so many places.

c) warsaw, £6.99 each way, sounds like fun.

d) i never want to travel on another train again. (unless it's going through manchester. i love looking out the window at 4 storey level, winding through the semi-highrise city.)

7:14 pm - today, we went paintballing.
i'll spare you elaborate tales of epic public transport journeys to soggy wilderness, and the return trip with mud-caked volleys.

here's the pictures, starring [info]almostkat, [info]hawley84, [info]agnte, and [info]willaston:

i find race and religion endlessly fascinating. am quite obsessed with the way people judge each other. and the way people can be judged. we're very intrusive in our collection of information at work, so wandering around the job database can be quite interesting.

i'm glad i'm not sticking around. this is the kind of job i could do quite well in. and that would just be depressing.

look, some ducks!




& i'd just like to say G'DAY! to the DW&P's internet traffic monitoring office in Sheffield!

(p.s. why do i have a headache? i never get headaches.)

most people in my office work only 4 days a week, having friday off.

each friday a random lonely member of staff will bring in a random gurgling child-type relation to show off.

ray's mate's kid just hit his head on my desk. he cried lots. i was going to stab him in the eyes with my biro, but decided against it at the last minute.

i have a headache!

10:54 am
last night i'd hoped to get to sleep early. just as i was drifting off, however, housemate keiran came home demanding to be fellated while listening to nirvana. his girlfriend apparently didn't feel up to the task and yapped like a chihuahua for an hour or so about how keiran needs to grow up and stop "taking her for a knobhead". it all calmed down about 2am and all was quiet. then at 3:30am i was woken to Smells Like Teen Spirit accompanied by keiran's raucous laughter. chihuahua girl didn't find it funny and things started being thrown smashed and broken around the house, amongst further yapping accusations of knobheadedness.

i don't understand why keiran has such an annoying girlfriend when he's much more into boys.

10:38 am - rain rain go away
the number 48 bus does not go the same way as the 55. late for work, but did get to see MASSSIVE CLAWS grabbing HUGE LUMPS from a GIANT MOUNTAIN OF RUSTED METAL and throwing them into the hold of a MAMMOTH SHIP, which was pretty ace. the 5 year old boy sitting in front thought so, too.

and here is the inspiring view from my office window:



and newly extracted from the bowels of the new digicam...
