Elocution
Posted on 20 August 07
I know, I’ve been dead for a long time, but it’s a very long story and I don’t have time to explain it now. Will explain ASAP.
Everything feels very rushed and pressured, but I’ll try and dabble in sitely stuff when I can. Also, for those of you who are icon!lovers, I made a whole bunch of new icons at Avant-Garde. I haven’t actually written the update yet, but I will get around to it. I’ve just done a lot of uploading.
A bit random but: I love WordPress. I love Wordpress. Why did it take me so long to Convert?!
And also: On the news one of our politicians was seen going to a strip club XD. We were watching it and Gerald snorted and Dad clapped and cheered loudly. Mum rolled her eyes and said “He’s just living vicariously through him,”.
This will be a little awkward, but I just wanted to thank all you darling muffins for being so, er, tolerant I suppose of my unexplained absense. To comment rotation peoples: If I had known that I would be away for a long time, I do declare I would have put them all on hold etc. It was sudden.
Song I am currently in love with: Andrew Bird- Fake Palindromes.
And a picture, because I also like looking at it. Although I’m not completely addicted to it or anything.

Goodbyeeeee!

Birthday
Posted on 14 July 07
Nothing much to say, except happy birthday to my darling of a mother, aka The Coolest Lady Of The Planet! Woo. I won’t tell you how young (Read: Old) she’s turning, because she would probably disembowel me for revealing he age on the world wide intarwebz.
Today is also the last day of my two week school holidays :(. But, I did manage to do all the stuff outlined in that list I made a few entries ago. I want to write more, but I don’t have much time since rels are coming over and we’re having a Mum-birthday party! Yay. It always means lots of Indian sweets and yummy curries. Heh.
I’m tired.
Also: I’ve rediscovered someone fantastic deep in the bowels of my music folders! Róisín Murphy. I know you’re probably Really Really Tired of me plugging all these different musicians, but for anyone who likes electronica/danceable music, you should check her out. What I love about it is that she doesn’t use headache inducing beats; it makes me think of spring. Has a very light, lovely sound. One of my favourites is Night Of The Dancing Flame. It was on So You Think You Can Dance? all that time ago. I actually loved that show, unlike most reality TV which I usually hate hate hate.
Aaaand, I’m also in love with this song (Patrick Wolf! Eee!): This Weather. I posted it before, but I doubt anyone downloaded it. If you do download any of those two, I’d really like to know what you think. :)
One of the many things I loved about seeing John Mayer in concert is that now, everytime I listen to a song that he played then, I vividly remember him playing that song at the concert. Like, for example, I have a studio version of Bigger Than My Body and he played that at the concert. So when I listen to it, I more often than not hear the brilliantly crunchy, hungry guitar instead of the toned down one (Compared to him playing it live) in the studio version. Oh, he is so amazing live. So. Much. Love! ♥ Bigger Than My Body is one of my favourite ‘pre-Continuum’ songs. And he played it! He also played 3 x 5 which is, for diehard fans, a Really Big Deal. Just… Mmm! Eee! He played It! *Floordead* I think I died when he started playing it. And then I went to heaven when he got to the chorus. Today I finally overcame/Trying to fit the world inside a picture frame.
I better stop my fangirly ramblings before I make someone nauseous, so.
Okaaaay, zat ees all. Au revoir!
