A few things

Ok so I wrote this over a week ago but need to blog it cause i don't know what else/can't find the words to blog atm.

- How come its cool for me to sit on a bench or a random patch of grass when I'm with someone else but if you're on your own then everyone looks at you like a weirdy/child molester?

- A lot of the time I feel like I am missing out on something else that I could be doing. If I don't feel like this then I am normally either bored, or I know 100% that I wouldn't want to be doing anything else.

- I used to enjoy my own company more than I do now. I think I need some "interaction" (interpret as you see fit).

- Should I be worried that I have NO long term plans?

- If anyone asks me what I have been up to over the past few months then my options are as follows:

a) Discovering new music

b) Trying to enjoy myself

c) Avoiding extinction

d) All of the above

- I use the word "need" more than necessary.

-I sit in a moral grey patch between caring what people think about me and not giving one. - This suits me perfectly.

- (I wrote this whole list whilst walking the streets in the dark... like a gangster... or a queer)

- What route I walk depends on my state of mind when given my options, I rarely choose the quickest.

- Sometimes, I fucking love rain.

- My opinions differ in strength depending on circumstance.

- I should spend more of my life in telephone boxes.

- fin.

Just a quick one

....that's what she said

- When I type a capital letter in the right place it makes me feel a little bit clever.

- My lip is fucking killing me but I refuse to take it out

- Bath is much cooler when you are visiting than when you live there.

- I hate not getting up till the afternoon for weeks and then the one day that I have a legimate reason for getting up in the morning I hate myself for it.

- I'm not even sure if I want to start work... part of me feels like I could do this forever.

- ..... and so the Oakley mentality kicks in.

Sulking

This evening I lay in the dark sulking and feeling sorry for myself, I now feel no better because of it and just feel like a giant dick. I lost about 2 hours of sensible day time and because i didn't wake up till about half 1 I won't be able to get to sleep tonight at all.

I would like to run away to Vancouver please.

If you're going to be stupid about this...

Please understand
This isn't just goodbye
This is I can't stand you
This is where the road crashed into the ocean
It rises all around me
And now we're barely breathing
A thousand faces we'll choose to ignore

Curse my enemies forever
Let's slit our wrists and burn down something beautiful
This desperation leaves me overjoyed
With fading lights that lead us past the lives that we destroy

I listen to you cry
A cry for less attention
But both my hands are tied
And I'm pushed into the deep end
I listen to you talk but talk is cheap
And my mouth is filled with blood
From trying not to speak
So search for an excuse
And someone to believe you
In foreign dressing rooms
I'm empty with the need to

Curse my enemies forever
Let's slit our wrists and burn down something beautiful
This desperation leaves me overjoyed
With fading lights that lead us past the lives that we destroy

Curse my enemies forever
Let's slit our wrists and burn down something beautiful
This desperation is leaving me overjoyed
With fading lights that lead us past the lives that we destroy

Please understand

Lay rotting where I fall
I'm dead from bad intentions
Suffocated and embalmed
And now all our dreams are cashed in
You swore you wouldn't lose then lost your brain
You make a sound that feels like pain

So please understand
This isn't just goodbye
This is I can't stand you

Game on.

Mark Twain

"In 20 years you will be more disappointed by what you didn't do than by what you did."

I think you should know

I like what you are thinking more than I like what I was thinking.

Now I'm thinking what you are thinking

And I like it

"Try and be alone but not lonely"

I'm having one of those moments. I honestly think I might be bipolar, I was about to type that I've had nothing fun to do and nothing to look forward to but I have had fun. The music is going well, the gig was fun and we're both writing some good stuff. I'm having some fun times with my friends like when I went to see Kinn with Hannah and seeing Simmo again now he's back from Oxford.

I think the problem could be that because I'm having a few highs it makes everything else so much worse. I feel like I need to know what the next exciting thing is, I'm hopping from event to event and my time in between is just dull and soul destroying. It is almost like dead time, nothing is happening, nothing is going to but there's only so long I can keep running on no money and this drone of a lifestyle.

I know that when I EVENTUALLY start work that I'll look back on this time and think about how much I miss it, but the thing is i don't feel free at all at the moment. I feel lonely too but that's just cause I have all this time and absolutely nothing to do in, with no one. I either need someone or something to do, but not as a one off, as a constant or just something that leads somewhere in little steps. Like if I could start my work, even if I didn't start on 40 hours a week (which part of me wants, the other hates the first half of me for even contemplating 40 hours) at least it would be progression.

It's Mothers day tomorrow, maybe I will spend the day with my Mom but I don't want to drag her down. She's like a mind reader she always know what's going down. Maybe she's a witch and I'll get a letter from Hogwarts soon? Fingers crossed eh?
