Being back at work TODAY goddamitt. The train ride back in to London last night was exquisitely saddening.

Jonnie, Wednesday, 2 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

finshed re-reading lord of the rings the other day and came v. close to blubbing like a baby. when in 2003 in the film version the tiny little Elijah Wood and Iam Holm get on that ship i am going to be *inconsolable*.

katie, Wednesday, 2 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

um, inconsolable in an elegant and exquisite way, natch. on second thorts, maybe not elegant - i can't look all that elegant with big red puffy eyes and a streaming nose, blubbing like a fule over FICTIONAL CHARACTERS.

katie, Wednesday, 2 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Closer, Joy Div. Where have they been? repeat until fade...

Kikujiro.

Every time I saw footage of Sydney celebrating the new year my eyes welled up. I still don't know why.

Mark C, Wednesday, 2 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Ah, that'll be the onion jugglers of Wallamalloo.

Trevor, Wednesday, 2 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

babs singing the way we were...

Geoff, Wednesday, 2 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Same as Gareth, actually. Chiz. I must need brane surgery.

Sarah, Wednesday, 2 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

that album is sad

mike hanle y, Wednesday, 2 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

First track off the album referred to in the title of the thread. Most exquisite. Late period Swans also does the trick.

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 2 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Feeling small and insignificant.

james, Wednesday, 2 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Christmas.

maria, Wednesday, 2 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Winding my way home along Mulholland last night, it was very foggy and I could ony see the lights of Hollywood and the Valley through the fog intermittently. I started thinking of Joni Mitchell, Roman Polanski, Cass Elliott, Jack and Angelica, John Holmes and all the little people down below. I'll miss LA.

Arthur, Wednesday, 2 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

God, I sound like Ryan Adams.

Arthur, Wednesday, 2 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

maybe ronan will have sex with you.

jess, Wednesday, 2 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Haw. That would be criminal.

Arthur, Wednesday, 2 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Leonard Cohen. Max Ophuls. Graduation.

Curt1s Stephens, Friday, 23 May 2008 01:58 (eighteen years ago)

i am thx guys =P just too summery. the heat gets me all energized and work is slow, so it's an odd combination.

i'm gonna buy a pack of smokes!

Surmounter, Friday, 23 May 2008 01:59 (eighteen years ago)

I stayed home from work today to just be alone for a while and ponder stuff. I'm supposed to have a great life right now yet I am gettin' sad about dumb things. The other day my bf talked about wanting to buy a house and I shot him down with "we cant afford that" and he got really upset I was all negatory, and now I feel like a tool.

Trayce, Friday, 23 May 2008 02:48 (eighteen years ago)

I mean fuck! I have a man who wants to buy a house with me! WTF is my DAMAGE.

Trayce, Friday, 23 May 2008 02:48 (eighteen years ago)

aww... u gotta have the idealist and the NOW person. my bf is already scoping out real estate! we just like, entered the workforce.

Surmounter, Friday, 23 May 2008 02:50 (eighteen years ago)

hahaha seriously xp ;)

Surmounter, Friday, 23 May 2008 02:50 (eighteen years ago)

Ya I know rite. I guess its because I'm already 37 and still on a fairly shitty wage (not minimum or anything hell, but it hasnt moved much in almost 8 years), and I never made moves to saving for a deposit, so it all seems so out of reach, I'd resigned myself to it never happening.

I always look on the dark side. I don't know why I do, and I hate myself for that.

Trayce, Friday, 23 May 2008 02:53 (eighteen years ago)

you look so young! i know, i feel like buying a house is some kind of fantasy. all i want is a basement. one day, i wanna have a basement.

Surmounter, Friday, 23 May 2008 02:55 (eighteen years ago)

LOL total aside: yesterday my boss was telling me about how he wants a giant series of basements in his house so he'd toyed with the idea of hiring a backhoe and just digging down and down til he made some kind of huge dungeon :D I loved it, it was like fantasy treehouse in reverse.

Trayce, Friday, 23 May 2008 02:57 (eighteen years ago)

so fun =)

Surmounter, Friday, 23 May 2008 02:58 (eighteen years ago)

Predictable disappointment. I did this silly test in a book and it basically transpired that I'm a hopeful pessimist.
