sun, sun, sun

just a quick update on the goings on of this blog. since it went screwy for the a couple of days. yup, i left the template page up for too long and someone (namely a 12 y/o girl hell bent on pissing me off) came in and tamper tamper...and since i don't visit my own blog i didn't realise till yesterday. good time to purge my links! changed a couple around, added good old stereogum etc etc.
got rid of site meter too. i know the numbers, it just got depressing.

mid semester essay time. can feel my life force ebbing away one theorist at a time. i should really do some of the readings during the semester. but that doesn't leave enough time for all the crap TV i watch, which contributes to my course donnit?

at this point i would just like to say Rock to Rave? the most pointless subject ever. a whole tute spent talking about where you stand at a gig relates to how you interact with the music. NOOOoo. i'm seriously uncomfortable around people who talk about linkin park like that, seriously, stop it.

and there's a lot of movie reviews waiting to be written, just haven't gotten around to it yet, need a solid block of time to churn them all out. and i feel an entire post dedicated to Scarlett Johansson coming on, it really hasn't been mentioned enough, just how sexy this woman is. i want to buy the matchpoint dvd just so i can watch her smoke and lick her lips over and over again... very ditzy star crush coming from here.




what's left? oh the fives...ok ok

5 things i could really do without right now:

1. the three bags of chips i bought for "provisional purposes" coming up stairs with me willing me to open them, damn you sour cream and chives, damn you to hell!
2. the little blue dot next to my podcasts telling me i haven't listened to them yet
3. my throttled net speed (yeah turns out we're down to dial-up speed because we've netted up to 30 gigs this month, just me and a little 18 y/o girl who really shouldn't be THAT interested in porn, freaked me out too. ok maybe not so much porn.)
4. mum all of a sudden trying to be the good mother and coming in every couple of hours ladened with food asking me "how the essay writing is going?" so i have to cover up whatever it was i was doing and tell her, "yup, just one more to go!"
5. writing these damn lists.


oh and i planned out this whole geeky post on Apple's 30th but now i think it'll be better placed in my cybersocieties essay rather than this blog, shall increase the interest factor of both, i think. And plus, they didn't release anything, so happy 30th you old hag (poo poo to you too)

my computer needs rebooting. i need rebooting. can't find the damn button.

on loop: Sun, sun, sun The Elected

sun, sun, sun, stay with me
don't go behind the clouds
I know that you'll go down
but while it's day, let your light hit me
cause if I lose you now
I fear I could bow out
and I don't know where I'm going to
when I get there, i'll send for you
and I'll know when i see it, but
be patient, I swear, I'll come through

so ride, ride, ride, ride your pony
but please don't ride him far
no, stay within the yard
it played out just like you told me
I'd scratch your pretty eyes
I'll put out those little lights
but your heart, I did not break it, no
it was taken from you years ago
and the hole those older men pulled it through
it's still aching
let's be patient, you'll pull through
you'll pull through
pull through
won't you?

and I've made
I've made up for my mistakes
cause of the pain of what I'd caused
can't be shit next to what I have lost
and I hated being fucking patient
so you waited
you waited
you waited
but I never ever came to

so sun, sun, sun
what are you doing?
you went behind the clouds
but all the rain came down
my old house is in ruins
if you would come out again
and dry up all the rain
then I'd climb right up again
like that spider in that nursery rhyme
and these tales, well they're not meant to
but it's time that we make them, come true
come true
come true
for me and you
