Yeah, Yeah, I know...
I've been neglecting my evil empire in Blogland.
I've been busy, okay.
And disorganized.
And last night I was putting the finishing touches on that I Killed the Prom Queen show review.
The review I actually got sorted pretty quickly, and though it was over three pages written longhand, it actually came in nicely under 700 words.
What took the time was actually getting it up onto the Faster Louder site for their approval.
Hmm. I hope it went through. There is some kind of weird system of adding attributes so that stuff can be cross referenced for the purposes of databasing or some such. What it really serves to do is give frazzled contributors like me a headache, as we try to navigate a system that has no visible relation to any skill we've honed as writers.
Not to be dissing your system, Monika, I just find it hard to Parse when I'm running out of time in the net cafe.
Dad called from The Isle of Wight this morning. We're going to hook up on Tuesday.
The new flatmate, a Swede with a Balkan name, is apparently moving in proper some time this week.
After I finish here I'm going to get changed to go dancing at Strength Through Joy.
Other news from my light-on-blogging week:
My mother tells me that my brother Gus is moving to Sydney for a Microsoft job soon.
Nice.
Apparently Elea is moving there soon too.
Cool.
I went the the Devonshire Arms in Camden on Thursday night for the fortnightly Spite night that some of the writers from Terrorizer run.
Met some kids from Poland, a post-graduate law-student wearing a bullet-belt, and also ran into my friend Alistair, a DVD producer/Televisual Media dude from Sydney who is heading back there sometime in the next twelve days. He's pretty cool.
Richie from Terrorizer turned up later. Chatted to him. All good.
I wound up leaving somewhere around half eleven.
Friday night I just wound up chilling at home.
Also: I've re-started my long overdue reading of the Transmetropolitan Comic trade paperbacks (I lulled for no good reason. It would take too long to explain.)
And damn it's good.
Speaking of which, I followed my nose from the Warren Ellis site to this designer:
http://www.rblack.org/
Whose style I dig.
In any case, I am about to be turfed out of here again.
Over and out.
