Hey All,
Hey Everyone,
I forgot to mention this: on Thursday, as I was finishing a Robin Hobb novel that shall go unnamed (message me if you want to hear me rant about how good it was), just for fun I switched on the TV.
A little bit of sound-off channel surfing later, I found this animal doco about the cats that live in the roman ruins in the centre of Rome. It had their power struggles between the alpha males, them going hunting for food (both the kind that flies in, and the kind you find in rubbish bags outside cafes), it had them having kittens and raising litters etc. It gave all the recurring cat characters names.
Sound Familiar?
It was exactly like Big Cat Diary, only it was Stray Cat Diary.
Trippy.
In the time since the last post, I haven't really come any further in my conundrum, but that's okay.
Last night: I meant to go to Dead and Buried for a little while then reconvene at Electrowerks for Overkill II, but I wound up sticking around at D&B till the end. D&B, by the way, total Old School Goth. Any more Old School Goth and Siouxsie Sioux would have been in the corner sharing needles with Nick Cave.
Though it was located in the student club of a University Campus in Islington, giving a weird resonance to my impressions that Gothic Clubs are like High School Socials where everyone dresses in Black.
Some friends of mine were there, and it was fun to see people doing the Two-Step again, even if they didn't make lines.
Afterwards me and some friends got some chips at a kebab place and then caught two buses to get home.
I got up at onePM (pretty early considering I got in at six) and ripped the three cds I bought at the Virgin Sale (£5 each) to MP3 (the Smiths, Primal Scream and Blood Has Been Shed). The Primal Scream was a bit weak, but the other two are good.
I also ironed all the shirts I washed yesterday, read some of the Elric Book I bought last Sunday (pleasantly self deprecating in tone... and a good example of writing from multiple viewpoints, something Robin Hobb also does, a lot).
After that I fired up Cubase on the laptop and played around with the gabba thing I started a week ago, slowing it down and turning it into a Rhythmic Noise nightmare. I also discovered that my speakers can be used a microphones even though they are plugged into the headphone jack. Weird.
Anyways, time for me to roll out (and the spacebar on this terminal is really pissing me off).
More news tomorrow.
Over and Out.
