raaaaaaa


i've adopted a new scarf, stolen from my mum, which i like to think makes me look like rupert the bear. it smells like wet barbecues and dogs, so naturally i love it. i'd also like to note that i don't like the casino brawl, the sticker was stolen from someone, and is there as a trophy, not because i like them. i haven't even heard them. are they good? i'm going to check.
i don't think they will be.
ANYWAY
before my awesome scarf, what was i going to say?
oh yeah, i read 'the virgin suicides' by jeffrey eugenides, and it was really good. like really really good. even though i felt a sense of general malaise after reading it, i still liked it. i think it's going to be a fairly important book to me. next up - middlesex by same author, and atlas shrugged by ayn rand.
minor annoyance - the runaways has no release date for the uk. this is a bit of a gutter since i've been looking forwards to complaining about kristen stewart ruining joan jett's good name. i assumed since it's had a lot of publicity it would be out over here, but that would be too easy. now i'll have to wait and wait and read everyone elses reviews while i wait.
can't wait - growing and trimming and not dyeing my hair so that eventually i can bleach it and be blaaaawnd again. it's pretty good at the moment, a relatively natural colour, and also of human hair consistency which it usually isn't. the roots look a bit dirty though, the colour it is is warmer than my natural mouse brown, so the roots look especially lank and greasy.. sexy times.
oh and i have a leeds ticket! that's right, i'm finally repealing my opinion on leeds fest and the bad name i've given it, and i'm scooting on down, because motherfucking HOLE ARE PLAYING. HOLE. HOLE. HOLE HOLE FUCKING HOLE. i'm so super psyched. courtney love in the flesh. i might make a sign, but that would be a bit sad. i'm definitely making a little leeds fur costume though, like the one i wore at the worlds end gallery. so that'll be nice. i had to be convinced to go though, since i hate camping, crowds, and most people. but either way, i'll be there.
currently listening to - cat power and the breeders and annie. good mix.
i'm going to go and buy cheap things off amazon yet again, so good times. might update writing a little bit later, feeling like i might have some good ideas.

  3. i am going to have to because being blonde is my major ambition at the moment. sorry dude.
    i am going to leeds with sole intention on seeing hole, i got into them when i was about 13 and in my punk rock thirteen year old girl stage. i still like them now, and have done consistently for five years. if you want to listen to them, go to their website and listen to their new single for free, or their myspace. i can honestly say that courtney love is forty five and kicking ass.

  5. i just bought their album
    they were 2 for £10 in hmv so i got live through this and my girlfriend got celebrity skin, but she forgot to take it home, so i have them both.
    i listened to live through this before and it was good, i'm on my 4th listen of celebrity skin (i cant be bothered to go change the cd) and i really like it. awful is the best so far, i think.
    when's the blonde gonna happen?
    and how do you know that hole are playing leeds? its not on the poster, have they self-confirmed or something?
    and i saw you like sonic youth too - i bought goo just before christmas cause because i liked the album cover i was gonna get another today, but they only had goo in stock, which sucked.

  6. haha cd nicker. that's typical though i used to work in hmv and the whole time i was there there were no hole cd's in the 2 for 10 but as soon as i leave, whammo.
    actually i was told by my boyfriend, who i think either made it up to get me to go, or has imagined it because i can't actually remember seeing them confirmed anywhere.
    and yeah, sonic youth are ace. they're really good tidying music too, which is a plus. my shredded shitty old sonic youth teeshirt is my favourite thing ever.
    i'm leaving my hair to grow a bit before i bleach it because otherwise it'll fall out and i'll be sad. so i won't be blonde for a while, but i want to be before leeds i think.
    longest comment EVER.
