I'm heading for the bright lights of Johannesburg in about half an hour. It's always nice to get out of the sticks for a bit. So that's my weekend. Who knows what could happen! Madness I tell you!!
Wear - my clothes make me feel bored. I'm not going to make you suffer too.
Email - Suppliers in Cape Town crapping on about outstanding orders.
Listen - Dunno. I've been listening to the Rolling Stone Magazine top 500 songs of all time recently. It's okay. Lots of variety I suppose.
posted
On - White vans, M&S Wool rich ribbed cotton socks (beige), black jeans, black vans belt with checkerboard motif buckle, white stussy t-shirt, knackered old denim jacket
Off - Might go and watch the Watchmen at the Barbican tonight. Back Home and drink some wine as off Beer for Lent. Saturday is official Baby due day so might spend it covered in blood and shit.
E Mail - sure thing no problem McDirts, we'll get some top level ideas based around the budget options to you for tuesday as requested to pass on and wow the client.
i'll give you a call with any questions in the meantime.
cheers, ___________
LP - New mix tape I've done in a bid to ensure my young lady is suitably relaxed when she gives birth. Track listing as follows for all you fans of relaxing - Chillaxtasy Vol I by McDirts

Wearing - Blue Jeans, Light Blue War of the Worlds T-shirt. Stripy jumper. Black Boots.
Weekend - Friends coming round for Sunday lunch so cooking then. Probably watching some rugby.
Last e-mail - Someone for some reason copied me into a Spanish e-mail they sent that is absolutely nothing to do with me. Something to do with skating
quote: Buenas tardes
con el fin de mejorar en el proceso que se esta desarrollando con los niρos en el area de patinaje se penso en buscar otro espacio para el entrenamiento de alli nace la idea de desplazarnos en varias fechas de este semestre para la pista de patinaje ubicada en la unidad deportiva maria luisa calle (por el club el rodeo cerca del aeropuerto olaya herrera) y la pista de la liga de patinaje en el estadio, para este jueves 12 de marzo, tendremos el primer entrenamiento en pista de maria luisa calle, los niρos salen de su jornada academica normalmente a las 3:10 y nos ubicaremos en la buseta que nos transportaran hasta el lugar de entreno, el cual comenzara a las 4: 00 pm hasta las 5:00pm donde los padres deberan recogerlos en la pista.
todo esto se hace con el fin de que los chicos mejoren en sus habilidades en el patinaje y aumenten su capacidad de responsabilidad y disciplina que no solo les sirve para el deporte sino para la vida.
LES PIDO ENCARECIDAMENTE SI DESEAN QUE SUS HIJOS VALLAN AL ENTRENAMIENTO DE ESTE JUEVES EN LA PISTA PORFAVOR DEVOLVERME ESTE CORREO CON SU RESPUESTA Y SINO AVISAR EN EL COLEGIO PARA PODER CONSEGUIR EL TRANSPORTE ACORDE CON EL NUMERO DE NIΡOS, IGUALMENTE ESTE LUNES SE LES ENVIARA UNA CIRCULAR LA CUAL DEBEN ENVIAR CON SU FIRMA DE AUTORIZACION. NO OLVIDEN QUE ES DE SUMA IMPORTANCIA EL CASCO COMO MINIMO PARA MANTENER LA SEGURIDAD DE LOS CHICOS.
MUCHAS GRACIAS POR SU ATENCION
JOHANA PEREZ GOMEZ
Listening - Downloaded some acoustic stuff yesterday. A bit of Stone Temple Pilots, some Nirvana, some Eric Clapton. Very good.

Tonight, gym followed by tidying up. Dishes need doing as well. Laundry. Suicide. Seeing Michael the Television tomorrow. Sunday, not sure. A friend is in town, maybe a pint. I don't know.
week
A grim week. Been at home for most of it though, which has been a plus, I suppose.
email
work - some 'technical review guidelines' that I will never read.
personal - registration confirmation for ups.com
listen
I've been listening to GZA and biggie this week. And the top gun soundtrack.
film
I watched 'oasis of the zombies' last night. Not brilliant. I downloaded 10gigs of Overfiend material last week that I'm looking forward to watching when my xbox comes back. I'd also like to watch 'Anvil' but it's not showing at the cinemas that I get a monthly pass for. Annoying.
lunch
I don't know. I'm thinking of loading up on porridge and banana, skipping lunch, and then maybe some pasta around 5pm. I probably won't report back on what happens here.

I forgot about lunch. I have three options.
Go to canteen and get selection of vegetables for about £1.20. Healthy and financially wise.
Go to pub for pint and a thai. About £8 total. Less financially wise but tastier. Would also bet on the weekend football while doing that so may win £50. (I wouldn't)
Fry up - £6.10. Definitely not healthy but quite tasty.
I'm now eating porridge, fyi. And my most recent email has changed. It is now an email from a friend, organizing some kind of group activity, headed "yay for everybody except steven!"

So... got your heart set on a gay?
Piss off. That's some good shit on there. I bet you just fixated on the Magic Numbers didn't you? THere's a couple on there that are there because I know the young lady likes them (wouldn't necesarrily be my choice) but the majority are bona fide winners. It doesn't all have to be about hippity hop and AC/DC you know. Tchoh.

She loves a bit of massed voices singing action as well. The old Soul choir type action as well as any other bits of harmonising. I'm in the process of working that one through at the moment. Any thoughts on tracks that utilise choir type singing. (yes, yes, polyphonic spree is noted already)

wearing: striped sweatpants and blue t-shirt the color of the nursing pillow case, so I might have to change (or have baby clawing at me all day).
weekend: Saturday - shooting headshots all day for ten-year-olds w/Broadway aspirations. Sunday - computer work and watching kids so froopy can work on car/house/California job applications.
breakfast (lunch too far off): probably a pop tart since I'm out of my usual animal crackers (adds BJs store run to the weekend list).
email: clients buying their files from my going out of business sale, so much needed $$

There's a bit of a balls up with that. Pia doesn't have a set of keys to get in the flat when she comes back tomorrow, so I'm gonna need to call her. I mean, 4pm is just the perfect time to interrupt hanging out. gmail me pimp

I left her there in the afternoon and when I came back she was trying to sell the lead lining from the roof to a local scrap metal merchant. I smacked my rolled up copy of the Metro on the merchant's donkey's hind and sent it cantering up the street dropping pots and pans all over the road. The merchant dashed off chasing the cart and I shot Pia a look. She just looked sheepish that she'd been caught out and stubbed the concrete with her foot.
