- I want to see

3:08 pm

An industrial accident on the set of a "no win no fee" lawyer advert which sees the actors sue the fuck outta lawyers4you or whoever.

Although in reality they'd sue the film making type people.

- Kept quiet about this:

1:18 pm

The dad of these girls is someone I've known well for 13 years. I've known the girls since they were teeny tiny things. I'm seething at the pathetic sentance imposed on this 'person'.

Anyone in the vacinity up for doing something tomorrow or Thursday? Drop me a line :)

- Meh

1:55 pm

Well I'm running out of Cheeks to turn
You've taught a lesson that I'll slowly learn
I shouldn't put all my faith
in something which made my heart burn

Am I really that forgettable
or is the past just too regrettable
I should've known better
My love is not returnable

- The worst thing about journaling your feelings

2:28 pm

Is that to say what I'm thinking here would annoy and upset other people. I'm not selfish enough to do that.

So to quote Faith No More:

I'll just keep my mouth shut ...
It shouldn't bother me
But it does

(I got 5 lovers!! | Am I special?)


- Sing it with me bitches

4:38 am

All you old skool gamers, sing along:

War has never been so much fun
War has never been so much fun
War has never been so much fun
War has never been so much fun


Go to your Brother
Kill him with your gun
Leave him lying in his unifom
Dying in the sun.





Good times good times.

Jools and Jops. RIP :)

- Things about me that you probably couldn't care less about, but I'm going to tell you anyways #4

2:29 am

My parents, My older brother (as the younger one wasn't thought of) and I spent Christmas 1986 at my Auntie and Uncle's house in Rotherham. That year I was given a bag of chocolate coins. When we were leaving I specifically asked my mum if she had the chocolate coins as she'd put them in a cupboard for safe keeping, she assured me she had them.

After getting back to our house in London (for that is where we lived back then) it transpired that she in fact she had left them in Rotherham. What's worse is she had actually picked up the chocolate coins belonging to my brother. So to add insult to injury I had to watch my brother scarf his own chocolate coins down that year.

My mum promised to make it up to me by buying me a bag of chocolate coins. However as a cruel and sick joke every time she buys me choccy coins, she buys them for my brother too. Therefore I feel the debt still hasn't been paid, some 24 years later I'm still waiting for my damned choccy coins!

Seriously. Recording her getting her freak on. Also why's the hubby not got an ASBO, he's involved too.

They should invite the neighbours round. It could be quite the party!

- So now I'm going to piss off a good proportion of my f-list.

2:36 am

TWLOHA. As most of you will know, is not a Hawaiian word for bbq chicken, but is in fact a movement/charity who's main aim is to help people who are dealing with negative mental health issues. IE: depression, addiction and suicide. TWLOHA stands for "To Write Love On Her Arms" a name which came from the story of a girl (Renee) who was living a downward spiral of drug addiction and who was labelled as "too much risk" to take into a rehab centre. Her friends rallied around, looked after her, let her know she was loved and supported her into sorting herself out over the space of a few days, before being accepted into rehab.

The charity is now pushing, both for awareness and also to help pay for more treatment for people who are in the clutches of depression and desperation. This is definitely a good thing.

So what is my problem? Well as a solidarity thing, writing love on your arm is a way of showing support for this cause. This is my problem. It's become a badge of solidarity. I'm just waiting for the "I wrote love on my arm before it was cool" t shirts to come out. The problem is that writing love on your arm actually does _fuck all_

Oh sure, it's a good conversation opener:
"why do you have love written on your arm?"
"Well it's because I want to show my support for those fighting drug addiction and the feeling that they're alone and un-loved in this world"
"Good job, so you're showing you support this cause... how do you support it?"
"... "
"Do you give money to them?"
"..."
"Do you volunteer to work with people who are on the edge of society?"
"..."
"Do you care enough to actually give up your time and love someone who the rest of the world has given up on?"


I'd imagine for the vast majority that the truth is, no you don't. You just want to pretend you care by writing a 4 letter word on your arm. But when someone actually needs you, can you step up and put someone else first?


I guess what I'm saying is... don't write love on your arm, or anyone else's arm. If you want to care... show someone that you love them. Take the time to say "Are you ok" and actually care what they say. Grab someone and spend some time with them. Take them out, stay in with them. Give them a smile and a listening ear. Just do something other than just write love on your arm.

8:21 pm

Despite having an aversion to manufactured pop music which threatens to bring me up in a rash and want to gouge out my ear drums whilst simultaneously throwing up my stomach lining...

I really like Lilly Allen and can't help but turn up the radio whenever she's on.


May God have mercy on my soul :/

Oh what happened to you
Whatever happened to me
What became of the people
We used to be

Tomorrow's almost over
Today went by so fast
The only thing to look forward to
's the past


60's sitcom themetune is ringing soooo true right now :/
