Southern Comfort

Something of an epiphany. Pursuing the impractical meets unexpected progress, and reality seems to distort.

Dunedin has been kind. Rural hill views, rows of vibrant greenery and less-than-pleasant associated smells combine for a wonderfully stimulating daily excursion, traversing dusty roads and beaten tracks by duocycle while pondering why no-one else still listens to Supergrass. Though the mock-hollywood styled MOSGIEL sign has me recoiling in amazement that something so gauche and tragic was ever erected.

Have found a second bar worth frequenting, and I am no longer limited to two varieties of Emersons for on-the-town drinking. Bulmers Cider, I am in your debt.

EP is coming along. Second track nearly finished. Never been more proud of something I've helped create, and that includes the first time I successfully managed to deep-fry chicken at home.

Looking ahead feels both daunting and inspiring. Pending a financial shakeup, this year could hold any number of potential adventures.. whether worldly, musically, educationally or.. other? Somehow, feeling close to square one with just about everything feels like more of an opportunity than a hindrance.

Oh life, you so crazy

Spastic Sarcastic

Well, shit. I suck at this. But if Sam can do it, so can I. Suck my literary prose you stilted hack.

I kid. Hugs buddy

Things are different. Places and people and things. I'd call it a transformative period if I actually felt it were transforming into anything of significance. Nonetheless.

Bands! Surf adventures await. Probably here, possibly down south, and hopefully up north. Logistics and practical considerations abound, we'll see if anything actually happens.

Bands! Who says you need a solid lineup. Never quite know what's best, though each year seems to add at least one element worth retaining.

Bands! CALH seems to have defined my year, I remain doubtful anything will quite be able to top the experience. Horizons have been expanded musically, socially and chemically, no doubt for the better.

Hello, goodbye

Now I remember...

..Wherein it becomes gradually more apparant that physical intimacy is no longer freely available.

Ah, overriding emotional disparity, it's interesting to see you again. I have not missed you.

And I do not foresee us getting along.



Where the fuck do I start?

Trendsetter

God forbid I should actually use this Blog to blog. But here goes nonetheless.

Things currently happening, rated in order of how much I am enjoying them:

1. New Café job, surprisingly;

3. Surf Band. Coming soon: A name, maybe.
4. Found my Maps CD. Can't believe I forgot about this music;
5. Mailbox watching;
6. Thinking up ideas for comics then not drawing them cause they'll probably just seem like XKCD plagarisations;
7. Nathan Fillion.
8. Look Around You. I want Peter Serafinowicz to narrate my life;
9. Waiting for IT Crowd Season four. Come on....
10. Decisions, decisions. Want to take/plan/consider/be able to afford a holiday, to somewhere good. Chch fail.





Today at work a paraplegic man brought his empty coffee cup all the way from outside back to the counter just to be nice. And yet some other people (possessed of full mobility no less) won't even open their mouth to smile when I provide bitchin' service.



Hey world, how are you?
