Lost my 160GB iPod and am now back to a 16GB. Rotating the contents based on my whimsical taste is such a chore.

did you lose your unreleased tunes?

twats at work have eaten pretty much most of my salad cream. how can i eat my cheese and onion roll now? fuck my life!

I have begun a 5,000 dollar spending spree on clothes which I shouldn't really do at this stage but fuck, I need new clothes. I haven't shopped seriously in years and I need a decent wardrobe.

that last batmam and superman movie leaked into warez and i realize perfectly that its utter shit and i still want to watch it and i will totally do it tonight. fuck.

i spend about $200/yr on clothes maybe. probably much less but we'll average that with the very occasional cheap suit i buy. that's 25 years worth of clothes your budgeting for

or did you mean like, yen or rupees or something

he means convict money, i.e. australian dollars (worth a good bit less than USD).

Apparel shopping...I used to try and buy the newest, most expensive clothing I could find in my late teens and early 20s. Anymore though I go to thrift / second-hand shops when I need new shirts or something.

BTW Juice sorry to hear about your mom's condition. Hope she pulls thru.

woops wrong thread

to add something to this thread: my vinyl records sound horrible, dunno if it's the cartridge or the needle. I think it's not the amp nor speakers cause CDs/PC sound just fine

hm, didn't think it could be the cables, good call. Whole setup is "vintage" aka old as fuck, will have to troubleshoot. I'm kinda scared to though, as a number of weeks ago I plugged in an old FM radio and the cable fuckin exploded with the loudest BANG and all the lights in the house went out, gave me a heart attack. That + ignorance about electric stuff makes me scared of tinkering with cables and current

good lord, that is beyond me but my setup is vintage too. didn't occur to me that the cables could be the issue but both the receiver and turntable are older than i am maybe. you may be missing a ground wire? the bang is concerning

My buttocks hurt from riding my bike all day. Not sexually.

lol jk. feel better gocabs bum

I sat in on a 2 hour meeting this morning that doesn't pertain to my job at all.

My relationship with my mom and stepdad is kind of distant, probably because 1) I don't need or ask for financial assistance from them and 2) I think I'm a bit reserved or even frigid around people with whom I don't have a working relationship or some other type of regular exchange of ideas. Not even a problem, really, but it feels like some kind of shortcoming on my part, I guess. Oh well.

jesus what a pile of garbage it was, and i watched the extra long 3 hour ultimate version of it too.

As I was driving home from an evening grocery run a female pedestrian stopped on the sidewalk for several seconds and appeared to wave directly at me as I drove past. Then I noticed she was walking with some shirtless bro. I had no idea who she was, but she probably thought I was someone she knew. Not so problematic tho, as it was just completely random.

that story was highly arousing up until the word "bro."

Yeah sorry about the "bro" bit. It probably would've made a greater impact had he not been in the picture. Though that didn't seem to stop her nonetheless...

Also I happened to be blaring Mr. Oizo at the time.

Mr Oizo - Flat beat, I hope?

heh

oh, today my GF said.. "yeah i keep forgetting to tell you but i already told my parents we'd have dinner at their place. my cousin is in town and will be there".. which is fine really.. i like all these people and i won't have to think about what's for dinner.. but i'm fucking exhausted and want to work on some music before i go to the east coast for family reunion-ish things.

i should just commit to locking myself up and not being bothered and being alone forever except maybe for the place i go buy groceries.

better off watching superman returns with brandon routh, parker posey, kevin spacey and what's her name as lois lane. at least that one has some kind of style and charisma even though leans a bit much on the love story angle for some people.
