what can you see from YOUR window? [05 Aug 2009|03:16pm]
i am, when i stop to think about it, very lucky.
i live by water.
and when it feels like nothing else is worth much
there are a surprising host of aqua-friends down there
in or on the water
this was what i saw first thing this morning
what a nice wake up.

hey there [27 Jul 2009|11:43pm]
how are you?
what've you been up to since i saw you last?
if i gave you a limit of, say, 25 words?..
to put together a sentence,
what would you be able to tell me?
ive been pretty quiet recently
hardly been out and about
for the past eight or nine weeks
so ive not got much to write here.
but i was wondering
whether you'd give me a subject
or a topic
any theme you think of
or more than one if you can..
thanks!

do you write lists? [25 Apr 2009|08:32pm]
do you talk
about the lists as you write them out?
little half conversations
with no-one in particular.
gentle murmurs that suddenly rise in volume
and end in a "hmm?" and a look up
at someone else in the room
as if they were meant to have been
eavesdropping in on your list
and have an opinion on it.
yes,
if you haven't guessed already,
i am at my mums house,
learning new things about my brother
and sister
every day,
and trying
to get over the
peculiarities
of people
that i really
ought
to know more about.

do you write lists?

so [23 Apr 2009|10:22pm]
erm,
i don't know what your family is like.
mine is particular in its own way
they all are, aren't they.
i wonder;
how do you cope staying
for long periods of time
under someone else's roof?
you know
their rules
their timetables
their food
their furniture
their blah.

comments within reason.
thankyou.

i just watched a film [12 Apr 2009|09:39am]
and although you may have seen it
or may yet see it
i'm not going to tell you about it
like when you first got into that band when you were 12
and you kinda didnt want anyone else to be a fan
cos it SO spoke only to you
this film made me so unhappy and ecstatic altogether
and think about who and what i am
and what's happening.
i'm fed up of wishing and working for things that don't happen
i need something more
but from now on i don't expect anything from anyone anymore
and it has taken three hours to write this.
there's no plot
maybe i should just

i never meant to type the address for this journal page
so whatever it was that wrote it
at least i know it wasn't me.
life has been a strange beast of late
since mums news i guess.
my usual love for art and music waned
ditto for my job
and those of you who know me
even a little
will know that those three things can pretty much
sum
up
my
life
and most of what i hold dear
.
its taken about six weeks of really concentrating on myself to remember why i like certain things.
i remembered friends who have slipped away
more than likely through my being busy working
and not a trifle useless at keeping in touch.
so ive been trying to find them again.
ive been forcing myself outdoors.
ive spent albums of time in deep hot baths
to find music again.
and this thursday
jesse and eddy and i
will be playing a gig in camden
for the first time in a long time.
i wonder how that will go.

so,
just like a lot of other people
my life is an uncertain collection of post it notes
stuck on a fridge door.
and i have nothing really to complain about
least of all
to you

one month later
and there is another video to show

*EDIT*
now i can!
here we go!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wu2VBUyrNAs
.
& i can show you some of the prep photos
if thats of any interest?
.
the promo is for the forthcoming single by Elle Milano, "Meanwhile In Hollywood"
and took two weeks to make from start to finish
and when i say make,
i mean make
-
out of cardboard.







the finished product will be coming to a musical screen near you very soon
&to my youtube as soon as it gets clearance
if you need to see it sooner then either come over to the house & ill show you it
or
go to japan & buy the import copy of the album

my thanks go out to the entire production team but especially to anyone who helped throughout the build week
and so, to those temporary members of the art department - a massive thank you to joe, suzie, karen, sian, hazel, ed, gordy and the allen trio

sometimes... [12 Jan 2008|12:16pm]
people take photographs & then they upload them somewhere
and embed links to those photographs in their journals
in order to share what they have experienced with others
.

and i thought i would share it
with you all
it can be found
& watched
here:

seriously [11 Nov 2007|09:26am]
what do you guys DO on the internet?
ive been stuck at home ill for just over a week now
and if you add up the fact that i hate most tv shows
dont like sleeping very much
dont have enough concentration to draw or write music
and havent any films to watch
or chums about to play with
youre left with reading books - which im doing by the gallon
or the internet
so really - what IS there to do on this thing?
and no writing "anything you want mate - its the world wide blah de blah"
.
yes
im not happy today
but im sure thats what 2.5 hours of restless sleep sets evreyone up for a grey day eh
ho hum
.
much love to you all.

so instead i bought six for a five [02 Nov 2007|05:27pm]
fucking hell id love to just write down what im thinking and feeling - its so rare that i get to this state of enlightenment and itd be handy to be able to come back and read it and maybe get a grasp of it later on next week.
but i wont.
because this is livejournal.
and you are all my friends.
and would get concerned.
or offended?
and would ask questions and check up on me and although that would be lovely it wouldnt be necessary.
this is just me reminding myself that i should have had the sense to have an online journal -ohfuckguesswhichsongmyipodhasdecidedtorandomplay *le sigh* - that only i can read.
maybe this is why some people go and see therapists. because you cant talk about everything to everyone. and even if you could you shouldnt.
so yeah
im fine
all is great
and tonight
left to my own devices
im going to blow out
but someone might stop me
and so tomoro night will suffer instead
or the night after that
or the night after that
but it .will. come
.
happy weekend everybody!

[ music | turn it on again - on repeat :P ]

"For the first three people that reply to me and re-post this challenge, I will send you something. It might be something I've made, or something cool from my hidden stash, it might be a mix CD, or a rubber duck, a book I think you will enjoy, or something else that is completely awesome***. Whatever it is, I promise that I will get it to you in 365 days or fewer. The only thing you need to do in order to participate is to be one of the first three to reply to this, AND post this thing on your journal."




***your opinion of awesome
and mine
may differ greatly :P

so i sit and think and think [22 Oct 2007|10:03am]
[ music | girl from the north counrty ]

and i listen to songs like this
and get a little maudlin
and think: fuck what a horrible person i am
but i do think she's better off without me*
as are all the others
<& its not like im thinking back all wistfully>
i guess the only thing that i know time has given me
is the ability to break up a relationship in an adult manner
with a modicum of respect for what was there.
still, we all grow up over time eh?
.
i guess music just moves me
deeper than i care to think about normally.
