Four days till D-Day (exam) and I’m too wired to even think about sleeping. Just got in from a gig at Centurion, was meant to be ‘not drinking’ and keeping a clear head, but the call of the Kronenberg was just too much – well, it would’ve been impolite not to. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
The gig was good, excellent line-up – Simma; Casual Kai; Sundown; Jimmy Two Times; Steven & Michael Cochrane and a fantastic banjo player called Dan Walsh – he was just amazing! Good crowd too – most of them commiserating after this afternoon’s match – including Gav; I met him when I got in there.<\/p>\n
Been doing a lot of thinking over the last few days, am excited about finishing my study as there are LOADS of things I need to do which I’ve been putting off until after this month. <\/p>\n
“Are you going to get a life?”, I hear you cry! <\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Yes, that’s the plan! I have a list of things I promised myself that I would do with all of this TIME I’ll suddenly have – there’s a few things I need to do in the house (note to self – save more money!)<\/i> like install a shower cubicle and get new blinds throughout the house (actually, I’m going to try to sort that this week); I promised Sundown<\/i> I’d sort out a new website for them; I should return to my guitar lessons; am also considering taking up the violin – saw a cool purple electric one I quite fancy; promised various people they could come for dinner; I should have more time to exercise…and there are a fair few dvd box sets that are just crying<\/i> out to be watched! \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n
There are some personal issues I need to sort out too, nothing major, just a couple of situations that I need to sort out in my head. Something happened a while ago that I should’ve dealt with at the time but I purposely put it to one side because I was too busy and dealing with it would’ve slowed me down. I guess now (as the situation hasn’t changed) it’s time to deal with it. The problem with putting something to one side is that it stays in limbo and you still end up having to face it. <\/p>\n
While thinking about this, I’m listening to Mike Lindup again – the Changes<\/i> album. It always makes me feel better no matter what my mood is. There’s a song called Fallen Angel<\/i> which has the lyrics:<\/p>\n
\tAngels cry as they fall
\n\tPlease tell me why you don’t hear my call
\n\tAngels cry as they fall
\n\tNot a day goes by when I’m not thinking of you<\/em><\/p>\n….that’s kind of how I feel at the minute.<\/p>\n
Sorry – didn’t mean to wax sentimental; sometimes songs can hit you in the head and other times they can smack you in the heart. This song is powerful enough to do both.<\/p>\n
Anyway, not wanting to leave this on a low note – as I’m fine, in fact – I’m still quite wired. Therefore, I now feel the need to watch a vampire movie, Underworld Evolution<\/i> me thinks! A hot chick ‘kicking ass’ (which is inspiring!) along with some sexy (male) vamps and lycanthropes! \ud83d\ude00 <\/p>\n
