Things I think of while I'm thinking of typing...

1. It's raining outside. One of the downsides of having a window in your office (especially one that faces west), is that you see the storms coming in. Which I'm well looking forward to, during my first summer at my new job, since thunderstorms in this town can be epic...but on a cold, rainy day like today, looking out the window is depressing.

2. Been back from the UK for about a month now. Doesn't seem like that long. Spent two fantastic weeks in the best city in the world (and Ireland), got a sunburn, saw all my friends (and Roger Daltrey!), and drank a lot of beer. About as good as it could have gone, but now my motivation for being at work isn't really that high.

3. God, I need a girlfriend.

4. Newcastle got relegated. That makes me laugh even a week later.

5. Kasabian album out in two weeks. I suppose I should get excited.

6. It stopped raining.

7. I think.

I suppose I should try harder, but I'm lazy.

More...

Pete Doherty solo acoustic in London next week. Music when the lights go out, what a waster, and...oh screw it, all libertines songs, please.

Oh, and some guy named Bob Dylan at the roundhouse. Get on that. (!)

Hoping to mix in a dylan show in london in april, but I'm not jinxing anything yet. Maybe some bluesfest shows, and oasis, should they come back to North America before their year-long world tour ends. Here's hoping.

I wish the Eagles had kept Brian Dawkins, too

Somehow I don't think the government will fire me for this thought, however.

Good grief. The poor schmuck was just a gameday employee and voiced his opinion on one of his favourite players leaving town. (It raises the question in my mind what the Bills would do to me if I worked for them and they signed TO. Oh wait...at least one of those two statements actually happened. You know what? 3 days later and I'm fine with it. # 5 will be able to control him. Trent iZ DA MAN!!!!!!!!1111 HE IS DA AWESOME BOMB YO!)

What? Isn't that all these idiots on facebook and twitter talk these days? I can't helps it if it rubs off ons me, dawg.

You know what? I had a point here, and damned if I can remember what it was.

Oh yeah...free speech. Someone get St. Barack on that.

Profound statement du jour

I have grey hair. I'm 29. Women are killing me.

These statements may or may not be connected. I think it's the former.
