Should of, would of, could of.. (or, ‘I love me..’)

While completing a music meme on facebook courtesy of Master Chris Hambly, I was caught in a meander down memory lane and I realised that I’ve had many opportunities to live a pretty amazing life.

Bags of stuff

The latest college assignments had me chuckling; first of all we have to keep a career planning blog, they’re trying to initiate some sort of micro social network within the group with these – at least that’s how it seems. They all have to be public, we are all supposed to keep up to date [...]

Comfort

There are times when everybody just wants a hug, it doesn’t always matter where the hug comes from they just need to feel the close physical presence of another person and the comfort it brings – you don’t even need to be upset or worried about anything, there’s just something in the human make-up that [...]

Pandora radio

It’s da bomb! *grin* Sorry, I’ve been re-living my musical youth this afternoon. (in a none ‘pass tha dutchi’ sense..) Pandora radio is based on the music genome project:

At what time?

There I was having a pretty interesting dream when, as it dissolved around me, I was forced to realise that the sound of ‘More than a feeling’ by Boston was not in fact coming from the car radio of my dream but was actually reverberating around the bedroom through the floorboards.

karaoke heaven

You see, on the one hand I’m missing out on the fantastic company of my in-laws (and obviously the love of my life since he’s there without me) on the other, it’s been non-stop karaoke here this weekend.

Horses in costume

That’s what I’m off to see this evening. I’ll be at the trafford centre by 4pm so we can buy our tickets for the 5pm show. I’m guessing we’ll go straight to karaoke from there since it’s Kay and Rob I’m accompanying to see the spirit of the horse.

KAAAAAAAAAaaraoke!

I got a call at the nth hour last night to join Kay for karaoke, it was a fun night – although I did walk into the pub just as a drunk was heaving a chair at a disabled guy.. Gotta love the locals in Swinton.

Pub singers

I, as a few of you already know, absolutely adore going to a karaoke, not just because I can sing (although I’ve been accused of this in the past) but because of the atmosphere a great karaoke can bring. It’s not all about THE BOOK and getting up, although having a cracking selection of songs [...]

Bugger.

So I didn’t get DLA, I’m not shocked, the medical assessment was hellish and I knew in my gut I’d be refused any more financial help. It sucks, just because I look normal and healthy i’m obviously faking it as far as they’re concerned, they don’t see me on the days i need to rest [...]

Oh what a beautiful morning!

It is absolutely gorgeous out there today. Bit cold still, but the front room seems so warm and inviting when the sun streams through like this – and to think I used to avoid the sun where possible (well, ok so I’m not planning on going outside in it for long, but i’m not hissing [...]

Devil man

I know, Rob Zombie is not the best artist to listen to before bed – especially that specific track – it’s all Stefs fault though. He’s playing CoH again and apparently they now have a streaming radio to listen to and he keeps asking me if i’ve ever heard of the artists on there *tuts* [...]

Valentines day massacre

We climbed out of the pit around midday, slobbed around for another couple of hours then got in the car to sit in rush hour traffic and listen to steve wright and chris evans on radio 2, then we came home, ate take out, watched films and went to bed.

Shitter of a day.

I’d set my alarm for 10am, just to make sure I was up and ready for this medical assessment, sadly I was just too knackered so I shuffled the alarm up to 12pm and went back to sleep. We went off to Albert bridge house where the ordeal was to take place. Stef dropped me [...]

The Anchor and horseshoes

We went to claires showcase and it was actually a cracking night, there are a fair few things I would have done differently had I been the promoter – not the least being select a more suitable venue, but at least there was enough parking for us all.

High school musical

I’ve seen this thing everywhere – and I do mean everywhere, Claire started talking about it tonight because apparantly all her kids love it (by ‘her kids’ I mean the ones she teaches music to) so I asked her what the deal was – this sparked off a huge discussion with her sister about the [...]

Choon!

I’m well chuffed! The vocal samples I’ve been sweating over recording for Paul (literally in this weather since all doors, windows and curtains have to be closed for soundproofing) have culminated in an actual track. *grin*

Tamsyn Luke

Life? Don’t talk to me about life… Just lately on tv there seem to be a lot of reference to things from my childhood, the music, the comedy, toys and games… I’ve been remembering a lot of things. One of those things is Tamsyn Luke.

Meh

My reading habit is slowing somewhat – I’ve only read 16 books this year – and at least half of those were teen books. My dvd viewing habits though… *grin* I love amazon, truly I do. now if only I could find some none strenuous work I could do from home to earn the money [...]

featuring a pregnant pause..

I’m beginning to think someone somewhere is trying to get me to go down the pregnancy road. Seriously – the last 2 weeks have given me a vast selection of email junk, varying from the usual viagra and penis extension rubbish to the worryingly more frequent ‘find a fuckbuddy’, ‘sex addicts in your area’ and [...]

Laughing it up

I had another strange dream. I was auditioning for the X-Factor, dressed as Lara Croft. The cameras converged upon me and when I was asked the question “Why are you dressed as Lara Croft?” I calmly pulled out my gun and answered “One way or another I will be getting through.” Don’t ask… My song [...]

misheard lyrics

Conversation between me and the bloke this afternoon: Me: singing along to the commitments album

karaoke etiquette

Ok ok ok, stop with the emails already!!! I’ve had no net access that’s why I’ve not posted. Aside from about 15 minutes at the tail end of Stef’s library session on tuesday I’ve been netless – it’s awful! (Worse for Stef though, he works from home *grin* That phone company is gonna get it [...]

stuff to do

Karaoke competition tonight. hmmm… still dont know what i want to sing, never a good thing – after all preperation is the key *grin* Thats the problem with knowing and liking too many songs, im a good singer, not fantastic – nowhere near as good as i used to be, but i have a good [...]
