O' hai, we're the cribs and we are perfect, holler!
BUS WANKERS! What's up? Haven't updated this shit in foreverski. I'll give it a go next week or something. I just wanted to say that my sister will be on BBC (UK/US/World Service) next week or the following week. They are doing a short documentary and interview. It's not 100%. She might get bumped if something more important happens -- like Madonna purchasing another Malawian child or somfing. So ya. *dryhump/lick* ya'all. Godspeed and that!

The Cribs NEW ALBUM WHUT WHUT |
] |
Unrelated, the very last episode of Lost airs on may 19th, 2010. Let me rephrase that for dramatic effect; The series finale of Lost is on May 19th, 2010. Then the series is over.
The Lost series draws to an end on May 19th. Then you will have to find something else to watch/do because Lost will have ended. Period. Bacon is good for me.

(legal disclaimer: photo not mine. personal disclaimer: wish it were)
I must confess that I'm most likely at the point of repeating myself in these parts. I think that with the demise of Oasis, I'm replacing Liam Gallagher as the coolest person in music. The coolest [living] person in music is Ryan Jarman (of Cribs fame). Ryan Jarman is, definitively, the coolest person in rock. Noel Gallagher remains the king of everything. That's the list. Remember lists!
The Cribs new disc drops on September 7th. I can tell you right now, it's a total clusterfuck of everything Epic. The above clip is a track off the new album which features Johnny [Fucking] Marr. Yeah, he ASKED if he could be in the band. The following is my boyfriend Ryan Jarman on a British gameshow. Love the Yorkshire accent. And that's all I'm willing to blather on about at 11:16pm.

Best wedding proposal EVER. Smoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooth.
I survived F2-strength tornadoes, a 24 hour blackout and the monster from Cloverfield this past weekend. Details to follow, some other time maybe.

Loose Update. If I'm honest wifmyself I'll relay intel. revealing that keeping up with the Joneses is something I'm having a hard time doing. So much so that I don't much identify with them -- Metaphorically, nowamean? But I must tell you that it feels rather good slipping into a pair of 31" jeans. Well, sorta fitting them. This is even more miraculous considering I've got rather womanly hips. My pelvic bone now protrudes outwardly. Awkward as this is, I do enjoy touching them. Is that weird? Rather. Anyway, godbless the 40 minutes of Cardio a day I do. The six meals -- the six tiny meals/per day I ingest that comprise mostly of protein and twice the daily requirement of fibre that is recommended -- the 7-9 litres of filtered water which passes through me, daily. So, cheers to frequent bowel movements! And may Allah/Buddha collectively bless the moments I'm feeling a bit snarky and go for the 10cm x 10cm square of Aged White Cheddar. Call it a mini foodgasm of sorts, really. I am still very far from having Brad Pitt's abs from the days of Snatch, but fuck me I'm making a go of it. We'll revisit this come November/December. Well, with a bit of luck/dedication I guess. There's a quote I read somewhere, I think it was Men's Health Magazine and I think the person saying it was Will Smith (not sure), it read; "You may be better looking than me and have me up on 9 other points. You get me on a treadmill and two things are gonna happen. I'm gonna outlast you or I'm gonna [fucking] die.". I'm paraphrasing and I threw in the fucking to sound more dramatic but yeah, it's like that these days.
Winston Churchill once said If you are going through hell, keep going. Had he never existed to steal my thunder and had I been El Presidente of my own Republic[a], I'd have brilliantly quoted myself in saying If you're going through hell, shop!. In the midst of being rather stressed out, I fancied a bit of a shop at the Yorkdale mall. For my fellow Torontonians, you'll be pleased to know the mall now has a Hugo Boss (I just had a tiny orgasm) and American Apparel. But this American Apparel has apparently hired the non-asshole contingent of the Hipster n00bs. So, win. I must say, shopping is something I'm rather good at. Nobody can refute this. This must have been the best outing I've ever had. Everything I set out to get, I got. Complemented by the euphoric high brought about by Starbucks and Oasis (iPod). The night was then concluded by the hot cashier lady kinda sorta hitting on me at one of the stores illustrated above. This would not be particularly note-worthy otherwise, but this is so because she was a Pakistani from England complete with English (thinkin' Brighton?) accent and looked like a shorter/less visibly artsy/more business casual-yet-SASy version of Natasha Khan. *High Five* Or maybe it's racist to think any Pakistani with an English accent looks like Natasha Khan *shrugs shoulders*. I should also tell you that the Club Monaco at Yorkdale has some amazing new gear. Their scarves... ohhohohohoh their scarves.
O_o And yeah I bought I fedora, you wanna go me betch?
I'm currently studying for my Network+ Certification. It's proving to be a lot harder than I had anticipated. I have my A+ cert. that I took a few years ago but this is the crown-jewel of the Comptia certifications. I don't know why I'm doing this. Initially I felt like it would be sort of like bragging rights for geekdom. I just wanted to do this to become more technically well-rounded or however that goes. But I see so many jackoffs working in IT as Network Admin. who don't know how to properly swap NICs, implement networks and administer user rights that it just makes me so mad because they're all making mad coin. Once I get this (along with some of my work experience and other qualifications), I could, technically, join that field but I'm on the fence with that one. I'm just burned out having to memorize this fucking 801.XX standards, converting IPs to fucking binary and understanding every incarnation of 10BaseXX. Oh Winston Churchill, where the fuck you at?? Half this stuff is stuff I already know or are expanding upon. The other half is making me lose my marbles a 'lil. I'm scheduling myself to take the exam at the end of this month. I require 80% to pass. Lots of people fail the first time. I'm already nervous, the exam isn't cheap. I've not taken any class to learn this, like the other knobheads who pay in excess of over 1k. Just a book, my DOS shell and the Internet. Then a month later I'm taking my Secure+ which is a lot easier, I believe. Yup. There you go.
It is now less than half a year until the last season of Lost. Get on down with your badass self.
I've admired this song & video for over a year. Bit Chav'y but now you have the chance to heart it too. It makes me want to go biking along the rural bits of France. Although the geographic topology revealed in this video is that of Monaco.
Interesting fact about Monaco via Wikipedia: Monaco is the world's most densely populated sovereign country, and the world's smallest French-speaking country. An average person takes only 56 minutes to walk across the width of the country. Monaco is the name of the country as well as the name of its capital city. It is often regarded as a tax haven, and many of its inhabitants are wealthy and from foreign countries, making up a majority of the population, at around 84%.
Goodnight.

Americans are actually correct when they reference their country as being the land of opportunity. If Winston Churchill quotes don't get you through the most difficult of times -- "If you're going through hell, keep going" --, I implore you to remember the following; If Sarah Fucking Palin can become such an influential/powerful person, surely I can make a go of things. Guys, look at this messenger bag I just ordered. It's pretty much the greatest thing you ever saw today, roight?!
I'm contemplating videotaping myself singing and playing Oasis' D'yer Wanna Be A Spaceman on my guitar and posting it on YouTube. I'd sing it in a Southern American accent and then in my best Churchill. Churchill, I says. Nay, rather, but in all srslyness, I'll most likely be posting a lot of video projects in the coming months that feature timelapse videography and fucking brilliant edit cuts. I've recently mastered Adobe Premiere CS4 in conjunction with After Effects. Win[ner]. Believe!
How you doin'? |

Golden German Nazi Gnome knows what you did last summer. In fact, Gold German Nazi Gnome knows what you're doing right now. Golden German Nazi Gnome wouldn't be such a n00btube had it not been for the simple fact that Golden German Nazi Gnome is... well, a Golden German Nazi Gnome. There's approximately something like 45,000 U.S. troops still stationed in Germany, to this day. They set up shop there after the second World War. Let's hope they stay there for rest of time? In the event that you know, you know? Yeah No?
Ridiculous Shit, Really Really Really.
Today, I find, is a distinctively Foals-oriented day. I really think that these guys are such brilliant musicians. I can't help but face the unfortunate reality that they strike me as being rather... scenester dicks. The lead singer has the annoying atmosphere/aura about him. I can't quite place it. He's so short. I sort of want to punch him? However, the strange thing I am about to show you PEOPLES is that in the following video that very same lead singer is wearing a Club Monaco sweater that I am wearing in my default icon. That's brilllllllllllll. Iant. Do you see it? Anyway, this song has always p4n3d my own very soul. Right to the core. CHEERS! ////xx
This afternoon I was studying and learning about the inner workings of routers and NICs and switches and learning the various layers of the OSI model and what network protocols are applicable to what (don't worry, geekwank there) until the power went out for the second time today. Being helpless to the Epic Fail abound, I fucked off and went for a walk. As is customary in this parts, livejournalically-speaking, here are some photos of my hood, y'all.
( O'Hai... )
