Some people need to sort their lives out. Take a good, long hard look at themselves.
I'm one of them.
Anyways, today was a pretty good day. It was kinda weird actually, every something happened that was like a little nugget of joy. Work was surprisingly really good, only one person stopped me to discuss the sad state of affairs that is Royal Mail. Plus, there wasn't much mail, and what there was really brightened my day. It's fantastic to feel that good, before 8am. It doesn't happen very often.
I'm kinda impressed with the Rock Ness line up this year. The Strokes, Plan B and Enter Shikari would be pretty cool to see. Still, the rest of it is mostly not to my taste :/
I'm watching X-Files right now. I got the box set containing all 9 seasons in november or december, and I'm still ploughing through them. It's a brilliant show, which I think never really took off in the UK, to some extent. The episode that's on just now has been pretty deep. Apparently there's been various periods of mass extinction in the Earth's history, and it's basically querying how long till the next period (ie, human life is extinguished) and what triggered the initial spark of life to form the first single cell. Apparently over 97% of species that have ever lived are now extinct. That's pretty terrifying if you ask me. When you consider that all forms of life are really guests on this planet, it's horrific how we abuse and mistreat it.
Ok, I'll jump to my song of the day. This has been stuck in my head for the past few days. And it's pretty easy to get ma groove on to it!! Haha!! I first heard "I Don't Feel Like Dancing" on the radio in the car, while I was waiting in the car while my parents were in a funeral directors. It's funny the things you remember eh?
Finally:
1.Holy crap....I've listened to Motion City Soundtrack 107 in the past week. That's dedication. Go me.
2. Good luck tomorrow Becca :)

I am sooooo excited to be seeing Motion City Soundtrack next month. Last night I stumbled upon some of their live bootlegs, and last december they did three shows in Chicago, and dedicated each night to one of their albums, and played it out in it's entirity. Fantastic stuff. I'm very jealous of those that got to attend.
I'm a bit annoyed at myself, because I've opted to mix up my gym routine. I'm going to see Avatar 3D tonight, so I could have either made two trips to town, or gone to the gym before the cinema. Neither are ideal, so gym tomorrow, and either friday or saturday. I'll play it by ear. In some ways doing it this way, means I have another trip out of the house. Which is good.
I had an interesting discussion with a couple of people today, about the John Terry thing. It's the first time I've heard someone say he doesn't deserve to lose his England captaincy, because his private life is his private life, and is seperate from his career. There is a degree of accuracy to that, but when you start fucking your team-mate's partner, you're taking your private life to work. If I was Fabio Capello, I'd strip him of his captaincy and drop him for the next England squad. It's just my opinion that the guy needs to have it hit home that he is a huge role model to thousands of people.
I had a bit of trouble deciding which MCS song to add to the playlist today. I love so many of their songs. I think in the end I opted for "Everything is Alright". Apparently it's based on Justin-Pierre (the lead singer) and his struggles with OCD and memory loss.

Motion City Soundtrack obviously read my blog. They read it, and thought, hey, let's make David's day, and sort out a UK tour. Well, thanks very much guys. Tickets ordered!! :D
I've been a bit gutted today, after hearing the news that one of my favourite colleagues has decided not to work in my sorting office anymore. I'm kind of jealous for her at the same time, but I'm going to really miss her.
Hopefully I won't be too far behind her, in going out the door.
