The Man, The Myth, The Legend

I've been thinking a lot recently, mainly what I've been thinking about is that I'd love to get back into the writing of stories, poems, songs etc. and playing of guitar that I used to spend much of my free time doing in my late teens, early 20's. The biggest problem with this is that I just don't know where to start, I don't know how to restart the creative processes involved in doing those things. I know it's going to be impossible to just pick up where I left off, for one thing I just don't have the idea's flowing around my head the way they did when I was writing a lot and for another I don't have the finger dexterity or finger "memory" required to play guitar anymore. I know these are generally things that come with practice and being in the right mind set, but I remember being able to do these things, I know I should still be able to do them and that makes me feel disheartened and makes it harder for me to accept that if I'm going to do write and play again then I'm going to have to learn to do it all over again. I'm not sure I have the patience to start all over again, no matter how much I want to.

FUCKKKEEEEDDDDD!!

I'm tired and drained. For some reason after work I just never really feel like spending that much time online so I just don't get round to blogging any more. Anyways I've got the house to myself for a few days and I've made plans to go to Whitby for goth weekend, which should be awesome fun.

You guys need to check out the new Kronenbourg 1664 add, it's awesome Check it out via my lovely youtube link. Just a shame it's an advert for larger, fecking womans drink that it is.

Decision

I came to the decision earlier today that I'm aiming to spend no more than a weeks wages every month from here on. This is all in an effort to save enough money to be able to get some cheap starter furniture together and afford the deposit and the first months rent etc. on a small house with my lovely lady. I want to get out of here and move into somewhere that is, essentially, my own space as soon as possible. What I really want is to be spending Christmas in my own place with my own stuff, just me and my girlfriend our first Christmas together.

ART ATTACK

Had an awesome weekend, despite the weather and feeling generally ill. Saturday night we went out to see the legend that is NEIL BUCHANAN and his, quite frankly awesome, band Marseille. I'll be honest we only went to see them because of who it was and we thought it would be worth seeing for the sake of a nostalgia trip, but it turned out that the band were amazing and Neil's guitar playing was pretty much epic. I shall definitely be on the look out for them coming round again as well as watching for the opportunity to purchase their album. I would recommend them to anyone who loves a bit of late 70's early 80's style hard rock/metal, check them out on their website.
