Had a nice few pints in the pub with my flatmate last night. There were two trapped wasps in there. Got a glass from the girl behind the bar (who wondered why I didn't just kill them) and rescued the poor lads, they looked very lethargic. Had to go right next to a gang of lads to get one, explained to one of them that I was rescuing the wasp and he seemed quite pleased. Nice to see them zip off into the evening sky.
Read an interview with the fucking Kooks in NME when I was having a shit this morning. Urgh, what absolute gormless crap it was. I was sat thinking 'what the fuck am I doing reading an interview with some fucking 19 year olds?'. I'd read the rest of NME so it was the only option. I realise I'm getting on now in terms of the NME demographic (28) but when has a 19 year old EVER had something of worth to say? I was a prick when I was 19, as I'm sure most people look back and say as well. 'there hasn't been a band like us in ages', now, I haven't particularly listened to The Kooks, and nor do I want to, but I'm guessing it's more of the same generic indie schmindie crap that has been heard hundreds of times before, much like 95% of recent bands. Tedious, say-nothing, mean-nothing, 'girls - aren't they great', cuntishly styled wank. The only reason I buy NME is for the odd review that appeals. Even then the reviews aint as good as a few years ago, they used to have reviewers you watched out for and trusted. review of new Muse album this morning, 9 out of 10, now I have listened to this at work, it's ok, nowt special, fairly generic, certainly aint a 9 out of 10.
The animation project now looks like it is going up shit creek, as our animation work always does. Why do we try and get this shit in? doesn't make any money and is shitloads of stress and ALWAYS goes very wrong. Weeks of tension, arguments are all kicking off even now. Super, I just fucking love it. At least the air con has been fixed, thank heavens for small mercies. I shall be a resident of headphone land for as long as possible today, trying desperately to cut off this horrid atmosphere.
