I sincerely apologise for all the trouble I've caused...

You find me in the company of Guy Garvey this evening. On that radio that is. As if I'd be sat here blogging if Mr Garvey was present. Anyway, enough Garvey-gushing. You also find me in the company of my exciting new wireless keyboard, which is making it much easier for me to type. I should've got one ages ago really. Laptop keys are just too delicate for my 'aggressive' speed typing.

This week has been rather dull. I worked a grand total of 4 hours. That equates to less than £30. Not good. And it's looking the same for this week. Hopefully my hours will go up by about 500% when the school holidays kick in.

I have the amazingly titled new Saul Williams album to review - The Rise and Liberation of Niggy Tardust! Only he could get away with that. And it has List of Demands on, which is one of my favourite tracks by him. Also incredible to listen to when running/working out!

I really want a tattoo but I don't know what to get! Argh. I sort of want lyrics a la Simon Neil of Biffy Clyro (he has 'god only knows what I'd be without out across his chest). Also, Simon Neil is married! I am devastated. And slightly surprised. His wife must be one tough lady, dealing with all the time apart, and pulling him through the recent death of his mother and stuff. Apparently he was doing some pretty dark stuff. I guess it's that kind of stuff that makes you realise you're in it for the long run! Anyway, yeah lyrics - the ones I want are too long and I can't choose between them. I'm swaying towards 'I sincerely apologise for all the trouble I've caused' - the name of David Ford's first album, but I'm not sure. I'm also thinking about maybe a little heart or flower or something. Apparently there's a big feature in this month's Vogue on tattoos so I'm going to check that out. I definitely want it on my back though, pretty high up, on one side. Not on my shoulder blades though, cos they stick out a bit and apparently it really hurts to have it on bones.

I need to get back to running 5/6 days a week. I just wake up and think 'oh I can't be bothered'. Lazy. And as a result, my stomach is looking like there's a rubber ring residing round it. Have started using one of those fitness ball things - and man do they give you a good workout. I did the whole DVD that went with it, it was about 45 minutes long, and I felt SO good after, like all my muscles had been stretched and everything. Especially my back, which is good because I sometimes have trouble with it. Anyway, those babies are not just for bouncing up and down on, you can do some serious work with them! So hopefully I will be well on my way to getting a nice six pack soon haha.

Anyway, back to Mr Garvey.

'Pip pip.
