…without a dope beat to step to

Wednesday, November 25th, 2009

so it’s been a while since i’ve updated you on my life at home. things have been settling down.

big muff pedal i've been using at homeIn the past i felt lonely and listless a lot, now i seem to be filling my time more easily. there is a lot of television in my life, but I have been picking up the guitar and recording little bits on the iPhone on a more regular basis.

Christmas has broken my awesome no-spending period, i went about 3 weeks without shopping at all, and you don’t miss it. I believe catalogues are the bain of life, because they make you look at what you *could* be buying and how much money you could save doing it. So i never look at catalogues! But Christmas has the same effect, you have to go online looking for a cool present for a friend, instead finding three cool presents for yourself… then you go to Borders or JB Hi-fi to get the things people requested for Christmas and then you buy one extra thing for one person, so you have to find one extra thing for the other person, then you find out they already have that thing so you have to return it and find another thing.

So my savings are gone.

The dentist is the other bain of my existence at the moment. At first it was the money, now it’s just getting him to do a decent job for the rather large sums of money I pay him… grrr. I’m thinking of asking to see my x-ray and just grabbing it and running out the door. Go see a different dentist and fingers crossed! They’re worse than car mechanics!

Work is settling in, i no longer feel like i’ll be fired any second, i’m finally actually doing what I was paid to do – make a website! But my social life is still very quiet. what can I say? I’m shy. I don’t like going out with big crowds, I don’t like staying out till 2am every weekend, I don’t like drinking regularly. Fortunately I have atleast three work Christmas parties to make me feel like I have a social life anyway.

Can anyone recommend a good band to go see? I wish my damn job gave me access to myspace, so i could see when my favourites will be playing next :/
