Bed Head went for a bath, he might be back in a bit.
 
 
Suedey! SHOT FOR MEAT!
22:28 / 21.10.06
I even read that, I think I just like affirmation.

I don't have room in my life for The Wire... Battlestar Galactica is demanding all my loving.

Good news gang! It turns out that my flatmate did not phone me from inside the washing machine this morning. I feel much less confused now.
 
 
Suedey! SHOT FOR MEAT!
22:40 / 21.10.06
Stoatie. We both know this isn't true.
 
 
Blake Head
22:43 / 21.10.06
Which is to say, that the phone rang this morning before work, and when I received no reply apart from sounds that I can only describe as “wet” and “cyclical”, jumped to the sleep deprived conclusion that my flatmate’s mobile was in the then active washing machine, and had somehow dialled our flat. Thankfully, this proved to be false, which does as at least beg the question of what said flatmate was doing when he called.

Somethings should remain a mystery, Blakehead.

Sooo, I bought some yummy tulupas, or something like that. They are much like churros, just drenched in honey.Mmm...

Time to put the kettle on.

Turns out: I don’t know what I’m talking about anyway. There is at least one thread about skating, at least the practical elements thereof.

And that our Suedey was (is?) quite the young skate rat...
 
 
iamus
23:02 / 21.10.06
You're eating TULPAS?

That's some heavy mojo!
 
 
iamus
23:05 / 21.10.06
I never knew Suedey skated.


You think you know some people....
 
 
Papess
23:10 / 21.10.06
You could say... I am embodying them..

BA-DUM-PA!
 
 
Suedey! SHOT FOR MEAT!
23:11 / 21.10.06
Skating? Wha? Like this?



I missed all mention of this! I wonder how many times I've posted that picture. I think there may have been at least two - possibly three - skate threads in my time.

I always get excited and then remember I can't do it anymore, get nostalgic then go and play Tony Hawk in the most realistic way possible (note: quite hard).

I have a lot to thank skating for.
 
 
Blake Head
23:18 / 21.10.06
S'funny. That book I was rambling about talks about that. Skating quite seriously and then it being five years later and you've moved to a new place and you're skating around New York and all the kids are shunning you for being too old and behind with the times at 25. Not that it happened to me.

I haven't skated since I was a wee lad.
 
 
Papess
23:20 / 21.10.06
Is that you Suedey?

Wait, didn't you used to be that other head? Suedehead...YEAH! The Trinity of the Unholy Heads!
 
 
Triplets
23:20 / 21.10.06
Suede-, Bed- and Jar- head (Haus).
 
 
Blake Head
23:22 / 21.10.06
Am I kicked out of the gang now or what?
 
 
Papess
23:23 / 21.10.06
Ms Tripletsy knows triplets.
 
 
Suedey! SHOT FOR MEAT!
23:26 / 21.10.06
I like to call him Abs, like that one from five.
 
 
iamus
23:30 / 21.10.06
He likes it when you call him that too.
 
 
Suedey! SHOT FOR MEAT!
23:30 / 21.10.06
ps. that picture is indeed me!

I dunno about the same sentiment as that book, I just sort of stopped skating because I became interested in other things. Strangely that I probably became interested in primarily because of skating. It's like the core of my formative experiences - it make's me sad when people are harsh about it off-hand. It can be quite a thing.

But whenever I think about it I think "ooh, it'd be nice to do that again" and it's a good memory. Then I remember I can't do it because I haven't for years and my body isn't used to it. I find this out about once a yearwhen I succumb to that nostalgic urge.
 
 
Blake Head
23:32 / 21.10.06
Ok. Cool.
 
 
Papess
23:35 / 21.10.06
I can totally relate to that Suedey.
 
 
STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK
23:37 / 21.10.06
WOW. I've just read the best problem page letter the Daily Star has ever printed.

*clears throat*

I recently had a snoop around my boyfriend's flat and found a disgusting DVD in his player.
It featured aliens having sex and it was really sickening and violent.


The Invisibles was true after all! Who knew?
 
 
iamus
23:39 / 21.10.06
Hehe....


Best thing I overheard yesterday?

A buisnessman on the train:

"Of course he didn't know how to use the i-comment. He was too busy throwing an orange!"

I don't know who he was talking about, but I like him.
 
 
Blake Head
23:41 / 21.10.06
Were the aliens just having sex with eath other or...
 
 
iamus
23:42 / 21.10.06
Via the medium of an orange?
 
 
STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK
23:48 / 21.10.06
I'm just hoping it wasn't porn involving an alien autopsy. Now that really would be sick.
 
 
Bed Head
23:53 / 21.10.06
Who would you write to for help if you have a snoop around your partner's flat and found copies of the Daily fucking Star? Hypothetically.

Hello again! I am now squeaky-clean, and fragrant.

*squeaks, smells nice*
 
 
Suedey! SHOT FOR MEAT!
23:56 / 21.10.06
You always arrive when I'm at my last droplet of wine!
 
 
iamus
23:57 / 21.10.06
Tis his bohemian way.
 
 
Suedey! SHOT FOR MEAT!
23:58 / 21.10.06
Do you have a flouncy after bath shirt, Bed?
 
 
Bed Head
23:58 / 21.10.06
Yeah, that's what you say! Well, I've run out of cigarettes! So there!
 
 
Suedey! SHOT FOR MEAT!
23:58 / 21.10.06
A dress robe?
 
 
iamus
23:59 / 21.10.06
A smock?
 
 
Bed Head
00:02 / 22.10.06
I'm wrapped in big fluffy towels, actually.

Tt. Flouncy shirts are for after-breakfast lounging around.
