A Month Of... Name Dropping...

The song I had originally planned for today ("Lola" by The Kinks) has been cast aside in favour of a song I heard on VH1 last night for the first time in ages...

Goo Goo Dolls and "Iris"...

Hey... I've done "Lola" before (oo-er, missus)... at least twice! And this song is arguably so much better... But if you're so keen to hear The Kinks, just type "Lola" into the search box thingy up at the top left, and you'll find my earlier posts.

Get Me Coffee... NOW!!!

Urgh... it's 20 past 8, and I'm here at work already... all on my own, all day...

Boss is away at the moment, swinging on a rope somewhere off an oil rig, and our store flunky has taken his kid away to see The Tweenies or some other such freaky kids' show (at least, he SAYS it's for the kid, but I'm sure it's more for him... it's certainly about his intellectual level).

So I've had to come in at 8o'clock, and I can't go out at lunch time or anything. I'm here 'til 5.

And, as an insult, the radio is playing MIKA's "Relax, Take It Easy"... Bastards!

It's a miracle that either Viki or me got to work this morning... especially Viki. Neither of us heard our alarms. I just remember suddenly thinking "Oh, shit" and checking my watch - which said 07:00 (well, actually it said "the big hand is on the 12 and the little hand is on the 7", because I don't have a digital watch). Instant panic! Viki's bus leaves at 20 past 7!!!!!

I still don't know how, but I got a text at 22 minutes past 7, saying "I'm on the bus!"

Don't think either of us is awake yet, though.

*Gulps coffee*

It's going to be a looooooooooooooooooooooong day!

Harry POT-ter... And The Sorcerer's Stoned...

Just wanted to share this news story with you - mainly so I could make that terrible pun in the title of this post!

Well, this one is a victim of bad timing... seeing as you've had a link to it posted just a couple of weeks ago... but I can't be bothered to go find another song with a girl's name in it, so you can have the video embedded this time...
