apollaGot my very first proper song finished today at work because it wasn't too busy although people ringing in are still being gits. I just need to find a melody or some music for it now. I do not relish this- it's not a strong point of mine, as my C at Music GCSE proves... and one thing I did for that class (although I must stress, was not in any way for anything examined or marked) was um... borrowed from George Harrison. I felt dead guilty about that for ages... Then Oasis came along.
One last thing that I've been noticing about singers... Freddie Mercury, the Beatles, Morrison, Plant, Martin.. they all smoked. Did that not totally fuck their throats up? How can you sing when you're doing that to your voice? Do not get it. Maybe am just shite compared to them.
That does actually sound like something I'd say. Although I'd be more debonair about it- I'm a pupil of Errol Flynn, after all.
And borrowed from dear Ashleigh....
WHAT IS YOUR NAME? Clare
WHAT COLOUR PANTS ARE YOU WEARING RIGHT NOW? Black pinstripe trousers.
WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO RIGHT NOW? The Song Remains the Same on DVD. "I think this is a song of hope."
WHAT ARE THE LAST 4 DIGITS OF YOUR PHONE NUMBER? Not telling you- in this country that's practically my whole number!
WHAT WAS THE LAST THING YOU ATE? Mini pepperoni pizza. Want another one.
IF YOU WERE A CRAYON WHAT COLOUR WOULD YOU BE? Purple. Deep purple.
HOW IS THE WEATHER NOW? Pretty much blah. Not hot nor cold. Nighttime weather.
LAST PERSON YOU TALKED TO ON THE PHONE? A random Directory Enquiries customer.
FIRST THING YOU NOTICE ABOUT THE OPPOSITE SEX? Whether they're Robert Plant or not.
DO YOU LIKE THE PERSON WHO SENT YOU THIS? I got it from Ashleigh and she's fab!
HOW ARE YOU TODAY? Tired, a little bored.
DRINK? Diet Coke. You can ask me that anywhere, anytime, any season and that will be my answer.
HAIR COLOR? Brown. Still has red bits in it.
EYE COLOUR? Blue.
DO YOU WEAR CONTACTS? Nope.
SIBLINGS? Mikey
FAVOURITE FOOD? At the moment, mini pepperoni pizzas. I want another one.
FAVOURITE FAST FOOD? Mini pepperoni pizzas. 3 minutes in the microwave. I want another one.
LAST MOVIE YOU WATCHED? Well, I'm watching The Song Remains the Same right now, but before that it was High Society for reasons that escape me. It's no Philadelphia Story.
FAVOURITE DAY OF THE YEAR? No idea. They all kinda blend together into one big block of wasted time.
ARE YOU TOO SHY TO ASK SOMEONE OUT? No. But there's nobody I want to ask out.
SCARY MOVIES OR HAPPY ENDINGS? Happy Endings. I don't consider having the shit scared out of me that entertaining. Gratuitous violence, but not scary shit.
SUMMER OR WINTER? Summer. Not British Summer, mind you, but summer.
HUGS OR KISSES? Dunno. Depends who's giving, don't it?
RELATIONSHIPS OR ONE NIGHT STANDS? Having had neither, I am not equipped to answer.
CHOCOLATE OR VANILLA? Chocolate, but more normally Cherry Garcia or Neapolitan, which is chocolate, strawberry and vanilla and thus perfection.
DO YOU WANT YOUR FRIENDS TO DO THIS? If they're bored, sure.
MOST LIKELY TO? Dunno.
LEAST LIKELY TO? Dunno. Someone who has, like, a life.
LIVING ARRANGEMENTS? My bedroom in my house.
WHAT BOOKS ARE YOU READING? Phil Lynott: The Rocker by some bloke called Mark Putterford and some Zep thing by Ritchie Yorke.
WHAT’S ON YOUR MOUSE MAT? Harry Potter going for the Snitch. Considering it was only bought in March for my birthday, it's already coming apart.
FAVOURITE BOARD GAME? Monopoly, because it suits my mercenary instincts.
WHAT DID YOU DO LAST NIGHT? Went to work. Came home. Chatted to Brian and Anne on Y!Mbriefly and then tried to get to sleep. Didn't happen easily.
FAVOURITE SMELLS? Bonfires. A mini pepperoni pizza straight out of the microwave. The smell you get when you first take the clingfilm stuff off a brand new video or DVD box. The smell of videos, actually.
FIRST THING YOU THINK OF WHEN YOU WAKE UP? "Is Murder, She Wrote on today?"
WHY DID YOU WASTE TIME FILLING THIS OUT? Something to do during the three hour 'Dazed and Confused' part of The Song Remains the Same.
