Meme: miscellaneous. The sky is falling in and I’m here blogging it first-hand 100% realtime apocalypse over the internet via RSS2.0 if you have the technology and if you don’t don’t worry you’ll be seeing just what I mean about 4 hoarse men in a few seconds. It’s raining.
longest. title. ever. (lol, if you run your cursor over it you get brain damage)
10 Years Ago:
My first year of high school. Buying a lot of dodgy cafeteria food and playing hand tennis. Being teased for getting spots first, by people who are now major pizza-faces.
Five Years Ago:
My first year at Uni. I had just finished my Environmental Law exam and had fallen in love with Her. I was on my way to visit my Dad and his family in Melbourne and pissed off about it. I was 18, but very young.
One Year Ago:
I had just quit my job as a bottleshop guy, choosing to leave rather than wait to be fired when I crushed something *really* expensive with the forklift. My desk was a mess of PhD applications and my bands were doing their wind-up shows before I had to leave. Both of the shows sucked, as it happened.

Awesome, I’ve finally found someone else who enjoys Wire in the Blood. Love that show.

Wire in the Blood is great. Have the 3 series. Robson Green total nerd spunk rat.
As screwed up as they are in the show, its nothing like what Val Macdermid has done with them in her books. In last one, i’m not sure if i have ever read a series of books where the two main characters that you have come to love and really really hope they get together, get totally and completely fuked up…sooo depressing.

Wait, there’s a show with a ‘total nerd spunk rat’ in it that I’ve missed? How in hell did that happen?
How tragic is this, Mark? I was waiting for the bus today and thought I saw you. You aren’t really short are you?
Comment by nailpolishblues — Monday November 28 2005 @ 4:46 pm
Nails - I’m a bit shorter than average, but not so you’d remark about it.
I don’t understand Robson Green’s sex appeal, but I wouldn’t, would I?
James - so you’re not going to pick it up?
Rob & Coz - I didn’t know there were books. Sweet! Thanks. Glad to know I’m not becoming some old duffer (esp. after watching some of the Midsomer Murders - don’t tell anyone I said that btw.)

What are the odds? Doubt it was you. The pants seemed all wrong.
What is average height for a male?
Comment by nailpolishblues — Monday November 28 2005 @ 6:47 pm
Slightly taller than me :) 180cm?
Comment by Mark — Monday November 28 2005 @ 6:54 pm
Yeah, well…really? Heh.
I still think the pants were wrong. And this guy looked like he was about to die under the strain of his backpack.

Woah, there’s books of Wire in the Blood? Super.

The Tony and Carol ones are pretty gritty and grusome but good stuff except when she…agghhhhhh….

Comment by Mark — Tuesday November 29 2005 @ 11:20 pm
Ta for the tag. I swear I’ll do this as soon as I’m functioning like a normal human being again.
