The plan slowly falls...

Well, one of us involved in the planed London trip, and it isn't Chris, doesn't fancy Bodyworks. It will be badly lit apparently. Cock. He doesn't have any ideas himself, just doesn't like ours. Maybe we'll go without him. Also, my hopes that someone would join me in going to the Stone Gods concert (The Darkness spin-off) have been dashed, so I'll be rockin' out alone, again. Ordered my ticket yesterday, £13.50 - reasonable, after all the crap from Ticketmaster, £20. Can you believe it? The last gig i went to was the Sex Pistols in November '07. I never go to gigs anymore, partially because the are expensive, but also because I'm getting bored of going alone. Matt used to go with me sometimes, but as discussed in the last entry, I seldom see him. I might go to Hot Leg (the other half of The Darkness) too, but may not. Don't know why I've got all this sudden interest in what The Darkness did next, I was never really that into them. Christmas Time (Don't let the bells end) was an absolute classic though. One day I hope to write a Christmas hit.

Squash last night, I managed to win one game, by one point, but it went downhill after that. I developed a stomach ache, and got a bit bloated. Chili for supper. Still, was good, I am very slowly improving I think, I'm even going to buy a racket. After squash there was the possibility of the pub, but that didn't materialise. That was OK though, as it gave me the chance to catch up on the latest episode of Lost, as well as the "gay" episode of the fan film series, Star Trek Phase II (formally New Voyages). It was good, not as good as the previous episode though, World Enough, and Time. The problem with the show, and strangely for a low budget non-profit fan production, is that the production values are actually much better than the majority of the acting.

Today's plans include the gym (hamstrings, calves, cardio and core today - an unusual combination I know, it's like the leftovers from the rest of the week), some guitar playing (a couple of my songs could really do with some lyrics, Good Times, NWOBHM and Bendy Immigrants (working titles) in particular. Bendy Immigrants also needs a single note melody section of some sort, perhaps a harmony), and the book I'm writing needs some work. I'm trying to write at least 1000 words a day, which isn't much but for me its a realistic target I normally meet. Recently I have started jumping around a lot as a write, not literally - that would be silly, but writing a chapter from this section, then one that will eventually come eight chapters later. Hopefully it won't get too disjointed, as I have a novel plan, a basic timeline that I slot the chapters I write into.

The inside (and outside for that matter) of the car also needs washed, but it's cold so I wouldn't be surprised if that never happens. Talking (writing) of the weather, it snowed a bit last night, even started to settle, but then it stopped. I was so disappointed, even though I knew it would be so, as the weather told me. Bit windy today. It's rubbish, because I really like the great outside, but in this cold weather its just miserable, the only benefit is that I don't have to wear sun cream. I can't remember where to put the ' in it's, so sorry if it's (there we go) in the wrong place. I think it's only when it's short for "it is", but it could be the other way round. Anyway, winter is crap. I'm so looking forward to summer, not that I did anything much last summer, when to Croatia which was nice, but the summer before I did stuff. Get my shorts on and hit the beach, that's what I want to do, and play tennis in the midday sun - foolish, but something really awesome about it. The sun, not being thrashed by my sister.

Well, hopefully some sort of social event will materialise for the weekend, got work tomorrow so at least that'll be some money.

Later.
