Every day I look at the world from my window

Shitty cameraphone makes a welcomed return for this entry, but probably never again as I had to send this picture to another phone to get a copy via e-mail and it's impolite to constantly ask this task of someone. By the way, we're apparently in for another baking summer - hurrah for the hot hot summer! I'll bitch endlessly about it once it's underway however. Right now though I'm deliriously happy by the idea of a heatwave. It's already feeling unusually warm for early March. Speaking of March, is it just me or is the year going really fast?Dragonette performed a private set for industry and visor-wearing types yesterday evening at the ICA.

This horrendous cellular snap on the right gives a vague impression of how abound in wonderfulness everything was.

The wonderfulness was heightened by the dissemination of copious amounts of alcohol and a little hand bag of pleasant playthings. In the bag (amongst a mixtape, spindial and badges) was quite possibly the most genius piece of merch, ever. For Londoners at least.

The song is called 'I Get Around'... and what says 'I Get Around' better than an Oyster card? Absolutely nothing. I'm still in awe with this, I wish I had two.

It is said all too infrequently - Dragonette are amazing.

You might as well let yourself, considering you'll be a popsicle this time next year.

This is getting dangerously close to the 50 Cent song.

Party in the city where the heat is on
All night on the beach till the break of dawn
Im goin to miami
Welcome to miami

That reminds me - what's all this "Stella kills Ben" balderdash about?

Does she actually kill him? I just read about how she unleashes a campaign of cruely against him as revenge for his being a little cunt. Isn't she the scariest fucking character EVER? In the history of mankind. Did you see her yesterday? So hot. It made me think how there really aren't enough paedophiles in soaps.

Apparently...



Did you read any of my post? I was having a life yesterday.

I have a backlog of episodes to watch on TV On Demand anyway. I'm up to the episode before Kevin's return. :(

omg. ARGH. I have to hide whenever she's alone with little Ben :( :(!

Do you mean the episode where he's by the sea? Don't bother. It's the single worst episode I've ever seen, and you have to see some truly vomitous kissing scenes. Though some parts of Kevin's emotional acting border on the hilarious. And there's the heart-wrenching one-episode appearance of "Jed".

I read the entries, but they're all like this to me now:

Dragonette εκτέλεσε ένα ιδιωτικό σύνολο για τη βιομηχανία και την γείσο-φθορά των τύπων εχθές το βράδυ ica. Αυτή η φρικτή κυψελοειδής θραύση στο δικαίωμα δίνει μια ασαφή εντύπωση για το πώς αφθονήστε στο που όλα ήταν. υψώθηκε από τη διάδοση των άφθονων ποσών οινοπνεύματος και μιας μικρής τσάντας χεριών των ευχάριστων playthings. Στην τσάντα (μεταξύ ενός mixtape, spindial και των διακριτικών) ήταν αρκετά ενδεχομένως το περισσότερο κομμάτι μεγαλοφυίας του, πάντα. Για τουλάχιστον. Το τραγούδι καλείται "εγώ παίρνει γύρω από"... και τι λέει ότι "παίρνω γύρω από" καλύτερα από μια κάρτα στρειδιών; Απολύτως τίποτα. Είμαι ακόμα στο δέο με αυτό, επιθυμώ ότι είχα δύο. Λέγεται όλων πάρα πολύ σπάνια - Dragonette είναι καταπληκτικό

:( x 100

Maybe you should learn the language. Don't be afraid. Then again it's not as if the pictures don't speak for themselves.

Last Tuesday's Eastenders was really funny.

Peggy: Comic Relief is coming up. I need to organise something but it's not Phil's area.
Shirley (understandingly): Charity?
Peggy (irate): Comedy!

Aha.

I tried Elastica but it was too slow for me. The Killers is about as close to your side as I get. There is another mildly funny moment with Phil and Mo. [He's becoming quite the figure of fun], and ***SPOILER***

DEANO AND PAT PLAY TRIVIAL PURSUIT.

Aaw. I want to play games with Deano, it's not fair.

Am I the only one who thought the Beeb was sending out a negative message about recycling in last week's Eastenders? Charlie walking in on Mo's bust with all those cardboard cigarette boxes was telling us all to not recycle for fear of incriminating our loved ones.
