I am in the mood to add to my collection of songs called Julia! It's quite a small collection currently ... I have Silver Sun, I have err Chris Rea (I think ...) and the John Lennon/Beatles one (i am actually named after that one ... duh ... cheers, dad ...). any ideas?

You Are Somewhat Logical

Ok, so didn't get the majority of questions right But you did answer some pretty tough questions correctly Logic may not be your strong point, but you hold your own!

Ah!

Since I seem to be hooked on the stupid questionnaires, I decided to make my own. How sad is that?

My very own bullsh*t questionnaire about Myspace!

Your favourites list

1. Say something nice about the number four in your Top Whatever.

That'd be Helen Love! I have never met them/her in person, but they're one of my favourite bands in the whole wide world. Ever.

2. Now say something horrible about number seven in your Top Whatever

I can't!

3. Has number nine met number one? Again, in your Top Whatever

Adie has never met Angel, but heard lots about her (whether she likes it or not!)

4. When did you last speak to number two?

If I make number two Silvia, since she is in Mikrofisch ... A couple of days ago.

5. Do you think number eleven would be able to program a video recorder?

That's Helen Love again! I am sure she could program a VCR!


About Myspace

1. What is your pet hate concerning Myspace?

Spurious and rubbish bands trying to add you!

2. What is the point of Myspace?

To be 15, have a stick-on emo fringe and show off your dubious guitar skills whilst jumping up and down on your bed maybe?

3. How many Myspace accounts do you have?
Two. One for me, one for pony.

4. If Myspace was to come to live as a person, who would it be?

Rupert Murdoch.

5. Name one good band you found on Myspace that you would actually bother going to see if they played in your town? This has to be a band you hadn’t heard of before Myspace.

AWWBLOT I suppose. And I have seen them live. Very good they were' too.


6. Have you got any idea what these Myspace Groups do?

Nope. I run two of them I think but haven't checked them in ages.

7. Have you ever had to block anyone?

Yes! One was because I wanted to block them, the other was an experiment (sorry, Andy).

8. ‘Myspace is a people version of Top Trumps. Discuss.

I agree. My Mel beats your Andy on fashionsense and speed.

9. Are you guilty of posting ‘Thanks for the add!’ comments and then never contact these people again?

Possibly. Not that I remember ...

10. Did you register with your real name when you first signed up?

Obviously not. I do not want to be found that easily. With a surname like mine, it's best not to use it as there's only me with that name in the world.

The people in your friends list

1. Would you say you’ve met the majority of them at least once?

Yes! Good, innit?

2. Have you ever added anyone or any band in the vain hope they would make you look cool and interesting?

No.

3. How many people from school have you managed to unearth?

One! And that's quite enough.

4. How many of your ‘friends’ are animals?

Just Angel.

5. Do you suspect some of the people on your friends list do not actually exist?

Well ... Andy would have to be a hologram, so is Lawrence Piddock.

Miscellaneous

1. How did you choose your default profile picture?

It was the best one I could find. Or so I think, anyway.

2. Have you fibbed anywhere on your profile?

Not on purpose.

3. What does your little tagline say and how did you come up with it?

Pretty In Pink! Because I LOVE that film LOTS.

4. What do you think ‘Tim from Myspace’ is doing with his other hand, eg not the hand giving the thumbs up?

He's making an omlette.


5. Have you deleted ‘Tim from Myspace’ from your friends list?

No, I'm worried bad things will happen if I do.

6. Whose Myspace blog do you actually bother reading?

In all honesty ... Daniel's/Ssslithe's. Because he's in Tokyo and that makes for a fun read.

7. Why the hell did you sign up in the first place?

As always, Quirk is to blame.

8. Has your account ever been hacked?

Yes! My favourite book section suddenly linked to a strange Rastafarian cult. I kid you not.

9. What do you think really goes on when you get an error message saying ‘system failure’ or ‘this profile is undergoing maintenance’?

There's an office full of people laughing. At my expense.

10. What is your profile song and why did you choose it?

I chose not to have one, because I find these themetunes quite irritating. When you have something else playing, it somehow manages to blend in with that. Grr.

Anyone want to come see We Are Physics at Bloomsbury Bowling with me tomorrow?

Please please work you stupid thing!!

*edit*

Ok, so now it's bloody STUCK it seems. It won't, like, update itself ... hmmm ...

I shall finally get onto this last fm thing. Tough I'll probably never figure out how it works. Stay tuned ...

*edit* Okay, fallen at the first hurdle. It won't let me install it as I appear to be using a proxy connection and have no recollection what my host is! Help! HELP!

*edit* I have now wrestled Last FM into submission ....

This better works ...

not only is my msn buggered, I also just discovered that my email address does no longer seem to be working. all the stuff addressed to julia@toyracer.co.uk is meant to go straight to my yahoo account. albeit, it does not. easyspace have messed up somewhere along the line. I have no idea how long this has been going on for, because how would I know if anyone has emailed me if the stuff does NOT TURN UP!!

if anyone knows anything about easyspace mail forwarding, let me know ... in the meantime, should anyone wish to email me at home, please use toyracer79@yahoo.co.uk

Thanks ...

does anyone know why my MSN won't let me sign in? I suspect it is to do with the fact I went from an ADSL modem to a wireless box thingie. Checked the firewall, it's not that. Tried connection settings but not getting anywhere. Help!

Right, where was I? Hello kids, it's time for the friendly entry!

Weekend was good. Friday I watched School of Rock on video. It's a bit rubbish, but watchable.

Last night I went to Ms Blue Gooseberry's barbecue. Had a very nice time, although I only knew a handful of attendees. It was good to see Tom and Jenny again! I went home doing the 'drunk in charge of a bicycle' thing, with no lights, after midnight, riding on the pavement on the wrong side of the road. Ha! Gosh aren't I so enterprising?

Today was mostly spend dreaming about scooters. I found one i REALLY like



It's soooooo pretty!!!!! I want it!!

I'm at work and I am cold. And tired.And confused. And hungry. Ner ner ner.

Getting a bit bored with LJ at the moment. Hence the lack of updates (hey, nobody reads this crap, anyway).

This week I have mostly been panicking at work, waiting for my tax return (I have almost given up hope with that one ...), worrying about money (what's new?) and trying to clean my flat (and failed, of course).

But (lo and behold!) I did manage to go to a gig last night! The lovely And What Will Be Left Of Them? (if you like pop groups with drum machines and boy/girl vocals, I highly recommend you have a listen on Myspace or something!) and Untitled Musical Project - whom I hadn't heard or seen before but really liked! They were pleasantly loud and angry and I have now added them to my Myspace (note: I am very selective about what bands get to be on my Myspace and don't add people willynilly!), hooray!

The other two bands were a bit dodgy ... the first one were rather old and had at least one song with the riff from On A Rope in it (why oh why?). But, all credit to them for somehow fitting on that tiny stage - I swear they had at least 10 bandmembers!

The other band (called something-Paris I think) were trying to get some sort of Futureheads thing going, but couldn't quite pull that one off! It got to the point where I dreaded the moment they put down their instruments yet again, to launch into yet another bizarre a-capella-harmony thing. There's only so much you can take!

I also held up an entire toilet queue for rather a long time as I was convinced there was people in both of the cubicles because I swear the doors were locked. Albeit, they were not and I made everyone wait for nothing. Whoops! Note to self: there is no such thing as an engaged cubicle. From now on, kick the door in straight away, no matter what.

Remember these things?

I have created one (Jane Pain!) and adopted another (Aaron Boredom).

I thought these have been banned ages ago ...
