Hey, it's listening log time. I get to have thread all to myself for the whole week where I post nothing but what I am doing and what I am listening to. I'm sure this is going to be lots of fun! You know what? I am going to start it now as I can't get no sleep. Also if I put it somewhere it will help me find it as something has to be somewhere to be found or else if it was no where it wouldn't exist.
I did listen to a little earlier but it's hardly an hour in yet... awww man. Okay, my bed is in the other room so I will fall asleep with a CD on or something. Got to get up by 8 though. Perhaps it would give me the chance to listen to an album which may have been gathering dust. I'll see.
Well... what better way to welcome those dreams with a little... SIAMESE DREAM! It's album by Smashing Pumpkins.
I went for breakfast at Pacific Nurseries. It is a garden centre near Streetly. Outside there are lots of plants you can buy. Today it is raining though. There is also a wooden hut near by which sells strange cheeses as well as crackers and chocolate.
I had mp3 on some of the morning. I think I had the songs 'Bezerk', 'The Monster' and 'Rap God' on most of the time all on repeat. They are all from the new Eminem album. I think they are better than 'We Made You' and 'I'm Not Afraid'. I try rap along with 'Rap God' when no one is listening. Very fun.
Now it is almost 1:00pm. I am happy today because it is bank holiday. It has gone too fast already.
As I am taking part in this thread thing I have become very concious of what I am listening to. It's far too tempting to play to the camera's (well... people reading) and delibrately pick things they haven't heard. I don't how people have done this without putting on a show.
I could have sworn you'd have started with a Manic Street Preachers record.
So, when are the Manic Street Preachers on? _________________ "And can’t you see you’re in on it?

Okay, so I listened to this album called 'Naked City' by John Zorn.
It has a saxophone and electric guitar. I think it's improvised, not 100% sure. Every so often the whole thing becomes a mess like someones throwing the instruments against a wall.
It's fun sometimes. Perhaps on tracks 'Latin Quarter' and 'A Shot In The Dark'. Mostly the album was violent and frightening. Didn't feel welcome.
Right now I am holding my umbrella I got for £5 from Matalan. I just cut the tag off and it's the first umbrella I have owned which has a sharp pointy end. All the other ones I have owned have been stubby little things.
Oh I got a box of crackers today! They are these really posh looking ones which all have fancy names. I have a little cheese to put on them. I have some brie as well as Blue Shropshire. The last of my Blue Stilton went away last night.
As I do sometimes I went onto the NME website today. There were no news stories of interest. Coldplay did get the fastest selling album of 2014. I think One Direction got the same for 2013. No news on new releases this Monday. I may pop in HMV tomorrow after work to see.
Too much stress for tomorrow. Been getting things prepared for the past hour and while I am almost know where everything is it doesn't calm me for tomorrow.
I have to meet someone and talk to them. About things. In work. I'm going to be out from 7-5 and this isn't my strong point.
I think in the next hour I am going to be lying on the living room floor doing nothing like I do when I can't relax and end up doing nothing for hours. If I found something to do I would have something to do rather than nothing but now I don't know what to do. It's all very stressful.
