googling

Things that annoy me part 2343
1. Googling yourself to find that there is yet another person with the same name as you
2. Already knowing about the person 5 years younger than you, living in the same town, born in the same hospital with the same bloody name as you
3. Not appearing top of the search results. (at least the top result is dead)
4. Suspecting that there are actually two newly web-active people in america with your name.

Pah. I guess I’ll have to do something about this to ensure that anyone actually looking for me, won’t get the wrong me. Especially since one of the other mes lives in the same town.

Unconventional watches


These watches look very cool, though I guess they’re not really that practical. But then, they’re not meant to be practical and are instead a kind of commentry on the relationship people can have with their watches.

From the
Mr Jones Watches website
:

“Summissus revives the traditional memento mori - an object designed to remind people that death should be prepared for at any time. Summissus has a mirrored display that reflects the wearer and alternates the time with the statement, ‘Remember you will die”. In this way Summissus fosters humility in the wearer.”

The Summissus is the watch on the left in the picture. I guess, aside from “fostering humility”, it could also make people worry less about other things. Day going badly? Don’t worry, you’re going to die some day. :)

Walking with a ghost

I first got introduced to the Tegan and Sara song “Walking with a Ghost” through a mashup by PartyBen that mixed it with a song by Mylo. It’s a really great song that I love (well, right now I do) and it’s also been covered by The White Stripes.

I don’t know what it is about this song, but it’s just so catchy and singalongable no matter what version I’m listening to.

Two things

one. I dislike the colour red a lot. I really don’t like it. What I don’t understand is why do I keep buying red clothes? I have a red coat, red skirt, red t-shirt and I just saw this red cardigan and I want to buy it.

I really don’t get it. I’ve even had hair that shade of red.

two. Why am I still awake? In Birmingham I went to sleep at midnight and woke up about seven in the morning. Here, I seem to be back to my old secondary school sleeping habits of going to bed at 2-3am and waking up between 8 and 9.

CRAZINESS.

And stuff.

O que que e esse amor, d’agua

omgsotired. Went to birmingham for [info]yartek’s birthday shindig. Highlights include:

  • pass the parcel
  • religious themed and confusing themed jokes in the parcel layers
  • millennium falcon transformer being the greatest transformer i have ever seen
  • various people jigging about to meatloaf
  • [info]cave_gary suddenly finding himself on the floor

then there was sleep.
then this morning i got up, went to church, visited [info]sethi and [info]rick_at_710, went back to [info]yartek’s to pick up my umbrella, popped into the lush shop in birmingham and hopped on the train home with [info]doom_bees and then arrived at home.

to find out i seem to have been roped into being the voice of reason in someone else’s masterplan for setting up a youth group at church. apart from the various not entirely thought-through flaws i’ve spotted so far, there is also the seeming lack of young people at church to also contend with.

at least i had delicious food when i got home too. mmm chocolate pudding
