Links

It's funny how you discover good music on the 'net when you're not even looking for it. Last night via a few links I discovered a splendid band from LA called Warpaint, for those in the know, this is old news. As I said in an earlier post, I'm out of the loop. So how did I make this discovery?



It began with the film 40 days and 40 nights. It was on TV and it caught my attention because I ♥ Josh Hartnett. It also stars Shannyn Sossamon. In the film they meet in a launderette. I wondered if Josh Hartnett dated her in real life? Out of curiosity and because I can, I google her name and check her wiki page which mentions she was in a band called Warpaint. Hmmn another Hollywood star - wannabe musician, I think to myself. She's not in the band anymore but I'm still intrigued. I click on the link and on another link which leads me to their myspace page, I watch their music videos and I'm rather impressed. I read more about them and it turns out they are signed to Rough Trade the company my Craigie works for. Nice! I pat myself on the back and congratulate myself for discovering Warpaint. The End.

222 Special

It's Saturday and it's my weekend off - Yesssss! During the week I never have time to make breakfast because I stay in bed for as long as possible leaving me just enough time for shower, make-up, coffee. My work is literally across the street from me but still I always manage to be 5 minutes late everyday. Okay I know I should set my alarm 5 minutes earlier but I'm set in my ways. So anyway I woke up this morning, stayed in bed for about an hour, eventually got up, put T4 on and made breakfast and freshly brewed cawffee. Mmmmn...

I was disappointed with my fried eggs cos' when I cracked them the yolk broke and one of the eggs was bubbly. Don't you just hate that?!

3 Amigos

Had a pleasant evening with some sweet chums I used to work with and who I don't see often these days (partly my fault). Had one of those days, then met these two refreshing lovelies - we had a laugh, a cocktail, came up with a plan and everything was all good again.

My fridge is full, okay my fridge is small but anyways fullest it's been in a while...
...And how much was it? Nowt! It was all for free, a health cafe unfortunately closed down - (part of a company I work for) and we were allowed to take some stuff. I took as much as I could carry in the small brown paper bags. Sweet! Don't know what to do with the fennel and butternut squash though. No idea. Time to google for some recipes.
