My little madhouse

New LJ

2007-09-14T17:45:30Z

Just a note to everyone. I'll be changing my lj to spectralwing so you can add me as a friend there if you like.
I'm just doing a big upheavle and this lj will be gone soon.

Woo!

2007-09-09T00:31:39Z

Well, apart from my painkillers giving me strange mood swings, I have some good news! :)

Recently I found a friend of a friend, and to cut a long story short, I have a date with him :)

I know I told a lot of people that I had decided to stay single for the foreseeable future because I didn't feel comfortable with anyone anymore.
However, this guy is rare, he's nice, kind, polite, mentally stable and fairly cute and I feel totally comfortable with him. I do not have any anxiety or anything :D

Well, I can't wait to meet him :)

Things and stuff.

2007-08-31T23:17:22Z

Well, I've moved into my new place. Seems nice enough. Well anyway, here is a quick rundown of things that have happened to me recently.

Today, September 1st, is my birthday. I'm 23, I feel old.. Not that 23 is some sort of a struggle to get to, I just feel "old" :)

Next up, my new jacket got shat on twice by birds in town, the next day, I got my £100 return from my bank.. I guess bird shit is lucky.

After a few drinks I ended up having a conversation about music and it's relation to LSD with a guy called Ben in the middle of the road outside my house at 11.20 for no apparent reason.

Good things, ooo good things!

2007-07-01T23:00:27Z

Well, a few good things have happened to me over the past two weeks.

I've finally managed to get my yellow sash at Kung Fu, yay me.
Secondly, after many, many years of searching and diging, I managed to get a copy of every single "Animals of Farthing Wood" episode. Since all the hard copies have been removed, deleted or destroyed, it made the job even harder.

Weee! Some good news at last!
I had my appeal tribunal today, trying to get my disability benefit back.
And, they agreed with me and have sent a court order to the DWP, saying that they have to reinstate my disability benefit and have to pay me over £2000 from backdated payments!

New poem

2007-05-30T23:48:19Z

This is a new poem I found. I sujest you find more of his stuff, it's fantastic.

ROGER McGOUGH
The Way Things Are

No, the candle is not crying, it can not feel pain.
Even telescopes, like the rest of us, grow bored.
Bubblegum will not make the hair soft and shiny.
The duller the imagination, the faster the car,
I am your father and that is the way things are.
When the sky is looking the other way,
do not enter the forest. No, the wind
is not caused by the rushing of clouds.
An excuse is as good a reason as any.
A lighthouse, launched, will not go far,
I am your father and that is the way things are.
No, old people do not walk slowly
because they have plenty of time.
Gardening books when buried will not flower.
Though lightly worn, a crown may leave a scar,
I am your father and that is the way things are.
No, the red woolly hat has not been
put on the railing to keep it warm.
When one glove is missing, both are lost.
Today's craft fair is tomorrows boot sale.
The guitarist weeps gently, not the guitar
I am your father and that is the way things are.
Pebbles work best without batteries.
The deckchair will fail as a unit of currency.
Even though your shadow is shortening
it does not mean you are growing smaller.
Moonbeams sadly, will not survive in a jar,
I am your father and that is the way things are.
For centuries the bullet remained quietly confident
that the gun would be invented.
A drowning surrealist will not appreciate
the concrete lifebelt.
No guarantee my last goodbye is an au revoir,
I am your father and that is the way things are.
Do not become a prison officer unless you know
what your letting someone else in for.
The thrill of being a shower curtain will soon pall.
No trusting hand awaits a falling star
I am your father, and I am sorry
but this is the way things are.

Your Score: Humphrey Bogart

You scored 33% Tough, 19% Roguish, 33% Friendly, and 14% Charming!

You're the original man of honor, rough and tough but willing to stick your neck out when you need to, despite what you might say to the contrary. You're a complex character full of spit and vinegar, but with a soft heart and a tender streak that you try to hide. There's usually a complicated dame in the picture, someone who sees the real you behind all the tough talk and can dish it out as well as you can. You're not easy to get next to, but when you find the right partner, you're caring and loyal to a fault. A big fault. But you take it on the chin and move on, nursing your pain inside and maintaining your armor...until the next dame walks in. Or possibly the same dame, and of all the gin joints in all the world, it had to be yours. Co-stars include Ingrid Bergman and Lauren Bacall, hot chicks with problems.

I have nothing to say this week, so here's a cute kangaroo!

Strange Dreams.

2007-05-24T21:16:23Z

Okay, I've had two strange dreams now, I thought I might share them with you. Maybe you lot know more about dreams than I do.. Or maybe they are just silly dreams.

Okay, first dream. It really helps if you know a Japanese wrestler called "Tiger Mask". It started as a cartoon in Japan in the 70's I believe, later, the Japanese pro wrestling fedoration turned the character into a real wrestler.

Anyway.. I was a wrestler with a dragon mask called, wait for it, "The Red Dragon".. And I was the tag team partner of Tiger Mask (he wears a Tiger Mask... maybe that helps)..

Second Dream, I was still the partner of Tiger Mask, but he said he was going to retire. He gave me his mask and said "Your the new Tiger Mask"..

Funky, but strange. :D

Some drunk old git..

2007-05-19T18:12:44Z

Hiya everyone.

Well, looks like my training came in useful.
Today I was nearly a victim of assault. Some drunk bugger came out of a put and grabbed my arms, giving me a mouthful of drunken abuse, gods, his breath was terrible!

Anyway, I managed to turn and throw him off me. Good thing I started Kung Fu a while back no? He managed to get to his feet and was hurling rather crude verbal abuse at me, I considered following it up with a kick, but his 10 mates came out and dragged him back into the pub, adding to his abuse as they did.
So, I called the police on them, and they were all dealt with ^^.

Afternoon all

2007-05-17T01:51:05Z

Or morning, whatever to whomever in whichever timezone your in ;)

Why am I up this late? Worrying mainly. It's it strange how modern life in the Western world can have us worrying about things that aren't really that important, but, pray on your mind something rotten in an attempt to get you down in some way. Don't worry, I wont let it, I just find it interesting.

Err, I hardly put anything in here, so I think I will just put some random stuffs from my week in and see what you think.

I think I need to get a new computer chair. This one isn't doing wonders for my back, and there is a strange stain on it that I hope to hell is coffee..
Also, if I sit on it without my shirt on, well, if you haven't seen my back hair, lets just say it's like peeling Velcro whenever I get up @.o.

Err, Kung Fu is going on well.. Why is it that I can do everything I want to do when my Sifu isn't there.. It seems any ability for rational speech or action goes right out the window. Mind you, I hope to get up to my next sash soonish, go me.

Next up, chewing gum.. Isn't it amazing what it can do these days?
I've gone through a packet, at my teeth are whiter than normal, and yes I do brush twice a day.

And on the one bit of amazingly bad news.. My favorite Mexican restaurant closed down, bastards :P.

Help Needed!

2007-05-08T21:21:51Z

Hi all. I am trying to find a song, "Sora" by "Yoko Kanno"... I can't seem to find it anywhere.. If anyone knows where I can get it, please post below, thanks :)

Mod Wolves..

2007-04-18T18:59:24Z

To arms men!

2007-04-06T02:18:33Z

Which Muskehound are you?

I've been buggering about with swords too much, thats my problem..

Ack

2007-04-01T14:20:30Z

Well, I have been doing Kung Fu for a few weeks now, a few lessons a week, though I am not going this week due to money issues (I get paid the day after).

It feels like my muscles have gone into atrify... Was a bit embarrassing when we were doing press-ups mixed with squats and my right shoulder collapsed.
However, the main cringe right now is that, my Sifu plans to make all the men in the class do the splits (both side and box) in a few weeks.. My inner thigh muscles are killing me o.O

Holiday anger.

2007-03-17T11:22:50Z

Am I the only one that thinks Saint Patrick's days should only be celebrated by the Irish?
We know exactly why people over the pond celebrate it.. No, not because they had a great-great-great-great-great Irish cousin.. Because it's an excuse to get disgustingly drunk.
Do you seem them celebrate Saint Davids day? Saint Gorges Day, no celebrations on Saint Andrews day? No, because those holidays are a time to look back over your countries history and reflect on the good points and mourn the bad points.
I apologies to real Irish people, who celebrate their holiday however they want.
And to the aforementioned Americans and people all over the world.. Your not Irish, your American (or wherever).. You have enough national holidays already, don't bugger another countries national holiday as an excuse to get pissed.

Additions to Joke names.

2007-03-15T04:59:26Z

Looking over my friends list and listening to "I'm sorry I haven't a clue" is not a good combination. So here are a few joke names from people in my friends list. All for shits and giggles.

Vexen - Irritated Englishman
Huskyteer - Crying sled dog
Louve - And Anglo-Jewish toilet
Underwolf - Below the normal wolfy standards
Avon Deer - Mail order Stag
Pebble pup - Very small beach dwelling dog

Maybe more to come... when I find more friends >.>

Names

2007-03-12T23:02:34Z

It's a note I'm posting to all my friends. At a point in the future, when it's fiscally viable, I will be changing my real life name.
Why?
Truthfully, with all respect to my father, my name makes me cringe. I hate, really hate, being called "Al" or "Alex"..
It's always reminded me of an oafish idiot.. Every time I hear it, I cringe, simple as that.
Since now, I believe myself to be an educated, intelligent adult, I believe now, i have good grounds to alter bits of my life I really hate :)

Clearing up confusion

2007-03-10T03:57:21Z

People have asked me,
"Are you a Kangaroo.. or a Werewolf?"
Well neither, I'm human.
However, my "persona", for people who know what I'm on about, is a Kangaroo. However! I like playing a werewolf sometimes :D

Saint David!

2007-03-01T17:52:07Z

Happy Saint David's day to all my Welshmen :)

Here is a card from Louve, rar :)

2007-02-24T18:28:36Z

Why do I have the most vivid and bone chilling nightmares?

.... I really should write them down, get them published.

Burger king

2007-02-20T01:41:37Z

I don't normally eat fast food.. But the new Angus Burger at BK is the win!

Warning, Rant.

2007-02-10T00:59:40Z

Right, because I can't really shout at anyone, including the fucking arse-cunts that this post is about.. I just wanted to get my emotions out somewhere safe.

I recently went to a medical, regarding my Incapacity benefit. For people outside the UK, this is the money the government gives you to live on when you are classed as disabled.
I got the result back today and they have, without warning, cut off my benefit.. Three days before I said I would pay rent and clear my account with my debt collectors.

These bastards don't seem to class going slowly blind as a disability anymore, seeing as they only asked me one question about the sight, and the rest was about depression and fuck like that..

Thank fuck I have JUST about enough money to pay rent.. But really, now, I have nothing left to live on, so I can't really go out anymore.
I have sent my appeal in to these people, but I doubt they will actually pay much attention to it.
I was planning to go to University next year, but this seems out of the question now, because if this appeal, as I think it will, falls through, I will have to try and get some shit arsed job somewhere that pays near to fuck all.. That is IF someone will take me because I still have to tell them that I am on the disability register..

Excuse my language but, CUNTS!

Update!

2007-01-16T20:05:37Z

Well, not much to go in this one, apart from that fact that I am trying to quit smoking again, go me.

The only other thing is a request to everyone out there. I know most of the people that read my LJ are furs, but anyway, if this does not concern you, you can quite happily skip over this bit.

In future, please, please don't hug me, kiss me or cuddle me unless I ask you too first off. I really want to save sex, cuddles and kisses for the person I am with, which is no one right now, however the day may come, and until then, I wish to remain untouched.
Thank you guys and gals ^^

Well...
