Back to these hours
Well I've been on lates the past week, but I was getting rides home a la [info]tariqa  last week, and this week I'm not as she has work in the mornings, and it's hard to go to sleep right away once you've walked over half an hour in the night.

Anyway, my Star Wars ultramarathon is going ahead it seems, it's so official I made a Facebook page for it as I don't have anyone's cellphone numbers in my new phone. There's limited couch space, so if you want in, you'll have to wait and see if there is any, which is unlikely.

I'm gonna do Tariqa's meme thingee. I hate calling them memes. It sounds silly and I'm not even sure it's a totally accurate name for them, which is why I tag them as 'internet surveys'. Which sounds even sillier.

1. Name: Dan. It could have been Reece, but mum vetoed it, and let my father the guy who got her pregnant give me my middle name. Yeah, thanks a lot.

2. Age: 27. When I was younger I was convinced I was going to die at 27, just like Kurt Cobain and every other self-disrespecting rock star. I thought it was going to be in a car crash. Well, there are only about 13 days left for this to happen, and one of them is going to be spent in front of the TV watching six Star Wars movies, so it's looking good for 28.

3. Location: Somewhere in this satellite pic.

4. Occupation: News online editor for 3 News. It's not online news, it's news online. There is a difference.

5. Partner: Tariqa - nearly four years now! Wooo.

6. Kids: None yet.

7. Parents: This is a pretty dry 'meme', huh? I'm getting tired. I'm gonna stop now.


TOP ALBUMS OF THE PAST FORTNIGHT!

1. Weezer - The Red Album
2. Coldplay - Viva La Vida
3. My Morning Jacket - Evil Urges
4. Weezer - The Blue Album
5. Nine Inch Nails - The Slip
6. REM - Accelerate
7. Portishead - Third
8. Radiohead - In Rainbows
9. Manic Street Preachers - Gold Against the Soul

I listened to Gold Against the Soul the other day for the first time in ages, and fuck, that album rocks. It gets treated unfairly, really. It's definitely the most polished album they ever did, but the heaviest at the same time, at least musically.
