cruising


Listening to some old music lists which haven't seen the light of day for a while... it's good. Music always does that thing where you listen to it and remember some moment at which you were previously listening to the same song, and something happens... all the feelings and memories come back.

I know this isn't special, everyone has it... it's really cool is all. Like smells bringing back memories. Oldest sense and all that.

So. I am grappling with Delueze and Guattari, fun as that always is I swear the guys have a crack addiction or something sometimes. I mean, I love a lot of the things they say, but really - "All we talk about are multiplicities, lines, strata and segmentarities, lines of flight and intensities, machinic assemblages and their various types, bodies without organs and their construction and selection, the plane of consistency, and in each case the units of measure... Not only do these constitute a quantification of writing, but they define writing as always the measure of something else."

See, I get the last sentence, or I think I do, but I have no idea what all the other stuff is about. Weird-ass.

Pic of me and Jade, for the hell of it:


So, Jimi Hendrix and 'All Along the Watchtower' it is, right now =]
In fact, let's be boring and type this playlist:
1. Lauryn Hill - Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You
2. Ella Fitzgerald (except it's so not her) - You Give Me Fever
3. Christina Aguilera - Beautiful
4. Wheatus - Teenage Dirtbag (makes me think of Mena Suvari)
5. The Killers - Mr Brightside
6. The Pixies (hah!) - Where is My Mind?
7. Simon & Garfunkel - Sounds of Silence
8. Beck - Loser
9. Jimi Hendrix - All Along the Watchtower
10. The Donnas - Take Me to the Backseat
11. Goo Goo Dolls - Iris
12. Aimee Mann - One
13. Dido - Thank You
14. Eminem - The Real Slim Shady
15. Josh Abrams - Addicted to Bass
16. Radiohead - Paranoid Android
17. Janis Ian - Seventeen
18. The Eels - Novacaine (for the soul)

Now, that has gone and wasted a good 5 minutes, writing that down. My work here is done!
