oh man they're so cute. hannah kills me - those curls

\(^o\) (/o^)/ (ENBB), Monday, 25 April 2011 13:23 (thirteen years ago) link

also yeah the rooney picture is hysterical

\(^o\) (/o^)/ (ENBB), Monday, 25 April 2011 13:24 (thirteen years ago) link

the curls are growing out a lot now and she has conducted the odd experiment with straighteners :(

A Zed and Two Nults (Noodle Vague), Monday, 25 April 2011 13:25 (thirteen years ago) link

Awwwww.

I will never understand the whole obsession with straightening. I would kill for curly (even wavy) hair.

Anyway, she's still awesome.

This thread articulates dark corners of my life w' a luminous commentary and makes me well up w' tears of sympathy and obscure pleasure. God Bless NV.

i feel like a major douche when i rev this up again but on the other hand it's more positive than my other impulses i guess so hey

sometimes playing "Madame George" on a loop for hours seems like a real viable plan

Deeez Nuuults (Noodle Vague), Friday, 27 May 2011 08:59 (thirteen years ago) link

always been scared to listen to any other Van than Astral Weeks cos it's so perfect and the only other one i know is "Brown-Eyed Girl" which is kind of a wee bit pish and a lot bit played

I have never heard that Washington Phillips before, what is that instrument? It's...er...ethereal?

i can't, i won't (Ned Trifle II), Friday, 27 May 2011 09:05 (thirteen years ago) link

it's beautiful innit? i think there's still some debate about exactly what he used: an instrument that sounds like a fretless zither. This instrument, which has been variously identified as a Dolceola, a Celestaphone, two Celestaphones tuned in octaves attached side-by-side, or a Phonoharp (and also is considered by some to be an instrument entirely home-made by Phillips) creates a unique sound on these recordings that makes them immediately recognizable.

about 16 or 17 extant tracks and every one of them diamond dust

Thread and Washington Phillips really, um, set me up for the day. No, 'set me up' clearly the wrong phrase, but chimed so exactly with the general drift of my moods over the last few months? year? that it makes it feel less debilitating.

'here comes the night' with them is p great but i've never been a van man tbh

You are right to be afraid

when use becomes abuse (S-), Friday, 27 May 2011 10:22 (thirteen years ago) link

thanx for confirming my prejudices.

man, i managed to complete and send a job application that i thought i was too hungover to do, especially since i have a mortal fear of forms. pretty sure this justifies me in doing knack all for the rest of the day.

Deeez Nuuults (Noodle Vague), Friday, 27 May 2011 11:07 (thirteen years ago) link

i definitely agree it justifies it, i also have a mortal fear of forms and a mortal fear of sending things off so the completion and sending off of a form in a single session is a good day's work in my world of form fearing people.

just think, you could be a proud part-owner of 100,000,000,000 debt right now if you'd only fill out the forms

suspect that yr addict isn't so much addicted to a chemical as they are addicted to the imaginary possibility of love

banter panchali (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 5 June 2011 11:58 (thirteen years ago) link

is that the same thing as the possibility of imaginary love, or is the latter what you just settle for in the end

♪♫ hey there lamp post, feelin' whiney ♪♫ (darraghmac), Sunday, 5 June 2011 12:57 (thirteen years ago) link

good point. does anybody actually go for the possibility of the imaginary? that feels even more defeated i think

two weeks pass...

Full of that "just on the brink of tears" maudlin happiness today, been floating like an ambivalent ghost for months. Okay years maybe. "Percy's Song" keeps looping round my head and filling me up with...something.

My line manager is a lovely woman who takes care of me and puts up with more of my bullshit than is reasonable tbh, but sometimes when we're liaising with tutors or other professionals she just comes out with these well-meaning but crass cultural stereotypes and I cringe a little bit inside and I feel bad for cringing a little bit cos I know she's on the side of good really. But it's tiring and niggly to always be around people who don't quite get it, whatever "it" might be.

Of course maybe I'm just a control freak. You stare into the unknowable cave of Other People's Brains for a while and man does it stare right back into you.

SB OK (Noodle Vague), Friday, 24 June 2011 11:50 (thirteen years ago) link

Think the difference between happy maudlin and bleak depression is when you realise that whatever feels like its missing was probably never really there in the first place and you stop chasing and enjoy the alien but familiar surroundings.
