Listening to: Fi-Lo-Beddow
Reading: Possibility of an Island, Michel Houellebecq

Having those moments where I'm not sure where my head is, and where it should be, can be, at the right time, quite liberating. Right now it isn't the right time at all.

Thank you to the person who invented ibuprofen.

Someone told me yesterday that I looked like Owen Wilson. I had to confirm that this was indeed a complement.

I have a swollen eye and I have no idea why it is swollen so. I look either incredibly tired or punched in the eye. (Technically it is not the eye, but the area surrounding it)

I have acupuncture today. I am also going to a music quiz. As I do every Tuesday.

Listening to: Art Brut
Reading: Possibility of an Island, Michel Houellebecq

I have been walking this moring. It is a bit nippy outside today. I have a slightly mushy head this morning thanks to the help of beer, Southern Comfort and almost half a pint of Drambuie. Ouch.

I have enjoyed a mildly uneventful week, and am still loving working in a bookshop, and am now getting excited at the prospect of seeing Harry Potter tonight in the comfort of my favourite cinema.

I had a date during the week which was, um, uneventful to say the least. Quite an enigma she was, and quite a bit younger than me (well six years to be precise). She also has an enormous amount of money. But i'm not sure rich farmers quite do it for me. Money certainly isn't an afrodisiac. Aloofness on the other hand certainly proved to be.

I had a fry-up yesterday.

I might have pizza at Mono tonight before Master Potter.

My best friends have finally hooked up. Yah!

Here is a question we have all pondered at some point:

How fat do you have to be to become bulletproff?

Cheerio.

Listening to: Theme From The Chalets

A little update from the world of Ross. I have a job, working in a bookshop, which is great because I am surrounded by beautiful books all day, and it is flexible and allows me to continue my training to be a driving instructor.

I am so, so tired at the moment, and have already evacuated my innards through my mouth this morning. I need sleep. Lots of sleep.

It is raining like nobody's business today, and there is a bloody gale blowing. I am going to hibernate now. But I really want to go out and take pictures of the pretty coloured leaves blowing all over the place.



Go see the wonder of Firth:

So, I have been tagged by =EverybodyLookAtMe and that means I have to tell you 20 things about me. I'm not sure that there are that many things about me, but I'll have a go.

1. I sold my first painting when I was 15. It was called Sly.
2. I love beer too much and drink almost an average of five pints a day.
3. When I had my tonsils removed they made me take my underpants off before I went into surgery.
4. If I could live anywhere it would be Darwin in Australia.
5. I'm a lot closer to a nervous breakdown than my friends think.
6. I'm rubbish with money.
7. I'm training to be a driving instructor.
8. I hate religion.
9. I once had a relationship with someone I met online. We ended up in bed on the first night we met.
10. I drank too much absynthe in Barcelona that I went blind for over 24 hours.
11. My underwear is bright colours. Currently wearing red, white, yellow and brown pair.
12. I haven't been kissed for seven months.
13. When I was four, I overdosed on flouride tablets because I thought they were sweets.
14. When I was 20 I overdosed on paracetamol because I stopped thinking.
15. I once kissed 17 guys in one night, and my girlfriend was impressed.
16. I can't stop listening to the Chalets.

Mood: Surreal
Listening to: The Smiths

On a personal front...
I am feeling strangley calm, which is very odd seen as I am moving house over the weekend. I am still looking for a new job, but with a rather large chip on my shoulder and a bitter streak, this is quite an effort at times. So much stuff seems to be happening around me, mainly bad, but occasionally a glimmer of goodness, but in a time of such activeity, I can't help but feel all the more lonely.

On a creative front...
I have been overdosing on David Firth a little too much, but it has awoken the surreal side of my character a little more. I am even going to teach myself Flash because I'm alway willing to try something new. I have been feeling very creative, and what with all the house move, I'm getting held up a little in getting thing ready to go on here, but be patient, I have some odd little bits to display soon.

On another subject...
I still can't find anyone to go to The Rakes with next Sunday. Damn.


xx UL^TRA Ross.

Mood: Oh Hell.
Listening to: Pulp "Different Class"

Sadly, I have returned from Spain. Although the holiday itself was hardly the best time of my life, there is something about the real Spain that has such an attraction for me. I never like returning to England. England is wrong, it is abusive, and I need to stop telling myself how much I hate it, I need to do something about it. I need to leave. There is nothing more painful than feeling that you are in the wrong place. Out of place. Out of context.

Any ideas?

I have a somewhat suprising tan. I'm not sure if it suits me. I'm too used to being pale. At least my freckles have come out to say hello.

I have been shopping this morning, buying very little other than moisturiser and a book. However I did almost trip over in the Bodyshop, as I was too busy inanely staring at the girl behind the counter. She had amazing green eye shadow and green lipped glasses on. She kept smiling at me, but that just makes me all the more shy. Damn me. Anyway, she was lovely.

It seems whilst I've been away that the world has decended a little further into utter madness. What the hell is going on in America? People really can't be that evil. Work together damn you, not each for themselves. And if I read in the paper's about another rape, murder, mutilation etc filmed on some scrote of a teenager's cell phone I really am going to die of complete lost hope. End of rant.

On the up side, gig tickets have all arrived. Bluetones, Nine Black Alps, The Rakes, and the Delays. Now, to find someone to go with...

I am currently still without a job, but have the delightful pleasure of looking forward to my holiday next week. I shall be enjoying the enchanting delights of Spain's summer sun from next Friday for 12 days. I should come back a orangy shade of brown, and with a further depleated liver.

My artistic urges are beginning to return so I do predict a barrage of new photos soon. Far too overdue I hear you cry.

Some of you may know that I am editing the amazing =EverybodyLookAtMe and her autobiography which has got off to a flying start and shows much promise. If you want to read what we have then you need to ask the right person nicely and be shown where to look.

If you haven't seen this site [link] then where have you been looking. Salad Fingers is my friend.



Goodbye for now dear people

Mood: Pure nothingness
Listening to: Sleeper "Smart"

Hello. Just wanted to provide a little update on the overly dramatic and strangely puzzling world of Ross, direct from his kingdom of Ribena.

Well, to start with, having been suspended on April 19 2005 for being incredibly naughty (i.e. forwarding on joke emails at work, and emailing friends during the day) I finally had my hearing on 28 July. Now, like me I am sure, you are thinking how ludicrous it is to suspend people for doing such a small crime, something that probably 75% of the workforce do anyway. However, in the small minds of Southampton Council, this is one of the worlds biggest crimes, very similar to murder, treason, or treading on ants. I may well have narrowly missed being hung, or even made to stay working there which, in reality, would have been far worse!

So, following the hearing I was sacked. How very nice of them. I broke their rules (that nobody actually know exist) and therefore I must become officially unemployed. Great bloody timing. Just bought a house, about to go on holiday, and not feeling very well to boot. And I've just reached that point where I'm no longer enjoying being single again. Bugger.

The ironic thing is i feel so less stressed and happy for a change. Odd that. Karma will deal with the bastards. Me on the other hand, will exact revenge in a completely different way. Mainly by not giving a damn about them.

So, in conclusion, if anyone knows of any jobs for an amiable cherub like me then please let me know. There will be a small reward of a pat on the head for anyone that can help. I may even kiss you, but that really does have a lot to do with what you do (or don't) keep in your trousers.

Also, beware of the yoghurt ship. Thats all I can say.

Mood: Twitchy
Listening to: Nine Black Alps - "Everthing Is"

Hello. First things first. What a bunch of fucking cowardly bastards. Bombing innocent hard working people is pretty shitty enough, hiding behind the misguided banner of religion is doubly shitty, but what really fucks me off is that they did it at a time when the world's leaders were discussing things that actually might benefit millions of the worlds worst off and desperate people. Way to steal the thunder. End of rant.


Well, onto a matter of lighter gravity. The schedule that the delightful gave me for the week, in order to fill the voidy voidness of being bored whilst off work, has been completed. It's success is not quite accurate but close enough.

As in my previous journal I explained the completed task for Sunday of photographing a river with fish in. Now for the following days:

Tuesday: Go to a Kareoke bar and sing "I Will Survive." After you finish, drink a Machito. They're very yummy.

This did not quite happen. By 'quite' I actually mean didn't. But, however, I will put forward the alternative that I did undertake. On the musical theme of the day, I did manage (along with fellow members of Yellow Lilo, win the WilliamIV Music Quiz to the tune of about £20.00). On the beverage front, I did consume three pints of beer in the process.

Wednesday: Lie in bed all day, listening to the natural noises of your surroundings. Then, try and count them. Day is from when you wake up until when you get up because you're hungry, by definition.

This task was somewhat easier. I did indeed lay in bed until hunger forced my hand (this does not include trips to the toilet to evacuate the previous night's three pints of beer). The noises of my natural surroundings were varied and included a quantity of birds singing, a telephone ringing, the door bell ringing (which went unanswered due to my stubborn bed day), the wind did blow the tree opposite and caused some ruffling noises which were audible.

Thursday: Thursday is a very special day, so go shopping. Buy some article of clothing that's.... yellow.

This is today. I did go shopping. I purchased one album, which I am currently listening to (please see above). Purchased one parking ticket for £2.10. Purchased one pair of yellow underpants. Purchased one session of acupuncture and now have several bruises to proove said acupuncture. In conclusion, yellow underpants means mission successful. If you wish to see them, then you will need to chase me, remove my belt, and watch as my jeans fall to the floor. That is not a challenge by the way.

And all throughout the days think of what music would be the soundtrack to your adventures. On Friday, make a CD with the tracks representing your week. Then make another copy and send it to me.

This task is nearing completion with the following daily soundtracks:

Sunday: "Liquid Lips" The Bluetones, and; "Red Reciever" Sons & Daughters.

Monday: "Romantic Rights" Death From Above 1979, and; "Rock & Roll Queen" The Subways.

Tuesday: "Love Punch" The Chalets, and; "Fuck Me Mummy I Feel Ugly" Mother and the Addicts.

Wednesday: "You Started a Fire in the Heart of a Wasted Life" Echobelly, and; "22: Death of all the Romance" The Dears.

Thursday: "Cosmopolitan" Nine Black Alps, and; "Club Foot" Kasabian.


End of incredibly long journal entry.

Listening to: Interpol - Antics

I have been kindly given a schedule for the week by which is very kind of her, because to be wholly honest I really haven't got a clue what to do with myself just at the moment.

So, for Sunday my task was as follows:

Sunday: Go for a walk where there's a river with fish, and take pictures. Make sure there's no people in the shots, unless the people are girls in pretty dresses.

And this morning I went for a little walk. Although I was unable to find any girls in pretty dresses (what's new!), I was able to snap these

Another task for the week was to:

And all throughout the days think of what music would be the soundtrack to your adventures. On Friday, make a CD with the tracks representing your week. Then make another copy and send it to me.

So far I have two tracks that have so far soundtracked my day and they will be the following:

"Liquid Lips" The Bluetones; and

"Red Receiver" Sons and Daughters



Edit:

Although I have no specific tasks for Monday, the following tracks are today's soundtrack:

"Romantic Rights" Death From Above 1979; and

"Rock 'n' Roll Queen" The Subways

Reading: The Insatiable Spider Man - Pedro Jaun Gutierrez

My crikey, I haven't done a journal entry for months. Come to think of it I haven't done very much for months. Crisis.

I've been snowed under with selling lots of music on eBay. Making sure that the world gets the opportunity to hear my record collection in exchange for suprisingly excessive amounts of hard currency.

I happened upon a great new band last night. Went to see the The Cribs at the Joiners, but was more taken by the support band The Chalets. They are definately one to watch - look here [link] . I have an ear for these things. I'm off to see Sons & Daughters [link] on saturday night and they were another band I took a shine to after seeing them as a support, I think it was Franz Ferdinand, oh hell I can't remember, details, details.

As per previous protocol, here are some people and pictures to have caught my little eye over the recent period:

Hello.
Its Tuesday and I'm lost. Having trouble finding my away around this week. Not been at work for two days, and my mind andbody has degenerated into that sad state of affairs that I always dread. The 'daze'. Also associated with head injuries and bums.

It was my BIRTHDAY last Sunday. I alsways keep it quite. I have my reasons why. But it has passed (not without the usual anti-events) so I can talk about it now. My friends are great - they have bought me a day out learning to do the bobsleigh. I hope that I don't have to wear one of those gratuitous lycra suits! I'd best start watching Cool Runnings again to get myself prepared. Now where's that egg....

As per usual tradition, here are some of things that have caught my eye over the past weeks:

Listening to: The Others - The Others

I have decided to do some early spring cleaning, so please bear with me whilst I tidy up my dev gallery and various other bits. Things will certainly dissapear, reappear and be intermitently smattered with new stuff.


I've been thinking about various ideas, and one that I'd like, is if anyone would like to illustrate my poems I would be really interested to see what would be the results. Photography, sketches, cartoons, manips? Interested?


I've been very impressed with some of the beautiful narratives in the following deviations. Some real honesty and tenderness. Really inspiring. Go see. Go comment.

Listening to: Echobelly

Walked around town. Held hands. Three purchases: polo shirt(black with horizontal white stripes), shirt (black with gold and white detail), underwear (trunks, 3 x white, 1 x navy, 1 x grey, 1 x black).

One pint of bitter, two pints of shandy, watched football, half eaten chip butty. 2-0.

Struggling with not smoking. Started drinking green tea.

Mood: Grinning
Listening to: Babyshambles

Suprisingly enough I do not have a hangover. Feeling very industrious. I think I have cheeky eyes today.

I've been trying to tie some of my latest poems together into some sort of greater narrative, so be prepared for somekind of cinematic attempt to paint a greater story in little insights.

Been working on a collaboration with and it is quite intruiging not knowing what line is coming back at you. Leading and being led at the same time.



Big thank you to my friend Steve who bought me the most odd, sick, and absolutely fascinating book for Christmas. If anyone can tell me what 'Dendrophilia' is, or alternatively what 'Axillism' is then I will be very impressed, and slightly worried? A book with all the answers you never wanted to know!

Its about time I pulled my finger out and put on a new entry. This last week or so has flashed past so quickly; now my feet are bruised from the landing.

My head has not stopped. Firstly my dad was rushed into hospital and then underwent open heart surgery. My sister has been home from spain for the week. Work has become terrible. I've just not stopped, and now that I have, I'm not sure how to get going again.

Jump leads?

Went to see an amazing gig on saturday night. If you haven't seen Kasabian, then you need to be asking yourself why not. It brought back memories of the really special Stone Roses and Primal Scream gigs. The light show alone would have impressed the queen.

Check out some of the other bands i've been enjoying recently:

Listening to: Jeff Buckley; Mystery White Boy

Dear Person reading this entry,

Firstly, doesn't it really annoy and patronise you when somebody writes you a letter and the first thing they write is "I have written to you..."? I can see that you have written. Well done. Congratulations on that vital information I may have missed.

Secondly, I am beginning to compile a rather large quantity of spontaneous photos and snaps I have taken over past few days. Be prepared for lots of snippets into my odd take on things at present. I hope to gain more tomorrow night before I start playing with them and showing them off.

Thirdly, I have this overwhelming feeling of anticipation today. Something is going to happen. Something explosive. Recently things have been really difficult. Work has been opressive, stressful and damn-right damaging. This has led me to question a lot about things around me. People (one in particular) has made a complete mug of me (but I am now waiting for the karma to come around and silage on her fan).

Something is about to change. I can feel it. I have this evil, world conquering grin today. Perhaps its my new trainers. Perhaps it is that huge full moon. Perhaps, just perhaps, something is about to explode.

Listening to: Morrissey, You Are The Quarry

Feeling rather exhausted with it all today. I've been doing so much thinking that I'm all thinked out. Running on empty.



Everything seems to be very confusing at the moment. Work, plans, bills, her (who). Stumbling upon this little vacuum in my life has, strangely enough, made me feel more confident about my creativity; hence the poems I have put on. And I am going to finish off a few more before tomorrow.



Have you ever analyzed things too much?

Can you?

Feeling a little washed out and beaten up. Could even be washed up and beaten out (nods at those who know).

Just had acupuncture this afternoon and feeling a little bruised. I'm sure needles were not supposed to put into feet or shins or hands or heads??? Ironic thing is, I'll feel great tomorrow.

So I am defeated.

A moment of clarity has blown into my confusion. It may just be the eye of the storm.

I have made a decision not to put up with being the whipping boy any longer. Time to find a new job. Now. The choice has been made by default. The letter has been typed. Now I become dangerous.


Fireworks continue to explode outside, in a backward celebration, a peculiar tribute to our nation's most famous terrorist. Failed terrorist.
All that can be heard is the sound of small shrill bombs that fill the night. This is what November smells like. It is intoxicating.
The sky turns a dirty colour with the smoke, a reminder, like the rising ashes of a funeral pyre. Masking the colours that dance across the sky, patiently waiting for the bang to catch up. Bang.
Silence pauses and breathes in the moments of darkness. A welcome relief from the uncertain chaos.

Listening to: The Dears, No Cities Left

Still recovering. Another mindless day has almost passed me by without my noticing. Its almost a routine. The norm. Essential.

Had moments of joy and astonishment at the weekend. Saw The Others play live. It should become law to see them. Witness and contribute to the anarchy and the randomness of the situation. You know it's been a good gig when the Police arrive. It was almost like a moment of freedom had arrived to scare off the dust and litter that had accumulated at the monotonous doorstep of my life. The chance to go 'Raaaah!', but it soon passed, just as night follows day, and coke follows whiskey.

I have had my thoughts confirmed: the management at work are evil, they have had their spines removed to attain such a 'high' status, and in order to confirm their own status and 'power' they decide to rain on the 'little' people like me.

I have become a number, a figure on a budget report, a thorn in the side of monotony, steam rollered by pencil pushers with sensible shoes.

This must end now.

I search for some sense of vengeance to rain down upon this madness like a shaft of frozen urine propelled from an overhead plane.

I've just got back from the sunny coast of spain and am still admiring a quite suprising tan that has arrived on my usually translucent skin. Don't white bits add comedy?

I've always been a little obsessed with time, and my work really usually is quite obvious in my attempts to capture moments or illustrate the way I am affected by passing time. I've never been short of inspiration, as my work is all inspired by the world behind my eyes. Its a very pretty place I can assure you.

I plan to put as much of my photography on as I can, and sift through my sketchbooks to help put context to the photographs by allowing you all to see what sort of things were running through my head at the time. I also look forward to receiving comments on some of my text that I aim to get on here as soon as I can give some order the the countless post-it notes and disorganised rambling that lay strewn in secret hiding places.

Now a little scenario for you all to picture...I'm off for a pint down the pub and to pretend that it isn't motivated by my need to show off my suprising tan. Make of me what you will.
