Pass me the pipe, Pippin

It's snowing. I haven't seen snow in three years. And they are playing the soundtrack of "Lord of the Rings - Return of the King" on Classic FM. The song is called Twilight and Shadow. We've been listening to alot of classical music. And we don't go out much. It's cold, we have no hats or gloves... and we don't have anywhere to go.

If you put clothes on rats, they would start looking like the people on Oxford Street. Maybe the rats would be more polite.

Why do people take baby-strollers to Oxford Street, when there are thousands of people everywhere? It was like a rock concert, without the beer or the good music. Fucking pikeys.

(but if I keep going back, I must be a pikey too - or a masochist. Whatever, just gimme some food. I'm hungry again.)

My credentials for treekie geekness have come in. I've been accepted. As my first task, I started a stamp album. I'm not joking. They look pretty! So pretty...

I'm off to make some tea. Then I'm coming back here, reading your journals, being rude to you and maybe, just maybe, I'll tell you about the dwarves in my cupboard.

can i be just a lil' bit rude to you? ;o)

pikeys are a new word I learned from some English LJ people... there's this look here in England which is really popular: track suit pants, adidas or nikes, track suit jacket, shaved head (or the girls pull their hair really tight back and wear tons of makeup) - they are everywhere!

blergh.

Hahaha...why what's wrong with Oxford st? It sounds NYC all over.

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2003-12-30 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
It's like NYC... the biggest shop street in London, full of department stores, mega music stores, tons of tourists and people everywhere... I can't take it anymore.

:)

[identity profile] ickycrawlything.livejournal.com 2003-12-30 10:24 am (UTC)(link)
So don't go there anymore..when are you leaving?

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2003-12-31 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
i try not to go... but there are always the bookstores! And the music stores...

we don't know when we are leaving... i was hoping to move back to Canada this Summer but it's now looking unlikely.

[identity profile] ickycrawlything.livejournal.com 2003-12-31 08:14 am (UTC)(link)
I thought you were going on vacation...Brazil?

[identity profile] commonpeople.livejournal.com 2003-12-31 10:11 am (UTC)(link)
oh yeah! I still haven't bought my ticket. I'm going in February, to see my mom and her family. But what I would really like is to go back to Canada, because it's where all my friends are and it's where i want to live...

Lune, have a great New Year's Eve... may all your wishes come true in 2004.
