Watch this space - something is being created in the background. It’s been a while hasn’t it? I’m keeping this face simple for the time being, hence the theme change (god dammit it is hard to find a theme I want to stick with for more than five minutes!). Will release various imaginings shortly.
Below is a collection of photos from my night of flower pickups the day before Valentine’s Day. The biggest day in a Florist and Flower Couriers calendar. I’ve done flower couriering for an entire year before (from Valentine’s Day 2006 - Valentine’s Day 2007) and have many stories to tell. It is a very interesting occupation where lots of unexpected things happen almost on a daily basis. I decided to do one more day, kind of in honour for a friend who passed away before the new year who was involved in the flower business, and also to help out as I had experienced the mayhem before and the more driver’s the better! Anyway, on to the photos…
Apologies in advance for the quality of some of them, still learning the ropes of my 20D, and I’m using a laptop to edit and upload these photos. Hurray for no colour calibration! Enjoy the pretty colours… (please be patient as the photos load - 4.4mb total - click to view large)

As the title says, it’s been a piss weak seven days on many fronts. Have had no desire to update jammit on any level. I don’t think I even loaded it up once during the course of the last seven days. Talk about a lack of discipline. I’ve had a lot on my mind this last week. I haven’t felt this unmotivated in a long time. And just as I am typing this, listening to the track below, the following words sing out to me “don’t you worry, everything’s gonna be just fine… this won’t hurt”. Such melancholy. And to think I’ve been in this frame of mind almost the entire week. Funny, even my horoscope mentions this current mood. Specifically today, maybe that’s why I’m writing this.
I’ve been extremely bored and nothing has piked my interest more than a few degrees. Yet I guess tonight has… especially musically. Trust music to send those positive vibes through your system. Current tune: Sounds From The Ground - Speedbumps. Watched American Gangster last night, thought it was a little drawn out but overall, a great movie. When I think about it now, it was even inspirational. At least from a business perspective. All these thoughts racing through my mind. I’d just like to for once, pick one of them and stick with it till the end of the idea.
Right now, my immediate concern is financial. Secondly, creative. Thirdly, my overall ambitions and goals. Somehow, I feel as if I should be combining the second and third, and the first will look after itself. Now to brainstorm in my dreams… where we are all gods. More generic internet linkage updates shall follow shortly.

A new year, a new beginning. Leave the past behind where it belongs. Second chances that have occurred on more than one occasion have been abused and now all is lost. So be it… What will be will be. The coming in to the year 2008 and the hours preceding it were some of the craziest in my life if not just for the fact that the whole night was entirely unexpected, in both good and bad ways. Love and hate, it was all wonderful! Continue reading ‘oh welcome 2008′
I’m in one of those moods where not much can cheer me up… feeling alone in this universe, disappointed in myself for idiotic actions today and lack of self control and everyone I seem to be chatting to is comforted by someone or something. Sure there have been offers of guilt free pleasures of a certain nature, but such moments of pleasure are fleeting and won’t slow the waves of much too serious thought that are surely on their way.
