Dear Internet

How am I meant to get anything done when you give me things like this, this and a new look here.

There’s talk of presents, Zombies, (why did I capitalise that?), and bombarding someone with requests.

I can’t stop bopping to this:

I’m thinking of this: piplotti

I’ve been preoccupied with people who use their words as weapons.

I’m planning more thoughts for the day.

Meanwhile getting distracted here:

See? I’ve been busy.

Lots of love,

RPs

Did anyone else watch the series?

I used to make my dad watch it with me, ’cause I’m a scaredy cat.

This looks like I could manage it though:

Worth a look

I meant to post it yesterday, but the front of the Irish Times was quite the delight.

ACT ONE. Eastlink Bridge. Afternoon. Mother and Boy.

Boy: I can’t see it.

Mother: You can.

Boy: Where’s the bridge?

Mother: Just look at it.

Boy: That boat there?

Mother: No, the other boat.

Boy: Are we on the bridge?

Mother: No. This is the Eastlink.

Loooooooook!

Words and Swords

The Daily Daydreamer was on twitter earlier talking about how someone on the train had a flicky knife. So i was telling her how something similar happened to me.

I was on a train probably from Galway to the Midlands, when some girl across the aisle starting talking about knives and then pulled out a samurai sword.

sword

The train was pretty quiet so there were minimal sharp intakes of breath. She waved it around a small bit, said where she’d bought it, told her friend it was the best in her collection and then put it back in it’s sheath.

Wouldn’t happen nowadays.

It’s because I might just be 14

They’re strictly mine

I was thinking the other day about the ownership of songs. I heard someone talking about something and I realised it was mine.

Hear this?

It’s mine. Stop it, because it’s mine. It was mine from the first time I heard it on CD, on my bus to college. I met the sound and I got it. The harmonies, the lyrics, the momentum. They’re all mine.

The FLips are mine too:

Same with this:

“Pam Shortt’s broken both her legs and I wanna dance with you”

And..

“My name is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die.”

There are just a few, they’re mine. I don’t like when anyone else says oh yeah, that’s OK, it’s like you’re dissing my friends or my ma.

They’re like old friends that other people try to steal from me. I *own them* and a select few others.

I can’t let anyone take them. What’s next?
