so its been a while.
SO, once again I’ve utterly forgotten to post things on and around here, tsk
Jimm.
Well, its all go for me again, life, for once, just continues to get better!
I’ve decided to put aside ALL of my musical ventures, and start a completely new
one. This includes the band I’ve been in for the last 4 years, I haven’t left,
but I’ve told the rest of the guys not to expect me to write much in the near
future.
This is because, my new venture (provisionally called, A Manor, Lone) has taken
off quicker than I could have imagined.
We first practiced a couple of weeks ago and its the first time all of the guys
had ever been in the same room, let alone played music infront of each other,
needless to say, it went much much better than expected, everyone got on
immediately and we finished that practice having written 45% of a song, so it
was a case of “lets roll with this” and we practiced again last week, this time,
a guy came down to try out vocals, difficult because we had no lyrical content
and no cover songs picked …. it didn’t matter, while we jammed out the
previous song, he wrote lyrics, came up with a vocal pattern, and after warming
up for us by playing acoustic guitar and singing awesomely, he proceeded to blow
us all away with his vocal abilities and he was immediately our newest addition.
So, with that in mind, I’ve written up a game plan for the next 6 months. Lets
hope it goes down well with the lads! (watch this space!)
Aside from that, work is going well, I now earn more money than I used to at my
old i.t job, for less hours and for doing work I enjoy way way more, only
downside, I have to work two sundays a month … I’m sure I’ll cope though =P
My best friend had a kid at the end of september. That was strange. He’d kept it
secret from eveyone until the day his gf (again, who he’d kept secret) gave
birth. It was a shock, but I’m proud of him and his little girl is absolutely
gorgeous.
I’ve officially been single for a year, for the first time since I was 16 …
its strange but I like it. I’m kinda seeing someone, and although I like her and
(I think/hope) she likes me, I don’t feel like I want to commit to anything at
this point in time. Plus her job title is way cooler than mine and this
intimidates me =D
I still live on my own with my lil ball of fur Odin, he never ceases to be a
constant source of happiness and is still the reason I feel the need to get up
in the morning and go n earn money. I can’t wait to spoil him rotten for
christmas. (I’m talking 100′s of £’s!)
So thats about me, I still don’t talk to my dad, I still see my mum once a week,
I still support Liverpool FC (finally my faith is being rewarded this season)
aaaaand yeah, fundamentally, I’m still Jimm =] all be it a vegetarian one for
now.
If you got this far, you’re awesome and I love you! Have yourself a Beer!
