Frank Turner - St. Christopher Is Coming Home "Monday morning comes a-crawling in from another weekend choked with cigarettes and sin, and I've been busy so much lately, that every time I get some time to spend I end up drunk or sleeping in. And I miss you; you're busy too. We call each other up when we're messed up, and say we'll meet in the new year, but it's perfectly clear that we'll do no such thing, come the spring."

From the OOF: I'm on fine. I love when all the problems happen while I'm asleep

Haha, awesome target for the destruction Ike. Very nicely done.

I has no extravagant happy birthday picture so... HAPPY BIRTHDAY GOGO!

That really is an "abstract" image

Wow?

I need shock absorbers for my chainsaw. My hands are bloody aching!

Happy birthday

Frank Turner - Love, Ire & Song

Happy birthday Timo

Well, I got stung by this again Luckily I was just doing a transport in 36, which lands in about 4 minutes.

I've come to the semi-decision of taking a year out from university. At school I wasn't taught any knowledge as per se, but simply how to pass exams. My school also didn't offer some subjects that are taken as assumed knowledge for my course, which leaves me in a sticky situation. It's probably best I take a year out for private study and work, and drop from MEng to BEng when I return to uni. Or at least that's the plan until my parents convince me otherwise. Also, 2 new songs in the works. "Wasted (Youth)" and "Edging Closer to Sideways". If I hadn't lost all the songs I wrote in high school I'd have a decent album by now Of course, there's also the slight issue that I'm lacking in the drummer, bassist, and singer departments. "Wasted (Youth)" isn't quite as introspective as the title may suggest. It's partly about myself, but largely about Scotland as a whole. My sister was put on antidepressants towards the end of last year (the same ones my mother is on), and another friend just told me yesterday that he was put on them last month. "Edging Closer to Sideways" is a bit of a sensitive issue, hence why the title (and lyrics) only slightly allude to the subject matter.

I have a problem. I have a flat for next year, but no flatmates. I can't afford £960/month by myself. Everything's just kinda fallen through, and I can see myself having to move back home. Not good, given that I don't see myself being able to commute 70 odd miles to uni every day. Especially given that I don't even own a car anymore. Drop out of uni? Year out somewhere? My life is epic fail.

Well, I have a fun day ahead. National galleries then "modern art" with the girlfriend. At least it gets me out the flat

Daddy let me use his credit card They wouldn't take my debit card because they're funny Americans For some reason American companies like us to pay with methods that let us spend money we might not have, but don't let us pay with methods that only let us spend money we have. And I do have the money, because I have over £700 in that account! Until rent day Never before have I come across someone so reluctant to take (less than) £6 off me.

I went to download Audiosurf and they wont accept my debit card And daddy wont answer the phone <_< Anyone want to lend me $10?

Spare crystal, need metal EDIT: Make that 350k for 700k

That's some pretty impressive plasmas. My deut mines are pretty small, so I don't have enough to build many plasmas, especially with robotics factories to build. I'm shipping res directly where it's needed for now, but when numbers get bigger I'll start chanelling it all through a main planet. And Borg, you can easily cover that one up by just joining us in 36

What are your defences looking like to protect that production? My standard is 200 RL, 200 LL, 20 HL, 20 Gauss, 20 Ions, and shield domes. I can build plasmas too, but there's no pressing need just now. My neighbours are largely ignoring me.

Happy birthday mate

So, how's everyone getting along now? I've got a decent spread of planets in G1, then a couple in 2, 3, and 4. All with robotics factory 9 and solar plant 22. Solid defence but not OTT, and just enough cargoes to move res about for building. I think I'm also lucky enough not to have anyone spring up with a moon nearby, which is handy. Carry on as is for the next couple of months, then fleet in summer.

Ah, so it is you. I noticed you floating around the ranks next to myself and youngjoshua. Nice 0 loss hit, shame you gave the moon though.

I don't think anything's really affected me like that. I did accidently turn on the TV when Loose Women was on yesterday. It was bad. Very bad.

Happy birthday Gin!

My uni 9 account will probably still be in VM when the clocks roll forward here. I rely on my computer telling me when the clocks have changed, so I always screw up that fleetsave the night before. And given that my lectures are pretty much over this semester, I'll just grab an "extra" hour's sleep when the clocks change.
