where is my mind?

Hello friend, as I write there is a shard of Pez in my throat, it is a bit painful. Note to self: Pez are not so exciting you need to guzzle them down especially when you don't even have an exciting movie character dispenser. I used to have one that I think was of a Ham-Ham. Incase you don't know what a Ham-Ham is let me enlighten you. They are the hamsterish characters populating the demented Japanese cartoon Hamtaro which came into the world when everybody was into Hamsters thanks to Hamsterdam and The Hamster Dance and equally irritating things.


I only know about this because, at my first primary school there was an unescapable craze that involved making these things out of plasticeine. People got so seriously into this, there were houses, cars, birthday parties and every kind of food and household appliance. There were a series of unsolved "Ham-Ham murders" where someone who no doubt didn't know how to make them decided to squash other people's out of spite. You're probably thinking this is a bit weird and things like this never happened at your primary school, but I went to a hippie school with about thirty students and a crazy art teacher who made us play musical chairs to the Sex Pistols. (True story) Anyway I was talking about Pez before that little detour into the bizarre history of my life and I must say that while this wouldn't hold any peices of sugary goodness it is most hilarious, why is Fozzie Bear so suited to being disabled and homeless?

Oh, I finally got around to doing the Hottest 100 thingamajig, I voted for Boat Behind by Kings Of Convenience, then Digital Love by Yves Klein Blue and All Is Love by Karen O & The Kids and other songs I cannot be screwed typing right now. I don't actually listen to triple j much anymore, it's really like every radio station, they play some certain songs until they become really annoying then play them some more, and I get confused between all these mediocre (sorry) bands that sound the same like The Temper Trap and Passion Pit. I think I confuse those two because they are both to do with an emotional term and something that you can fall into. This is weird but Passion Pit's name always makes me think of the python orgy in "Anacondas". Me and my 90's B-Grade film knowledge -_____-".
Anyhow, speaking of triple j, I'm very excited about a band called Deep Sea Arcade right now, like a lot of people I heard the song 'Lonely In Your Arms' on the radio and I promptly became obsessed. I never likened them to The Beatles but I read a whole heap of comparisons and I guess they kind of are and the singer has a creepy Paul McCartney voice. I don't know what I mean by creepy, just reminds me of a gay, stoner who works at a ghost train at the show.
I don't know. Wow, so many unintentionally good segues in this post! Today has been just fine for me, only in the morning did I feel a bit sad, before I was even properly awake, it was just a haze of gloom sitting in my chest that was gone after a while of walking around concentrating firmly on remembering the words to my favourite Pixie's song which is incidentally the name of this post.
Love, peace and forceflex.
