forgotten bits of amusement from this weekend...

on the way to the band thing Friday night. Jon had picked me up and we were driving in to pick up Dale and were then going to head over to Mike's from Dale's house. on the way to Dale's, i mentioned the Terry Hall/Electronic connection, cos i knew he'd care. at least, about the Terry Hall part. XD but i had to explain Electronic *again*. this is probably mostly paraphrased, as my head is NOT a bloody tape recorder (despite the alleged resemblance...XD). but i've got the gist of it, i'm sure...

Jon: ...i don't know if i'd like them. that Smiths thing. too angsty for me. you can't tell me the Smiths weren't incredibly angsty.

me: ...but i wouldn't say Johnny was the main source of all angst. that was mainly Morrissey's gig. f'rinstance, his stance on listening to other people's music...and how it was absolutely unthinkable that anyone in the band could go out and buy, say, a New Order record. simply cos it might push the Smiths' record down a notch, someone having bought that ONE EXTRA record from the competition.

Jon: ...that can't possibly have been a good environment. O.O;;;

me: indeed.

Jon: ...but, say. that's a really good idea. THAT'S IT...i'm decreeing from here on out: you are NOT allowed to listen to anything other than SWEK music anymore. i don't care that we don't have records out...you're not going to pollute yourself by listening to other people!

me: O.o;;; (trying not to laugh)

Jon: ...oh wait, we don't *have* any of our own music! nevermind...XD

perhaps it was funnier at the time...? XD

and what else...hrrm, there was the moment when Spaz decided we should go buy a farm and raise a herd of alpaca. and i swear there was something else i wanted to mention, but i can't remember it just now. --;;; oh well.

i got most of the pictures from Acen scanned up last night...just have to scan up a few more, then it's FTP fun for me and also trying to make them into some sort of coherent thing for public consumption. XD in the meantime, i give you photos of the hair, as it is now.

as a bonus, you also get to see my favourite coats. some of which i've mentioned here randomly, cos i'm very proud of them. a) they're cute, and b) i think all three in total cost me around $40. so i'm proud of my skills at *something*. XD i also appreciate these pictures (though Spaz doesn't, and he's the one who took them) cos they let you see me...but not, all at the same time. (yes, i am indeed pale, but i'd like to think i'm not quite *that* pale. XD) and the colour of the hair is accurate to what it is in real life, unlike the last pictures i showed you. be entertained. if not by that, by the fact that i obviously like what others consider to be bad photography. XD

(and yes, i know the furry coat is missing a button. thing is, with something like that, you're going to end up replacing ALL the buttons, cos you're not going to find one that exactly matches unless you're very, VERY lucky and/or have a whole lot more time on your hands to search than i do. so i've been on the lookout for a set...in addition to the 6 that should be on the front, there are two more on the back. if anyone knows where i'd be able to find some big, nice antique coat buttons in a set of 8, i'd be eternally grateful if you'd let me know...sankyuu. ^-^)
