Royalties Overdue

Listening To: beats pound the rhythm of the rain?
Watching: My Name Is Earl on c4 catchup. but - and this is important - not on my netbook. bbc iplayer is the only available catchup service that works in linux, as it's purely flash video: nice one, beeb, but a big Boo Hiss to c4 and itv (i'd love to be able to watch Cadfael on my laptop, but it's just not meant to be, Little Derek Jacobi)

i came on here to moan at the internet, in that wit-treading post-humorous, find-the-punchline-if-you-can way that i have, but between starting the aforewritten, intricately-constructed, hyphen-filled sentence and winding my merry way to the conclusion thereof, i forgot what it was that was vexing me.

so, then, to a list:

1) i'm happy about being able to watch AVP2 tonight. yes. yes, i am.
2) i'm thinking of bringing in the phrase post-saying-the-word-post, but i can't decide if the whole thing is one long hyphenated word or an actual phrase. also i believe it's use could be very limited.
3) i used to love twitter, but now the world know about it and jonathon ross is using it, i'm not so sure.
4) i have a 50mm, 1.7 lens and i'm exquisitely happy about it
5) i'm sick of the cold
6) but i like the slightly lighter nights.
7) i got a drum pad midi-interface, but now i have rhythm-block, which i think mighty unfair
8) i've given up red meat, and hope to fade out white meat at some point.

Wondering About: what stephen fry's french accent sounds like to the french
I Wish I Could: be bothered to change the strings on the guitars that i still haven't changed the strings. of. on. er.

i don't know what that last bit of grammar was doing, but it ground itself to a halt, so i think i'll leave it be for a while to catch its breath.
