A song for a Saturday and probably Sunday and perhaps Monday...
What I'm Looking For
Well I don't know what I'm looking for
But I know that I just wanna look some more
And I won't be satisfied
'Till there's nothing left that I haven't tried
For some people it's an easy choice
But for me there's a devil and an angel's voice
Well I don't know what I am looking for
But I know that I just wanna look some more
Well I don't know what I'm living for
But I know that I just wanna live some more
And you hear it from strangers
And you hear it from friends
That love never dies, love never ends
Now I don't wanna argue, no I don't wanna fight
'Cause you're always wrong and I'm always right
Well I don't know what I am living for
But I know that I just wanna live some more
I used to be involved, and I felt like a king
Now I've lost it all and I don't feel a thing
I may never grow old, I may never give in
And I'll blame this world that I live in
I visit hell on a daily basis
I see the sadness in all your faces
I've got friends who have married
And their lives seem complete
Here I am still stumbling down a darkened street
And I act like a child and I'm insecure
And I'm filled with doubt and I'm immature
Sometimes it creeps up on me and before I know it
I'm lost at sea
But no matter how far I row
I always find my way back home
But I don't know what I've been waiting for
But I know that I don't wanna wait anymore
Looking for...
What I'm looking for...
Looking for...
What I'm looking for...
Looking for...
What I'm looking for...
Looking for...
What I'm looking for...
Looking for...
Brendan Benson
For those who might wanna hear it...

I iz swwweeeeepppyyy! @_@
I'm glad I'm not the only one.
I have no reason to be. I slept ten hours yesterday before work....
I think there's something in the air because I'm sleepy too. It just hit me, like, WHAM! I want to go curl up in the sunshine like a kitty cat.
Katherine! ♥♥♥'s and hugs!
Awww, thank you!
I would heart you lots back but I don't know how....
How goes BlogBelieve? 'Real' life?
Oops.
Kinda dammit, kinda not.
Newest victim, I mean, romantic interest just texted me and wants to eat and hang out and so forth.
Gods, having a 'relationship' again is so weird....
Hello Katherine! It's good to 'see' you! We've missed you around here!
Victim?
Hahaha. I like that. ^_^
So I shall see all of you later. I shall try and visit tomorrow. Hey, and does anyone know what happened with Redrum?
Someone finally push him too far?
I was surprised to see his blog not up anymore....
Gah, must go.
Love!
Later Katherine!
I don't know about Redrum. It is sad because I really liked Red and I liked reading their posts alot.
:(
Damn, I was playing scrubbing bubbles and cleaning the tub and I missed Katherine leaving.
Katherine, be gentle with your victim!
Smooooooooooooooke! What you doin?
I want to go buy buttons, but it's COLD outside! >.<
FASC,
I forgot to tell you the other day, thanks for leaving the lyrics to "Goodnight, Travel Well". You know how much I ♥ that song.
Today, I've been all about singing "Sam's Town" along with some Brendan Benson.
hey solly!
no worries.
and i meant to say to you a few days back re you not having a voice at the moment and not either feeling like speaking or finding the the words you want to find.
well i didn't say anything but i meant to. but then i didn't know what to say but i get you and if i can offer you a large *hug* would that help?!
i never used to hug solly. i remember the first hug i ever gave you in blogbelieve and it was ages ago and i was awkward cos i'm not so good at the hugging, but weirdly enough i am a toucher!! ie, i feel quite comfortable rubbing peoples' arms and squeezing their knees when we are sat chin wagging. but a full on, breasts against breasts, or breasts against chest full on hug is reserved for special occasions, or when i am drunk!
anyway you know i love you to bits anyway!!
Oh, FASC, you just made me laugh out loud. I just love ya so much. I know what you mean about the virtual hugs. It took me a while to do that too, and the googly faces. I still suck at the googly faces and the emoting. Mostly, I'm just really good at saying "fuck" a lot.
*pokes porch with a stick*
Owwwwwwwweeee!
Stop poking me!
Oh, I never do the winky face. I just do the RW googly ones. Smoke is the face maker, not me.
o_O
O_O
*google-eyes porch*
Hi Solly & FASC! :)
First you poke and now you google at me....
*sticks tongue out at RW*
I fucking fail so hard at gaming. I can't even get past Gamecube and Luigi's mansion. Gaaaaaahhh! How frustrating!!!
*pokes Solly's tongue*
solly i don't do any gaming!! i watch everyone else do it and offer my support!!
gotta go guys!
love to you all!
Love ya FASC!
*licks RW's finger*
You taste like Fruit Loops!
Bye, FASC! Have a good evening :)
Hee hee! That tickles, Solly!
Whatcha been doing besides poking and staring at stuffs? Did you get to go buy your but-tons?
Nope. Haven't left the house. Instead, I made a pork & potato stew and gave myself a manicure and pedicure.
What have you been up to today?
Ummmm...not much. Went to town, came back, watched some TV with Smoke and Da Rake, got lazy, and here I am.
Be back in a lil bit.
I keep thinking I should head out and do something productive. But there's really nothing that I need to get or anywhere I need to be. The buttons are for a spring jacket, so they can wait.
Bye, Solly :)
Frank's description of the Macbeth shoe he designed:
And they are so comfy...it's like God is sucking on your toes!
i'll link you to the place i saw that, but you have to be a member and log in to read it. which isn't a difficult job.
link
happy sundays porchies!!
Bwahahha, like God sucking on your toes?
That's fabulous!!
Have a great day, guys!
That's the funniest thing I've heard in a long time. Does he realize that people with feet phobias could hear that statement and come completely unglued? I need a valium! I don't want nobody sucking on my toes, much less God Almighty! O_O
Bwahahahaa!
Frank's description of the Macbeth shoe he designed:
And they are so comfy...it's like God is sucking on your toes!
ROTFLMAO!!!
Frankie is a funny duck.
Happy Monday, Guys!
morning solly!
morning porch!
it's raining and dreary as fuck here today! a very miserable monday!
have great days anyway everyone!
glad you all liked the Frank quote, he is a funny one!
Who could have ever imagined that God would have a foot fetish?
Have a great afternoon, FASC!
Not Monday again!
>_<
Why is does this keep being allowed to happen?!
RW, I think someone out there believes that Mondays are in our best interests. They see them as a preparation for Tuesday.
Me thinks they need a good ass-kicking.
I'll hold them down, you stomp their sorry hides, Solly!
Anway, despite it being Monday, have a good day, everyone! :)
Morning Socky!
Morning Porch!
it's like God is sucking on your toes!
Where upon said toes would next be found up God's nose!
>_<
OMG. No one touches my toes!!
*will not be buying godsucking shoes!*
Just a quickie!
Hope your Monday is too. =)
Hi dwellers of the porch.
I am once again ill, it's getting beyond a joke. Me and mum can't quite seem to shake it. We should put a plaque up outside our house and call it the house of snot and phlegm.
Anyway, see you guys in a few days. I'm gonna hide under my quilt inbetween having to go to Leeds to see about that teaching course and having to go to the jobcentre to claim back my expenses for the PCSO interview.
Wish me luck.
xxxxxx
Miss T, I'm kind of partial to:
"The Circle of Snot"
I hope you and your mum feel better soon. Drink lots of fluids and sleep. It's good for you.
I think my mom used to give me lemon and honey to help me when I was ill. She was a naturalist and didn't really do the whole traditional medicine thing when I was a kid.
Another Monday is over! WHOOP WHOOP! How are you Meffers?
hello people of the porch!!
hi Jenn!
hi Lucy!
indeed hello to everyone!
miss T i can't believe you are ill again!! poor you. i hope you feel better soon. it's never ending! oh and what did you think of our result against Chelsea yesterday?! Kass will be feeling sick for sure!!

have a lovely rest of the day/evening everyone!
shit sorry, HELLO PP!
i did see you, i did!
mind like a sieve!
Hi evveybodies!
Socky, I never have anything to say.
So I just say 'hi' and bugger off.
(People listen to you, even when you think you got nuffin' to say.)
Miss T, feel better soon! :(
PP, Princess, FASC, Jennicula, KI, RW, Lucy - HI!! ^_^
it's like God is sucking on your toes!
Where upon said toes would next be found up God's nose!
>_<
OMG. No one touches my toes!!
*will not be buying godsucking shoes!*
Maybe we're okay. Maybe God only sucks Frank's toes.
Hi & bye, Sis M! :D
Goodnight, Porch.
I iz very cold tonight and haz another bad headachez.
Doez thiz make me soundz Germanz?
I iz sorry about your German headache, Solly :(
Maybe we're okay. Maybe God only sucks Frank's toes.

Or they just look like they need a wash?
Morning Grills and Gruyeres of the Porch!
MissT,
Oh no! Not again!? How much longer is winter going to fool around with you, like this?! I hope this time will be the last time.
Zocky,

*apologies to Siobhan, Pixie and any other German readers!*
Sister Midnite!!
It's always great to catch sight of you! How are you? We mightn't see you as often these days, but it doesn't mean that you are out of our thoughts. =)
Same with Katherine and Jennicula!
*debates whether to ignore FASC*
Nah!
Love you Far! ;)
Have a great day everyone. =)
Happy Tuesday, everyone!
Tuesdays suck just as bad as Mondays.
>.<
Boo.
Hope you guys have a good one though!!!
Smoke,
Do you feel like God is sucking on your Tuesdays?
Bwhahahahha!
hello all!
running late today!
Do you feel like God is sucking on your Tuesdays?
haha solly!
*debates whether to ignore FASC*
oops i am sorry PP! lovely seeing you again!
hope your Tuesdays are flying by everybody!
Tuesdays are my least favorite day of the week. It's no longer attached to the weekend and therefore heading the wrong direction in fun and it's too far away from the next weekend.
My lunch is not living up to my expectations today either. Bah!
Mine was kinda yucky, too. >.<
I miss those days when that random Food Anon would come in and talk about bean burritos and green tea.
:(
And I still miss Mustard. Damn!
Hi Meffers! I'm home! Another day closer to the weekend! I know, I know, but I totally live for the weekend. Totally.
And for all the Brits, how hilariopus is that new advert for comparethemarket.com? Even funnier is if you actually go to www.comparethemeerkat.com (yes I am that sad!)Make sure your sound is turned up for full effect! Heeeee! I love Alexander! Love him. Love.
My nephew at the Australia Zoo
RW,
He's so cute, but he looks like he's not too sure about the whole deal.
hehehe!
AI is on the telly tonight! Whoop! WhooP!
Ain't he a sweetie? ^_^ He looks like such a little boy now, not a baby anymore!
He so is! Growing up so fast.
And I haven't even met him yet :(
By the way, my mother called me this evening. She said "I heard a dog got electrocuted today out on a walk and I wanted to make sure it wasn't you."
...
RW,
Tell you Mom that I said...
O_O
I will!
My mom is a bit of a nut.
American Idol is getting off to a lame start. Although a rocker chick just did a kickass version of Barracuda (did I spell that right?)
Whatchoo doing tonight?

Bwahahaha!
O_O
Bwahahaha!
I don't know why that made me laugh so hard!
^_^
Awwhhh, that poor dude just cried.
It almost made me have a sad for him.
S&V: ;P
OMG, the last due! Bless him!
This coconut ice cream is orgasmic.
X-ray FTW
I am eating Italian spumoni.
Does that hurt?
Only if I bite down hard on the spoon.
Is it yummy?
Yup, t'is ^_^
Your coconut ice cream sounds yummier though. I've looked for some here, but haven't found any.
It's Helado's or something like that. It's like, Mexican ice cream and it rules!
Apparantly, some place in Chinatown sells coconut ice cream, but I don't know which place.
I had it in a Thai restaurant once, and it was scrumptious!
It so is, RW. It's gotta be my fave!
I think I'm off for the night. AI is putting me to sleep.
Sweet dreams!
I am off too. Have a good night, Solly :)
oops i am sorry PP!
FAR! Stop that!!
*hugs FASC to bits*
I was joshing, and teasing, and winking at you, my lovely little Brit!
I really have to work on my winkie!!!
Lovely photo RW! Makes me want to feed a roo too!!!
And nice to see SS has dropped by. Shame it wasn't a pleasant visit.
Later. =)
morning all!
PP i know you were kidding!
*hugs* back!
I really have to work on my winkie!!!
haha that is what we call the 3 yr old's willy PP! he is rather fond of his! they start young these days! bless him, it's his toy!
RW your nephew is gorgeous! and yes growing up fast. i wanna freeze time so badly!
*waves* to Lucy! i've not seen that advert yet. mr bloke always channel hops during the breaks, he is becoming his father and that scares me!!
have good days everybody!
guys, i was just wondering. does anyone know the last day/date that mustard commented here?
i just found an old comment from her that i saved cos it was so great and thoughtful, and that was from October 7th. i just wondered if that was her last post?
it was lovely:
Mustard said...
Isn't it funny how our lives are lived by timing.
Wake up at six, either by force or by nature, lunch by noon, dinner's at seven, bed when you can finally shut down. Mondays suck and on-the-drive-home traffic is terrible. And there are dead lines and time lines and holidays and birthdays and dates you remember and anniversaries you forget and you want every day to be a Saturday.
But even funnier is we struggle to free ourselves from time constraints, and even funnier than that is we'd be lost as hell if we didn't have a watch or a calendar or the sun.
And why do I say all of this? I don't know. It's October, and it might as well be this past January. It seems that as we all get older, the days and years get shorter, and we're all running out of the one thing we didn't want to be reminded of.
It's always like we're slipping through cracks.
Breaking mirrors just to make sure the world is doing its job.
Fearing the lack of wording on our gravestones.
Mad because it takes televisions and radios and fans and noise just to feel okay.
Funny little thing called life, eh?
I know these words. I know them too well. And when they have long been forgotten by the writer and readers, they'll still be tucked away somewhere inside of my head. They'll still be on my tongue and always halfway outside of my heart.
Still waiting on my Saturdays.
Goodnight, Porch. Goodnight, Mayo. And Goodnight, SS.

Hi PP and FASC!
Gosh, reading Mustard's comment from that night just makes me miss her even more.
Thanks for putting that up, FASC.
Happy Wednesday!
Gosh, reading Mustard's comment from that night just makes me miss her even more.
god i know solly!
didn't want to make you sad though.
happy wednesday back to you!
Morning Socky and FASC!
Damn it Mustard, come back to where you are missed!!
haha that is what we call the 3 yr old's willy PP!
Then it's just as well I didn't mention how long and hard I intended to work on my winkie. ;)
Hope you all have a lovely day. =)
Then it's just as well I didn't mention how long and hard I intended to work on my winkie. ;)
haha PP!!!
this is where you disappeared to PP.
i have to go pick up my boy now.
bye everyone.
Morning :)
I iz wearing my extra warm Georgia Bulldogs socks today! With the windchill, it is -30 C this morning!
>_<
I iz wearing my extra warm Georgia Bulldogs socks today! With the windchill, it is -30 C this morning!
fucking hell RW!! cannot comprehend that!
really gone now!
Hi & bye, FASC! :D
Good grief, RW! I'm glad your toes are warm, but it should be against the law to go out on days that freakin cold!!
Just so you know what I posted:
Hiya Mayo and gang (including lurkers, anons, watcher etc.)
I just wanted to stop by and say “hi.” I read through last night’s cluster-fuck of comments. It was quite ugly here for a while and it makes me sad and angry at the same time.
For what it’s worth (and it ain’t worth much) I just wanted to say my piece on the entire mess and then leave it alone. Read if you wish, or scroll through. I don’t really care.
Night Crew, day crew, Lovelies, porchies, bitches, cunts, attention whores, slum princesses, idiots, fat cows, stupid chicks, stalkers, and my favorite - bitter hags, the anons bring out the best and worst in all of us. They bait us, pick us apart, and tear us down. Do I think they care who they hurt? No. That’s their intention. They bring up past problems and beat them to death. I think we’d be closer to a truce of sorts if the anons just shut the hell up.
I think Amy’s “Fix” was very appropriate for her. Did I mind that it was brought to Mayos as a suggestion? No. We all have ideas on how to make things better. That was hers.
The posting of personal information is wrong. I don’t care what your problem is with another person. Take it up with them directly. The fact that the personal information is posted out there is down-right scary. It keeps me from wandering around too far from home. Please stop.
BC copying Kapunua. Whatever. Maybe Kapunua is an inspiration to BC. Maybe it’s the other way around. Don’t know. Don’t care. I think it’s great that they’re both going back to school for a higher education. You couldn’t pay me enough to purposely return to school. Elena has listed some books she has read. I then read them. Does that mean I’m copying her? No. It means that I was willing to try something new. That’s a wonderful thing.
I miss a lot of people here. Some are just “no longer” and others are “no longer participating.” If we could all remember that each post is made by an actual person. Whether the name is in blue or black – there are real thoughts, ideas, and feelings behind those crazy-ass names.
I like hearing about someone’s day, a poem, a story, shared joys or sadness. I like to know what someone’s interpretations are on Mayo’s cryptic posts – even when they are off the wall. I like to see pictures of dogs, birds, dresses, boots, vacations, hair colors and cuts. I like the insane links to music I’ve never heard of or websites I never imagined. I like Mayos with all the mixed personalities. We don’t all get along, but that’s life. Deal with it.
Please nasty anonymous peoples, leave this group alone. Go make your own blog for mean shit stirring.
Thank you.
Comment 102! Booyah!
I am humming the tune Park Life but replacing it with the words 'Pork Life' 0_o
Happy Hump Day Errbody!
Night Night Meffers. Night night Pork. *leaves a daisy chain on the steps*
I wish someone would remove the nail from my head. It kinda hurts a little.
Ya know?
I iz sorry your head is poorly, Solly :(
Me too, RW.
Are you thawed out?
Pretty much :)
I took bus money with me today, but I was able to walk both to and from work, though it was pretty chilly.
Have fun! ^_^
DON'T USE UP ALL THE SOAP!
I did I did, S&V! ^_^ They kept my toesies warm!
Yay! I'm glad, RW! ^_^
Can I just say that I miss PPU like really hard too?
I haven't done this in such a long time...
Solly ♥s PPU
Gotta go shower! Be back later!
If I could catch PPU, I would tie them up and never let them go.
I miss them, too. :(
Poooooh.
Have fun, S&V! :)
DON'T USE UP ALL THE HOT WATER!
Has PPU not been round lately, Solly?
For Solly
Thank you, RW. That makes me feel some better.
PPU hasn't been round here in a couple of months. Everyone is disdappearing.
For S&V
PPU hasn't been round here in a couple of months. Everyone is disdappearing.
I'm sorry :(
Goodnight, Porch.
Sleep extra warm and extra tight!
Morning, Peoples!
Have a lovely Thursday!

i'm kinda loving this at the moment!

hey little solly! you weren't there when i started typing! but i had to pop to youtube! check out my link!
anything with a swear word within the first 5 words usually does it for me!!
HiYa!
Princess Smoke will heart you more than ever, FASC for that link!
Just because it's youtube's fault that I am distracted and can't get dressed...
Broken Boy Soldier
Morning :)
Have a good day, everyone!
Morning!
Broken Boy Soldier!! That's probably my favourite song of theirs, Socky!
Hi ya FASC! You are enjoying some P Prep! Have you found their 'fat' yet? =)
RW, glad to read you had snuggly toes. =) How were the ears?!
Have a great day everyone. =)
Hi guys, I am dying of cold once again. This is getting beyond a joke. Mum has it again too and we cough in unison. We joke that we should set up a coughing band cos we do great harmonies.
Anyway, I went for an interview yesterday for the teaching course ( a little story of it at my blog). It went well but I feel more ill than ever. Going out in the cold is not a good idea for sick people.
I hope you are all well. I think I will stay under my duvet now until the weekend is done.
xxxxx
Thank you Jennicula, FASC, Sis M, PP and everyone who has wished me good wishes. All I can offer in return in a snot filled tissue. Maybe not eh?
I miss moostard and PPU so bad.
I miss all you guys so bad cos what with all these colds and interviews, I haven't spent much time with you all since before crimbo. I hope next week will change that.
(sprays Lysol)
(peeks in)
Miss T, thanks for the offer of a snotty tissue. If you don't mind, I'll pass, but I still hope you feel better soon.
FASC! I ♥ that song!
And because I miss Mustard:
MOOOOTHHHERRRFUUUCCKKKERRR!!!
MissT,
I hope you feel better soon!
Hi to errbody and anybody!
I'm about to leave to go to work! Whoop! Whoop! I'll have only 3 hours today. Niiiice.
Hi ya FASC! You are enjoying some P Prep! Have you found their 'fat' yet? =)
fat and alone PP?
i love that song! i listened to pencey prep a bit a while back, but i'm back into it again now. just that desire to listen to something different. and i kinda love Frank's vocals. he reminds me of some English bands i have seen, and he is obviously not English at all but i dunno the delivery of some of the songs. it's a bit like some of the Bouncing Souls songs sound kinda British to me? i wonder what their influences were. i am sure i hear The Clash in some of those Bouncing Souls songs. but maybe i am insane?!
even the new killers one has been played far too much. i still love it but i must admit, it's like "what can i listen to??!" i should really give SS's Architects a proper go.
href=http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=l06M-dsQf3Q>i quite like this song. it's no.1 in our MTV2 chart.
miss T poor you!! mr bloke is ill too, and he is a miserable bastard when he is ill! but i do get it, you feel like shit!!
hi proncess and Jenn and well everybody!!
have fun evenings everybody!
oh and just so you know, i only swear to make solly smile!!
laters porchies!!
♥
Apparantly, a Canadian rock star lives just up the street from me.
And This chickie has eaten my homemade nacho dip.
And this dude (the drippy one in the big tie) has slept on a crinoline under my desk at university.
RW,
How cool! I only have family and coyotes living beside me! ^_^
FASC,
I do believe SS heard you. :)
Have a good one guys!
^_^
i'm late!!
sorry guys!
princess, that's cool that SS still listens! check that little kid out! must be the same age as ours!! how cool!
did i hear whisper that solly's internet is out?
*waves to solly!
RW i am ignorant, but who are those pictures of? i'm blaming it on me being English! it's the best way! and who is the Canadian rock star?
happy fridays people!
*waves* to solly!

Oh my gosh! You guys are over here. Sis Midnite was right. ^_^ I just don't come here nearly enough. :D And Katherine has been about, too! Hurray!
*is depressed*
I think I'm going to switch programs at my school, and then do the master's of science at a different school. Maybe one closer to home and a little more western.
It's dumb over at Mayo's.
hi porchies!!
hope you get your internet back soon solly!
K i hope you sort your course out to be more convenient to you. i am sure you will!
anyway just popping in to say a big hello!
i am away this weekend to London to visit my friend and her family. so i will catch some of you sunday evening my time!

RW i am ignorant, but who are those pictures of? i'm blaming it on me being English! it's the best way! and who is the Canadian rock star?
T'is this guy, FASC.
The other two are Jennifer Parkin, singer of a band called Ayria (we have a mutual friend), and Jon Epworth (I went to uni with his girlfriend).
Dudes,
I should really post a new blog, huh?
Ah...well...
Hope you all are having a fanterrifictabulous Saturday!
Hi, Solly :)
Hi RW,
Whatchya doin?
I am enjoying the heat and electricity.
Whatchoo doing?
Just a little bit of this and a little bit of that which adds up to not a lot of anything.
Basically waiting on Smoke to see if she wants to go to town this morning. She's feeling icky so I dunno.
She's feeling poorly? Sucks :(
Yeah, she's all snotty and throat sorey and stuffs.
Maybe if she got her very own Mp3 playah she'd feel better.
I was stuck right in the middle of this yesterday.
Mp3 players make everything better!
OMG, RW! How did you stay warm?
Baby does not like snow
I was at work for most of the blackout, Solly. Work is in a different part ofLast night some friends who also live in the blackout neighbourhood & I hung out at a pub eating nachos and drinking coffee until the power came back on at about 9:30pm.
*different part of the city
Ohhhhhhhh, okay, RW. Still, I bet it was very cold!
Smoke is here and she told me I better get my clothes on so we can go to town.
Seeya later!
